Hi folks,
There are some TV/movie characters that I am like. I don't look like these people, but I have many traits in common with them.
Here is the list:
1) The "Gaius Baltar" character from "Battlestar Galactica" (modern version). Actually, I'm a cross between Baltar (mostly) and Tom Zarek (a little bit).
2) The "Spock" character from "Star Trek" (1960s version).
3) The "Doc" character from the "Back to the Future" movies.
4) The "Yoda" character form the "Star Wars" movies.
5) The "Epstein" character from the movie "Biloxi Blues".
6) The "Jason Fox" character from the comic strip "Fox Trot".

Hi folks, I am a VERY weird and strange person (which is typical of Rush fans). When people meet me for the first time, they often ask me where I parked my spaceship. My relatives often say that I am "pretty far out there". Augie

Hi folks, I am a "flatulance king". I have been farting my brains out since the day I was born. When I graduated from high school (Farrell), I was voted "most likely to fart". I think I ripped out more farts in that building than any other student in Farrell's history. When I was in college, my friends and I would often hold "farting contests". We must have held about 500 of them. I won every single one of them. I had 500 victories and zero defeats. No one could ever "out fart" me. I never lost a farting contest in my life. I went away to college, and I lived in the dorms. One of my roommates was in a fraternity. My roommate and his friends and frat brothers couldn't believe how much I farted. They couldn't understand how it could be physically possible that a human being could fart so much. They never saw anything like it before in their entire lives. One of my roommate's friends ("Sav") farted a lot too, but not as much as I did. One day, Sav said to me, "You're the first person I have ever met in my entire life who actually farts more than I do". Sav used to love it when I farted. He'd be hysterical laughing. During my freshman year of college, we had an extra bed in our room. So, many of my roommate's friends and frat brothers would sleep over. We used to have a ball. We'd all be farting our brains out. I believe in the saying: "When in doubt, rip one out!" Augie (continued in next post...)

Hi folks,
I am a very cerebral person. I'm an "academic". You know, the college professor type.
I'm a nerd/geek. I was never any good at sports.

Hi folks,
In this post, I want to discuss my educational background.
I am an alumnus of Msgr. Farrell HS.
I am also a graduate of Adelphi University in Garden City, Long Island, NY, which I attended on a 4-year, full-tuition Presidential scholarship. I went to college for free. I received a BS degree in Physics and Engineering, with a minor concentration in Computer Science. I was a dean's list student there.
I attended graduate school at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI. I was pursuing a master's degree in Aerospace Engineering. That's when I was stricken with my illness. My illness forced me to drop out of school and discontinue my studies. Of course, when I did that, I lost my health insurance.
I have basically been on "welfare" (for lack of a better word) since 1990 - because I need health insurance.

Hi folks, I am an agnostic. To be perfectly honest with you, I'd rather formulate my own "religion" (science) than subscribe to a pre-existing religion. I guess you can call me a "seeker" (of knowledge). No pun intended, Rush fans. I have always been nocturnal (even when I was healthy). Of course, my illness has really screwed up my sleep cycle. Now, I'm "all f**ked up". Augie (continued in next post...)

Hi folks, I am a very blunt and brutally honest person (as most physicists are). I am VERY "up front" with people. I speak the truth - no matter what. I don't care who I offend or whose toes I step on. If you don't like it, then get the f**k out of the room. There's the door. I curse and say the word "f**k" more than just about any other person on the face of this Earth. I like to try to make people laugh. However, sometimes people don't appreciate my style of humor (the Howard Stern style of humor). I wind up pissing people off, but that is not my intention. I'm anal retentive (BIG TIME!!!).

Hi folks, I am VERY anti-social. I always was - even prior to my illness. My illness has made that worse. Once, as a joke, I took a psychological profile test on another Rush board. My "schizoid" reading was off the scale. On a scale from 1 to 10, I was a 100. At times, my personality has been described by other people as "abrasive". People have told me that I have an "unbelievably horrible personality". I guess I'm like Neil Peart in that way. One time, I was out on a date with a girl. She told me that the chair she was sitting in had a better personality than I did. What can I say? Scientists aren't known for their great personalities. I have been called a "creep" numerous times in my life (more than I can count). Augie (continued in next post...)

Hi folks,
I am a VERY confrontational person. I am a person of deep convictions.
I am a fiercely independent person. Of course, my illness has taken much of that away from me. Of course, that infuriates me.
I have had very few friends in my life. I prefer quality over quantity.

Hi folks,
People who know me often joke about my mental state. They say that if I ever went to see a therapist, the therapist would quit. The therapist would have to go see a therapist. ;D
I am neither a leader nor a follower. I am an independent thinker. I blaze my own trail in life.
I have never been the type of person to take the easy way out. I always do the right thing - no matter how difficult it is. I will always choose the difficult path if it is the right thing to do.

Hi folks, I am a VERY logically-thinking person. I am the type of person that, as long as something is logical, I can understand it. It could be something that is beyond the comprehension of 99.99% of the people on the face of this Earth. But, as long as it is logical, I can understand it. But if something is illogical, I can't understand it. It could be something that is so simple that a 5-year old child can understand it. But if it is illogical, I can't understand it. Maybe that's part of the reason why I never had a girlfriend in my life. Women are VERY illogical creatures. I can't understand them. Augie (continued in next post...)
