Hi Lenore, I've been lurking around LJ for, like, forever, and liked you writing even longer :) so I'm willing to do a pinky-swear that I'm not your: member of family, future or ex- spouse, pet, coworker, neighbor, the freak who ran into you on the street the other day, Charlton Heston, a member of KKK, or your long-lost twin. (aren't you relieved? )
