Seen too many places to recall, and I'm too tired to answer any of them, but I'll toss this out anyhow:

Nicked from all over my flist.

How many times has someone on your friends list posted about something and you were really confused, but you didn't want to ask because you knew you SHOULD know? How many times have you felt 'guilty' asking a close LJ friend a question that should be 'obvious'?

Well, here's your chance. If you've missed a few things, missed an entry and are confused, ask me anything. Even something EXTREMELY basic, like where I live! I'm not allowed to get even slightly irritated at any of the questions - we've all missed things before.

If you like the idea, feel free to post in your journal.

[Yes - this can be as basic as 'who the heck are you again and how did you end up on my friends list?']

Why "Kitanzi" then?

[davehogg.livejournal.com]

Do you actually exist?

It's just a word I made up ages ago for introducing myself to cats that I didn't know. (Yeah, I'm weird, you knew that.) I eventually named a cat that, and the cat went missing just about the time I started discovering BBSes. Thus, Kitanzi. I didn't find out it was a real Swahili word until much later, and I still have no idea how they pronounce it.

Only sometimes.

What does it mean in Swahili?

When will I see you again?

In the upper left hand corner of the screen, click on the Swahili - English radio button, type kitanzi in the Translate box, click on Look Up.

Noose or rope, I forget which offhand.

The next time we happen to be at the same convention? :)
