AHA! I guess I should have known that...

what were you handcuffed for?

"115. Seen Siouxsie live (WHO?)" = Siouxie and the Banshees. A goth/punk band.

What languauge did/do you speak fluently?

I was handcuffed at the beginning of the semester by a campus security guard, so I don't figure that counts as fully being arrested. That's as close to the edge as I've come, as far as I remember. Handcuffs have been involved in recreational activities, but I'm quite sure that's not the same! ;)

I think I've heard of Siouxsie and the Banshees. Aren't they British?

I speak Spanish pretty well, though I've found it's eluding me since I don't use it daily. I didn't consider myself fluent until I tested out of all the Spanish classes at my university and I was asked to actually teach a Spanish class a couple of years ago for high school students.
