Spice Up Your Biography

Posted September 21st, 2006 by Playtah

People who write biographies often have to search through many documents about their subjects.  Probably the most fun ones are the personal documents like diaries, journals, day planners, etc.  You can learn a lot about people by reading what they’ve written. 

With this in mind, I think if I ever get famous, I’m going to have fun with this idea and purposely try to throw off those who will later shuffle through my writings, day planners, etc. as they write a tell-all biography about me.  This won’t require blatant lies….just some creative re-wording.  If I have a chiropractor appointment to adjust my back on Monday, my day planner will say, “Monday–Crack House.”  If I have to have my dog spayed at 3:00, instead of wrting “Spay The Dog–3:00″, I’ll just write, “STD–3″.  If I’m writing about how I took my boyfriend William Mervin Davis spelunking, my entry might say, “Took WMD to the cave outside of town.”  That way, instead of a back-pain sufferer who cares about animals and enjoys a good natural rock formation with people she loves, my biographical image gets upgraded to a drug addict with a contagious trifecta and terrorist connections.

New York bestseller list, here I come.

 

Of course, this will seriously hinder my goal of having an orphanage named after me.

    Don’t forget, inventor of the SquatNCHat. Also the one who taught my cat Smokey to drive the car. And the co-author of the Timmy and the geese saga…..o sculptress of chicken bones and carrot sticks.

    And of course I’ll get to document our Flockin-Eh site…and then reword that in your bio to let people know that you were a key hidden member in ordering flocks for our delicious KFC meals.

    …I’ll take mine extra crispy! Hold the coleslaw please…

    Hmmm … I’ve been reading a few of your posts, and I detect a strong SA (Scott Adams) influence on your writing… Join the club!
