Though I recognize it as somewhat egotistical, I often wonder which weird bits of information would be asked about me at bar trivia nights if I ever became famous.  Because I am a worrywart, I am probably overly concerned that people will believe things about me that are not true.  In order to avoid the circulation of bizarre or unflattering fallacies, I have compiled this list of factoids:

• My first CD was an Elvis Presley compilation
