I can tell you something you probably don't know about me, I sorta think that is the only thing I know that you don't, LOL Smartie pants. :) I lived without electricity or running water or central heat for 3 years in New Hampshire when I was young.
Ernest Hemingway and James Joyce not only knew each other, but were good friends - Hemingway treated a lot of his friends poorly, but liked Joyce to the end.
And in the movie The Old Man and the Sea, Hemingway though Spencer Tracy was (paraphrasing) a fat actor playing the role of a thin Cuban.

I went to high school with a guy who ended up in the Matthew Good Band.
I went to university with a guy who ended up as an astronaut.
