I have to disqualfy myself because I know the answer.
Oops! Disqualify
The UFO, it's the UFO!!!! No wait a second, let's see...well, you do have that EBay account...I never saw you selling a copy of The Watch Tower...there was the little incident with the FBI a few years back so the firearms might be true...No body would admit to meeting Ben Stiller...was the bulimia thing during your Kate Moss phase?...I KNOW you were married twice, but before I met you, who knows what the hell you were doing...shark bit makes sense, all kinds of wild life like to attack you...struck by lightning twice, hmmm, nah! Not even you have that kind of bad luck...
I say you were born in a UFO that was hovering above Italy and your nurse maid was a midget who went on to guest star on Seinfeld. Oh, and every year you are grand marshal of the UFO abuductee parade in that town in New Mexico where area 51 is located!!!!
I go with the Grand Marshall of the parade. Was I close?
After reading through your archives, Joe, I'm going to guess the degree in parapsychology. What's my prize?
Pax,
no UFO abduction. I threw that one in there just to throw you off.
Lost,
No grand marshall.
Madcapmum,
Given all the "ironies" in my life, I have a strong interest in parapsychology but no degree.
Hmmm ok you own a US patent.
OK Freudian I will go along with Pax that you were abducted by the aliens, cause I saw you there!! Nah, I just know the answer is that you are a Jehovah'. I have known you for years even seen body parts most people havent seen so I know you are the Jehovah witness!!!

I say you don't have a photographic memory. You may have a great memory, but studies have shown that there is no such thing as a photographic memory (I know this because I DO have a degree in psychology).
Ooops, pushed enter too soon. I think the truth is you dated a midget who guest starred on Seinfeld.
How did I do?
I need to honor my country,so I choose number 14 born in Italy.
Ciao! chi
Thought that lightening never strikes twice. We cheated and went to the "Vault" to try and obtain the inside dirt. No luck! With your bee keeper's suit I could see how exploring lifeforms would mistake your for an interesting parapsychologist and take you aboard to empty your photographic memory.
joe, in the interest of fun, i offered to help with this friendly competition. however, i was not certain about the answer. the vault's best guess is... better not give it away just yet.
Ciao! Cia, You are very close to being right with the wrong answer. Are you confused, now? Well.....he was conceived in Italy, this is the truth.
What a wonderful dialogue we have going here. This is starting to feel like a blog.
Aunt Bubby,
For Christ sakes, I am not a Jehovah Witness.
Erin,
Your guess of me dating a midget put you on the SHORT end of the stick. No photographic memory but we have something in common. My bachelor's degree is in psychology.
Chi,
You give great honor to your country even without your guess.
Lost,
Sounds like a patented answer.
Zelda,
Cheaters never prosper. I haven't even been struck by lightning once.
Vault,
Only Geraldo Rivera can open you on a cheesy made for TV special.
Funny, no one figures that you could be the valedictorian of your class!
Anonymous,
That slight did not escape me.
And the winner is...I own a US patent #5,159,941 for the invention of a locking ashtray similar to the goosenecked traps seen outside stores, hospitals, and offices.
*whew*
I was worried it was the Jehova Witness thingie.
Tony,
I was worried I boarded a UFO!
