A Bunch of Useless Information

I first saw this at Songbird's place and then over at Jay's. Thought I'd give it a go as well.

Sorry I can't give credit to the originator of it, because I'm not sure who that is. I'm also not tagging anyone, but if you'd like to bare your soul to a million or so of your closest friends, then by all means go for it.

It's called the Layer Meme, I have no idea why.
