Bio I don't remember who I was before. You ever hear an interview with one of these guys that wins the lottery and keeps his crappy janitor job?
"Has the money changed you?"
"Not at all."
Only dead people don't change. If you have a ham sandwich for lunch, you are a different person than if you had turkey. If you just get up and go into work one more gawddamn day, then you are different than if you blow it off and go to the beach.
I know facts and events about what I have done. That is the "Kings and Battles" approach to history, though. I can't really remember being a different person, and having any different opinions. I always thought that was Bill Waterson's hook - he genuinely remembered what it was like to be a kid, and could remind you, a bit.
That is what Bios make me think of.
