Good grief! I hardly blog at all, and here I’ve been tagged. I’m it. And not the it from the eBay ads, just “it.”
Okay, what the heck. Four of this and four of that—petits fours … pour vous et vous seulement (and you know who vous are).
Four jobs I’ve had:
- Visa gofer (the travel document, not the credit card sapsucker)
- Road crew technician (i.e., repaired berms)
- Managing editor (Quantum magazine)
- Webslave (“Webmaster” is such a misnomer …)
Four movies I can watch over and over:
- Midnight Run (“I’ve got two words for you …”)
- Major League (“Hats for bats …”)
- Adaptation (“Craaaaaaazy white man …”)
- Manhattan Murder Mystery (“Never bluff a bluffer …”)
Four TV shows I love:
- The Office (UK version)
- Scrubs
- The Daily Show (makes me almost wish I had cable …)
- Boston Legal
Four highly regarded and recommended TV shows I haven’t seen:
- The Office (US version)
- Desperate Housewives
- I’m Stuck [not the name of a show — Ed.]
- Really Out of It [id.]
Four places I’ve vacationed:
- Cape Cod, Massachusetts
- Outer Banks, North Carolina
- Rehobeth, Delaware
- Cleveland, Ohio (ha, ha!)
Four of my favorite dishes:
- Spaghetti with meatballs à la Mama Weber
- Spaghetti with meatballs the next day
- Memories of spaghetti with meatballs
- Anticipation of you-know-what
Four sites I visit daily:
Four places I’d rather be right now:
- Under a tin overhang during a downpour
- In front of a Pollock, Remedios Varo, Magritte, or Vermeer
- Next to a badger (or a newt, in a pinch)
- Inside a quark (that just can’t be the smallest bit there is—as the little old lady might have said, “It’s energy all the way down”)
Four bloggers I’m tagging:
- Neural Pathways
- George & Slothrop’s Excellent Adventures
- Grace Upon Grace
- Newsrack Blog (tagging you right back, you son-of-a-Danish-cartoonist)
