ME ME ME MEME

The following MEME was tagged unto me by my hot blog friend Bambi, who got it from Nikki, who got it from... OK, I don't know who Nikki got it from. My bad.

And Bambi darling, sorry if a couple of my answers are the same or similar to yours... great minds think alike!

Things I would like to do before I die
1. Be a singer in a band.
2. Get some of my songs recorded by a famous singer or group.
3. Run for Governor.
4. Travel to Ireland, Scotland and Australia.
5. Give some stranger a new car like Elvis used to do.

Things I CAN NOT do
1. Turn my back on someone who needs my help.
2. Carry a grudge (y'know, life's just WAY too short to lug around that kind of negativity).
3. Whistle loudly (like people do in movies when they're hailing a cab).
4. Tolerate traffic jams. I would go 20 miles out of my way to avoid sitting in traffic.
5. A somersault. (Well, if I want to avoid traction, that is.)

Things I CAN do
1. Program a computer (hey, a bachelor's degree, many thousands of tuition dollars, and eight years' experience have to mean SOMETHING).
2. Cook just about any breakfast food.
3. Impressions (including Kermit the Frog, Bullwinkle, and Bill Clinton).
4. Play guitar (though not very well).
5. Give a decent massage (not a professional, just a pretty good amateur).

Things that attracted me to my wife [Not currently married, so we'll say NEXT wife, if and when I find her]
1. Nice hair. Used to be "long hair", but I have softened that stance over the years. Still, she must take good care of her hair.
2. Great sense of humor. I like to laugh, and make other people laugh, too.
3. Affection. I am a very loving, affectionate person, and I seek that in a mate as well.
4. Nice, honest smile.
5. Someone who seeks ways to accomplish something, as opposed to reasons not to.
[Now see, I was a gentleman and didn't say "nice rack".]

Things I say most often
1. That's interesting.
2. You gotta be kidding me!
3. Groovy, baby (in my best Austin Powers voice).
4. Oh freaking well.
5. Jello (instead of "hello").

Books I love to read
1. Catch-22
2. Firestarter
3. The Dead Zone
4. The Stand
5. just about anything else by Stephen King

Movies I love
1. The Matrix
2. The Wizard of Oz
3. It's A Wonderful Life
4. The Ten Commandments
5. Animal House
6. Caddy Shack
7. Jaws
8. Forrest Gump
9. Grosse Pointe Blank
10. Die Hard

I hereby tag Jami and Samantha... unless they're too busy, in which case, I'll let them off the hook.
