6 Random Things

Children in the Corn tagged me for the 6 random things quest.  Here is my go at it:

  • I am learning to play violin – though a friend says he’s never seen anyone smile playing violin…he assures me I should play fiddle because everyone smiles while playing fiddle!
  • I don’t like hot chocolate but I drank many cups of it while wooing my wife in college.
  • I have three degrees:   B.A., M.A., M.S. for which I am still paying.
  • I am an Eagle Scout
  • I love Big Band music more than any other type
  • I grew up in a small town of around 500 people…not a single stop light in the entire county.

I don’t know a lot of folks who would likely complete this so I will tag “Anonymous”.  If you want to participate, please do.  I think it is pretty fun to read random stuff about other people.  Let me know if you do a post…

Now, since I am onto random, here are some more random things:

  • I am home with Abigail today as she is sick.
  • By profession, I am a software engineer but I would love to live a more simple life.  I think I could easily be a full-time farmer…if it would pay the bills.
  • I love hot weather.
  • My favorite cake is red velvet
  • I have been stung hundreds of times by bees.  It barely even hurts any more.
  • My favorite movie is probably Unforgiven with Clint Eastwood.  I also like the BBC version of Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice.
  • M*A*S*H is the all time best tv program ever followed by Dukes of Hazzard and Airwolf

That’s all for now!
