Four Things

Tag four people and spread the love. I was tagged by Julian Rickards.

Four jobs I’ve had in my life

There are actually about twenty. I often say that I have a Chinese Food Menu for a resume. Lots of choice. It is probably more like the list of items on an all-you-can-eat buffet since some of the work that I have done is so unrelated to one another. I have cut down trees for the power company, sold advertising for a magazine, worked as a maintenance person for a country club, a shipping manager for a dental prosthetics lab, and more. I chose the four below based on duration.

  • Subway Sandwich Artist (read fast food worker)
  • Photo Lab Supervisor
  • Executive Assistant for a Consulting Firm
  • Motion Picture and Television Sound Recordist

Four movies I can watch over and over

There are actually about a dozen or so movies I have watched and will continue to watch repeatedly including: Citizen Cane, Rear Window and Dog Day Afternoon (I love Sidney Lumet Films –12 Angry Men, Failsafe…). Here are the four unpretentious flicks for my list.

  • Die Hard Trilogy (Pure Fun) — One and Three are the best. Unpretentious fun. Alan Rickman is one of the best bad guys ever!
  • Raiders of the Lost Ark. I would have said the trilogy but who really watches Temple of Doom. It just plain bites.
  • Jaws. I watch this movie at least four times a year. Never get tired of it.
  • North By Northwest. Cary Grant and Hitchcock — what more can I say

Four places I have lived

Four TV shows I love to watch

Four places I have been on vacation

Four of my favorite dishes

  • Beef Tenderloin w/ shrimp or scallops smothered in Bearnaise
  • Eggs Dostoevsky (Eggs Benedict w/ smoked salmon instead of back bacon)
  • Phad Woon Sen: awesome Thai dish from Satay on the Road in Toronto
  • Malai Kofta: Paneer in Butter Chicken sauce from Bollywood in Toronto (North York), Ontario

Four websites I visit daily

See Four Bloggers I am Tagging. I don’t spend that much time on other sites any more it is too time consuming.

Four places I would rather be right now

Nowhere. I really like where I am. Maybe in a slightly bigger house though.

Not that any of these guys really need more traffic they are just the only blogs I make it a point to read every day.
