Me Me Me… ALL about me!

The rules are:

  1. The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
  2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
  3. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5-6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
  4. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answer.

1) What was I doing 10 yrs ago?

1998? I was working for KSRV (it was a country station back then) in Ontario, OR. I hosted the Morning show by ‘98. One of the memories that springs to mind: I was serving as ‘Substitute Pastor’ for a small rural church. One of the church ladies heard a pre-recorded comedy bit on my show. Apparently Roy D. Mercer was not her ‘cup o’ tea’. She called the district and complained about my questionable morals (if only she knew). That ended up being the last time I ever filled a pulpit in an Assemblies of God church.

2) What are 5 things on my to-do list for today (not in any particular order):

  1. Think of going to church — didn’t go
  2. Take the kids swimming — 2 hours of bliss
  3. Catch up on the Google Reader — Check
  4. Post something — Doing it now
  5. Get some stuff together for errands tomorrow (day off) — kinda did.

3) Snacks I enjoy:

Orville Redenbacher’s 100-calorie Smart-Pop and the cross i have to bear… Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups

4) Things I would do if I were a billionaire:

  1. Pay off all my debts
  2. Pay off the debts of my immediate family (in-laws included)
  3. Endow trust’s so that ALL of my kids and my nieces and nephews can go to any college they want
  4. Endow a scholarship at Northwest for C average students who aren’t involved up the wazoo in all those ‘looks good on the resume’ clubs.
  5. I would become Oregon State University’s Sugar Daddy in the spirit of Phil Knight.
  6. Buy one of these
  7. Give $5 million to the Presidential Candidate that grows a set and says what we NEED to hear.

5) Three of my bad habits:

  1. Spending time online instead of with my family.
  2. Driving a bit too aggressively.
  3. Becoming obsessive with my current obsession.

6) 5 places I have lived:

  1. Born in Salem, OR
  2. Ontario, OR
  3. Corvallis, OR
  4. Kirkland, WA
  5. Pendleton, OR

7) 5 jobs I have had: (there is a related meme in the on-deck circle)

  1. Dishwasher at King’s Table
  2. Pizza Delivery for Pizza Hut
  3. Radio DJ
  4. 7th grade Teacher at a Christian School
  5. Mental Health Worker

8 ) 5 peeps I wanna know more about:

  1. Chris
  2. Robin
  3. Bryan
  4. Rev. Todd
  5. Charles

  1. Hey JT, as much as I’d *love* to do this one again I’ve already done it here… http://emeraldcityguy.wordpress.com/2008/03/28/is-it-a-meme-or-must-more-fodder-for-my-stalkers/

    :)

  2. #5 on “Things I Would Do If I Were A Billionaire” *snort*

  3. Jon – You wouldn’t perchance be a *uck fan?

  4. Only by default, John, since I work for the Swoosh. ;)

  5. Nothing wrong with that. As a GOOD Oregonian, I am wearing 3 “Swoosh” products right now.

    If I had the means, my wardrobe would be made almost entirely of “Swoosh” and Columbia.

  6. Oooh, you said the “C” word.
