The Rule of Four

Hey, it's a Sunday night. Sue me. From Jordana over at Curmudgeonry.

Four Jobs I've Had:

Coal shoveler/boiler feeder
Traffic directing guy
Security guard
Con Law professor

Four Movies I Watch Over and Over Again:
Capricorn One (Come on, Sam Law & Order Waterson, Orenthal James Simpson, and Mister Barbra Streisand as astronauts on a doomed mission to Mars? How can you NOT watch this movie over and over again)

Escape from New York (Plisskin? I thought you were dead!)

High Plains Drifter

Cool Hand Luke

(Movies I wind up watching over and over again):

The Care Bears Learn About Safety (thanks a butt-load for that one, Rob!)
Air Bud: World Pup

Four Places I've Lived:

Burlington, MA
East Lyme, CT
Middletown, CT
Charlottesville VA

What can I say, I'm freaking the Vasco de Gama of world travel and living.

Four T.V. Shows I Watch:

Repeats of Magnum P.I. (but of course)
CSI: Des Moines (they had to dig pretty deep into the Who's songbook to get the cover: you'd never think "Squeezebox" would fit into the whole CSI genre, but hey, it works)
NCIS (Yes, I like watching Mark Harmon and no, that doesn't make me gay)
Medium (Okay, okay, Patricia Arquette is hot, I can admit that--but I like the whole dynamic she and her husband have on the show).

Four Places I've Been on Vacation:

Again, I'm Vasco freakin' de Gama.

This summer we're going to Glacier National Park, does that count?

Four Websites I Visit Daily:

Average week? Insty, Allahpundit (just to see if he's come again, the rat bastard), Ace of Spades (lately), Dave Barry blog.

Four Favorite Foods:

homemade clam chowder
fresh calamari
smoked bluefish (hickory wood and very spicy brown mustard)
Schwaan's Man self-rising pizza

Four Places I'd Like to Be Right Now:

Sunday night? Keys and key codes? I'd love to be able to have free reign in the National Archives, one night, flashlight, digitial camera, a huge memory card and lots and lots of batteries. Okay, that makes me an extreme geek.

Vegas (trying to undo the damage from the National Archives/Mark Harmon revelations)



Four Bloggers I'm Tagging:

Chai-Rista, you're up!

Re: Capricorn One...I thought I was the only person on the planet to own this DVD... I love this horrible little movie for exactly the same reasons you mentioned...

There is nothing little about this princely gem in the film oevre of Orenthal James Simpson.
