Argh! I've Been Tagged!

Kari has tagged me! I think I've actually done this one before, but I'll do it again. By the way, Kari, your BetaBlogger thingy looks really good! I've been resisting a switch because I'm a techno-idiot, and I'm afraid I'll lose everything. Was it painful to switch?

4 Jobs I have Had

1. Composition Instructor for freshmen at the university I'm currently attending. A thankless job. Definitely its own reward.
2. Grand Exalted Poobah of Literacy. OK, I'm the assistant to the director, but I can pretty much call myself anything but "director," so I choose this. :p
3. Answering calls for U.S. Immigration. The worst job I have ever had in my entire life.
4. 3rd shift waitress at the local truckstop. Didn't last long. I quit when they found the dead prostitute.

4 Movies I would Watch Over and Over

1. The Maltese Falcon with Humphrey Bogart

2. Murder on the Nile

3. Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee

4. Casino Royale. The new Bond did not disappoint me. He's perfect! Hot, hot, hot!

4 TV Shows.


I'm addicted to Reality TV. Here's what I've loved and am currently loving...

1. Flavor of Love (so sad, it's over now...)

2. Beauty and the Geek

3. The Unit. I absolutely love this show

4. Survivor...I watch it because of the gorgeous Asian guy, Yul.

4 Places I Have Visited

1. Mexico City, DF, Mexico. A great time. In spite of everything.

2. New York, New York. Bright Lights, Big City. Happy Contemplator.

3. Florida. Dante's paternal family lives there. Very warm. Too warm.

4. Houston, Texas on the Greyhound bus ride from hell. Think no air conditioning, people so packed in I was sitting on my travel partner's lap, 110 degrees of heat outside for over 2 hours. Talk about a bonding moment.

4 Favourite Foods.

1. Tiramisu, the Italian dessert I'd kill someone over. Fortunately, I can make it myself.

2. Pork Lo Mein. With a Dr. Pepper.

3. Katzu. A Japanese dish with pork, egg, & rice

4. Basalmic chicken. At least this one I can fix myself without too much fuss.

4 Websites I visit daily.


1. Fundies Say The Darndest Things Because they do. And when they do, it's really funny.

2. The Undesirable Element

3. Doc's Sunrise Rants

4. Does your e-mail main page count??


4 Bloggers I would Like to Respond if they can...

1. Justin

2. Airwolf

3. Jo, if she's feeling well

4. Kixque

Good luck! Please let me know if you’ve decided to do this as well. I look forward to reading your posts

Since Justin is very Airwolf, this post is a two-fer!

The dead prostitute sounds like a great post waiting to happen.

And I also feel more driven to update my blog more often. I've been going for a weekly deal, but now I find out you visit every day, and the stat counter says that I'm getting 20 visitors that are coming from your page. I think your groupies are crossing over to me. :)

I still want: Top 4 dramatic songs about barnyard animals!

Yea! Here come the Rooster!

TUE

I think taking calls for immigration sounds even more interesting than dead prostitutes. You should throw your citizen around and talk some crack about that.

Number of visas needed for Canadian toilets: 5

Kixque: I appreciate it. We continue to have more and more in common...

Justin: quit hogging the Airwolf title for yourself. And as you'll discover, it pays to play nice with me. I can't promise you some nuts won't cross over, though. Also, I'm sure "Undesirable Element" makes people insanely curious. The prostitute story isn't very interesting, as I, unfortunately, wasn't the one who found her.

meg: I'd forgotten that Jo finally got her house! That's been a big dream for her, and I'm sooo happy she finally got to realize it! Give her all the best from me.

ncspearsonperson: Meh. Some of the more unusual lines also included: "I'd like to hide someone in my basement. What form do I file?"

I also have no clue about anything computer related. The switch was pretty painless. The only thing is that you need to copy all your links because they do NOT transfer. You have to re-enter them. The only reason I switched was because I heard they are planning on making everyone switch over eventually anyway.

BTW, thanks for doing this meme even if you did already do it. I guess it was before I started reading your blog. Sorry.

And Justin, I am one of the ones that have crossed over to checking out your blogs. I figured since I enjoy your comments, I will probably enjoy your blog. :-)

Kari--do you mean all the sidebar links? I don't have to save my previous posts, do I? Will those go over naturally? If it does, I may try to upgrade to a beta blogger this weekend!

You do not lose your posts, just your sidebar links. With the Beta, you will only need the name and link. You won't have to copy and paste the codes that we needed to before. It's easier, just time consuming when you've got quite a few links to add to your sidebar.

I actually like that you can change your color scheme and the order things are in (on your sidebar). It was pretty fun for me. Have fun.
