And the lesson boys and girls? Watch what you put online because not everyone who reads it is identified to you. Be careful out there, netizens.

TAG: Tens, Fives and Ones

Tagged by Mossy Stone. Enjoy.

10 Years ago I was: I was dropping my paper route and going to computer school (P955 rocks!).

5 years ago I was: My DW won a week long, all expenses paid vacation to Hawaii on the Canoe website. Oh, and I was let go from CDI.

1 year ago I was: doing pretty much what I am doing now.

Yesterday I was: Royally pissed off at the $2100 bill the back glass on the Roo was costing me to fix, stupid people I had to call colleagues and idiot folks I had to call clients.

Five snacks I enjoy:

1. Cheesy Poofs? Nah, actually cheese with anything.
2. Social Tea Cookies.
3. Peak Freens Fruit Cremes.
4. Crunch and Munch.
5. Twizzlers.

Five songs to which I know all the lyrics:

1. "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" - Cyndi Lauper
2. "True" - Spandau Ballet
3. "Rapper's Delight" - The Sugarhill Gang
4. "Tainted Love" - Soft Cell
5. "The Logical Song" - Supertramp

Five things I would do with $100 Million:

1. Hire an accountant and set ten percent aside as house money only.
2. Trust funds for friends and families kids, including education tie-ins.
3. Set up a foundation to help those who need it most with the idea that they will in turn pay it forward.
4. Set up businesses to generate funds to make the foundation a perpetual engine.
5. Enjoy the freedom. Include a vacation pool for friends and family to join us in the mirth.

Five places to run away:

1. St. Martin
2. Places unknown in Canada (by sea plane or Range Rover only)
3. New Zealand
4. Trinidad (if I can afford the dogs and the guards)
5. Everett (where is that you ask? Exactly.)

Five bad habits:

1. Procrastination.
2. Pack rat.
3. Nail biting.
4. Lazy.
5. Geek (ok, more an expensive habit this one).

Five things I would never wear:

1. Puffy shirt.
2. Clothes whose name, not its quality, is the reason for the price.
3. Velour.
4. Speedo.
5. Thong/bikini underwear.

Five favourite TV shows (have to split this):
Old:
1. Star Trek OG/TNG/DS9/Vger/Ent
2. Babylon 5
3. M*A*S*H
4. Perry Mason
5. Cosby

Current:
1. CSI OG/NY/Miami
2. Law and Order OG/SVU/CI
3. Surface tied with Grey's Anatomy
4. Animation Domination on Fox Sundays
5. The Young and the Restless (Victor Newman is my idol)

Five biggest joys in my life:

1. DW and TC, goes without saying. Family in general.
2. Driving any long distance with tunes and no traffic.
3. Teaching.
4. Close friendships.
5. Life itself.

Five favourite toys:

1. Computers. Too numerous to mention or to choose just one (without hurting the others' feelings). Shout out to the Quad though.
2. Game consoles. Dreamcast/PS2/Xbox/Xbox-modded. Damn you Nintendo; hurry up and drop that price.
3. Kenwood MASK head unit in DW's ride (with changer, amp and speakerbox, natch).
4. Philips Pronto Neo remote. Still to be properly configured though.
5. HK AVR500 Receiver. A gift from the DW one year and the centrepiece of the loud room; AKA Theatre (DW calls it the "livingroom" for some reason).

Who?

Captain McKenzie Calhoun
Mackenzie Calhoun- You are the wild man of
Starfleet. You love outwitting oponents by
doing the one thing they wouldn't expect from a
Starfleet ship... fighting dirty. Of course
to get away with your craftiness, you only
exist in books. Doesn't matter, you're much
cooler than Archer. Some people say you're a
self righteous SOB. They might be right, but
you don't give a damn.


Which Star Trek Captain are you?
