Back In The Day and Five: The Meme


Back in town from Philly, and this is an easy way to start it out. Carla made me do it:

Ten years ago: Lived and loved pretty hard.
Five years ago: Celebrated the new millenium.
One year ago: I was celebrating a new birthday and having a good time doing it.
Yesterday: Was in Philadelphia, Pennsyvania at a friend's house and in Wilmington, Delaware at a BBQ, listened to enough old school music to do two radio blogs, watched more episodes of Good Times than I should have, and decided to not go to a concert and hung out with friends instead.
Today: Took a plane back home, talked on the phone with a couple of friends, took a long nap.
Tomorrow: I’ll be back at work and catch up on television that I missed this past weekend.
5 snacks I enjoy: Sun Chips, Krispy Kreme Donuts, Cashews, Chocolate Chip Cookies, Little Debbie's Nutty Bars.
5 bands that I know the lyrics of most of their songs: Not much of a lyrics type of guy, since I listen to so much music, but I recite lyrics to a lot of Mint Condition, Prince, The Time.
5 things I would do with $100,000,000: Payoff the house, all remaining bills, open up a computer consulting firm, set up a charity, and save the rest.
5 locations I’d like to runaway to: In no order: Chicago, The Bay Area, London, Hawaii, Toronto.
5 bad habits I have: Dirty clothes where they shouldn't be, forget to clean the sink after shaving, driving until I see the gas light come on instead of filling up in advance, purchasing music like a crack fiend, reading blogs when I should be sleeping.
5 things I like doing: Watching TV, reading blogs, working, purchasing music and listening to music.
5 things I would never wear: thongs, bras, polyester, lycra, rings.
5 TV shows I like: The Amazing Race, Star Trek series, 4400, Battlestar Galactica, CSI.
5 movies I like: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, The Incredibles, New Jack City, Fight Club, The Matrix.
5 famous people I’d like to meet: Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis, Prince, Bill Clinton, Bill Withers.
5 biggest joys at the moment: Television, reading, hanging out with friends, listening to music, and being a technogeek.
5 favorite toys: As a kid: Spirograph, Lite Brite, Perfection, Lego, GI Joe.
5 people to tag: Todd, Obi, Luke Cage, **RPM**, and Terecico. Anyone else who wants to play, please go ahead.

EJ you missed a good show. I coud've done without John Legend. But Common handled business, put it down, gave his heart to Philly. Good show. For my take check out www.terecico.typepad.com.
