The ABC's Of Me

A is for Apple
I dislike Apple products. It's not that I think they are poor quality products. I simply resent the notion that they are far superior to all other such items.

B is for bathrobe
I prefer to use the bathrobe as a towel substitute.

C is for Cookie
The only real cookies are chocolate chip and Oreos. Chocolate chip for homemade, Oreo for store-bought.

D is for documentaries.
I watch at least one a week.

E is for eating.
I effort to eat whole foods as often as possible.

F is for fishing, Facebook, and friends
I enjoy fishing and the connection to creation it provides.
Facebook and Friends are not one and the same. One of them sucks, the other does not.

G is for Giants. New York Giants

H is for homeschooling.
We are going to give it a shot.

I is for Imus.
No single person in popular culture has influenced me more.

J is for Jersey and Juice.
Jersey blows. Not cool enough to be NYC, not country enough to be PA.
Juice is very cool.

K is for Kris.

L is for Letterman and Lawyer.
Letterman is better than Leno. Duh.
If I had the patience for the classroom, I would have been a lawyer.

M is for movies and music
Most movies bore me these days. I think there is a shortage of creative talent in that business
I prefer music that is driven by piano, over guitar.

N is for NYC, the greatest city in the world.

O is for Orthopedics, the only important area of medicine.

P is for photos
I enjoy taking photographs. I wish I understood more about the art.

Q is for Quote
My favorite quote: "There is no greater love than to lay down one's life for one's friends"

R is for Ron Paul.
Everyone else is full of Sh*t

S is for shower.
I take at least two showers per day. Sometimes three.

T is for "That's what she said" and television.
Funniest shows ever: M*A*S*H* and Seinfeld.

U is for utensils.
I prefer a small fork, no matter the fare.
Soup spoons are lame.

V is for volleyball
I did just fine in my day.

W is for the W hotel, and good times had there.

X is for Xiphiod process.
I have one, do you?(no Google searches!)

Y is for Young'uns
We gotz two

Z is for Zero
I have Zero tolerance for lateness

What are some of your ABC's?
