Karbon Kounty Moos

What I was doing ten years ago:
Renting a house near a public golf course (and hooting at the bad pants of the patrons of said golf course)
5 years ago:
Working at Luce Press Clippings (now Burrelle’s Luce: have been there since 1990). Also, it was 5 years ago that I bought my car after more than 10 years without one.
1 year ago:Preparing to come up for my 30th Year high school reunion. (West High–had a great time seeing people I hadn’t seen in 10-30 years and, if they’re lucky, will probably never see again.)
Yesterday:
Having a kitchen window repaired (courtesy of The Massive Mangy Mountain of Mutt); to prevent further attempts through that window, I moved the refirgerator in front of it).
Snacks I enjoy:
chocolate bars (Hershey’s or Nestle’s female version–without nuts), Cheese & Breadsticks, potato chips (Pringles No Fat), choclate ice cream, and (Uuuummmm) Donuts!
Songs I know all the words to:
The Star Spangled Banner (but can’t sing it well), O Canada, The Endo of the Innocence, Fields of Gray, and The Way It Is (i’m a Bruce Hornsby fan)
Things I would do with $100 million:
Buy a cabin in the mountains near Flathead Lake, an automoble suitable for the area, then put the rest of the money and live off of the interest.
Locations I would like to run away to:
San Diego, Canada, England, Ireland, Montana (never to return to Arizona)
Bad habits I have:
Eating bad food, drinking too much cola, driving too fast on the freeways (got nailed near Idaho Falls doing 88 mph on the way up a few weeks ago), and digitally excaving my sinuses from time to time.
Things I like doing:
Watching sports on TV and reading.
Things I would never wear:
a necktie (why should I dress up like a typical AZ criminal?) and a dress (cuz it’d be a real drag).
TV shows I like:
Countdown with Keith Obermann (many years ago, when he was a sports anchor at KTLA in Los Angeles, Mr. Obermann was kind enough to critique some of my TV writing and give me some pointers on trying to get into the business), The National (CBC’s nightly news), any hockey telecasts (my most prized posession is a picture of myself with THE Stanley Cup–probably the only time anybody wearing a Coyotes sweater will be seen with Lord Stanley in my lifetime).
Biggest joys of the moment:
Sheba. Period.
Favorite toys:
My computers, my satellite dish, my car.
Next victims:
I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that it might incriminate me. (When I was a cashier at Buttrey’s–now Albertsons–store on 13th and Grand, I used to start each new order I rang up with a cheerful, “Next victim!”)
