10. Your favorite movie before 1970?
I’m not a “favorite movie” guy. Hard not to like His Girl Friday, or Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, or Casablanca, or Rear Window, or (just seen for the first time last year) Gone With the Wind (yes, I managed to avoid it all this time… damn, it was great), or Singin’ in the Rain, or It’s a Wonderful Life… but the “old” movie I often try to get people to see is The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer (1947), starring Cary Grant and Myrna Loy (and teen-age Shirley Temple, when she was rather attractive), and which won the Oscar for Sidney Sheldon’s screenplay:

11. Are you a good or lousy tipper?
Very good. You want me at your station… just make sure you do you job.
12. What vices do you have that get you through a bad day?
TV & pizza
13. Favorite TV Drama?
Hmmm… see #10. But when pressed, seasons one through four (the Aaron Sorkin years) of The West Wing. The writing in some of those episodes actually gets me misty sometimes.
14. Who is your favorite Tanga Team Member? ;)
Uh… all of them? Yeah, that’s it.
15. Last thing you made with your own two hands?
Dinner.

LOL, too many!

Last week, actually. In my Letterboxing logbook.

Pen: Uni•ball Micro blue

On average… around three.

No one. But I’m sure there are people out there who have made me their archenemy. I have a… “strong” personality.
25. What is the one thing you can’t live without?
Companionship. I could never live somewhere remote. I’m a total city boy.
