Kassi has tagged me with a meme. Being a good blog neighbor, I am graciously responding. I'm always honored when anyone remembers that I exist, especially since I don't get around to other blogs as much as I once did. So, here's the subject of the meme:
I've been infected with a virus to reveal 10 things about myself that are otherwise unknown.
Okay. Here goes.
- When I was a young boy, I was convinced that I could levitate. I'm pretty sure that I was mistaken.
- Ang Lee's Sense and Sensibility makes me weep at several spots. It's beautiful.
- I have my late grandfather's glass eye in a little case in my closet.
- The first thing I ever learned to cook was French toast. I ate it with butter and syrup, as God intended. People who eat French toast with powdered sugar or fruit are tools of the Devil.
- I was terrified by Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory when I was a kid.
- Being out of town too much is less than optimal. The last hug I gave, for instance, was to a toilet. I need to hug my wife and kids soon (I've showered).
- The 1000th comment on this blog will be on this post.
- I'm not a Pepper and would not like to be one too.
- In a high school talent show, I helped out a friend who was lip-syncing the John Lennon song Imagine. I pretended to play the drums. I later found out that the drummer on the studio version of John Lennon's Imagine was named Allen White, which is my name (I spell it Allan). I'm sure this means something, but I'm not sure what it means. (You may say I'm a drummer, but I'm not the only one.)
- I can't wear shades. I just feel so silly wearing them. The sun really doesn't bother me.
Okay. That's it. Now I'm supposed to tag (infect) 10 other people. Here goes:
- The Pope (not this one, the old one)
- Pete's Dragon
- The Gooch
- The Singers Behind Milli Vanilli
- Leather Tuscadero
- Loki, God of Mischief
- The Land Shark
- Karate Legend Bolo Yeung
- The Ghost of Richard Pryor
- The Devil
Of course, if any of you want to share 10 things, I'd love to hear them.
Later. Love.
