Apparently I've been "tagged"...This is all new to me, so I apologize in advance...But apparently this is what you're supposed to do in the event you find yourself having been "tagged"....
1. I am illegitamately related to Sir Walter Raleigh...I can't prove it, but my mom-mom can...
2. My first time ever in a plane was the very same day I jumped out of a plane. Only a tandom, but I have been skydiving...Would I again?...Perhaps, not likely, but perhaps.
3. The years of 1992-1996 were an incredibly important time in my life...Having just moved away from home for the first time ever, the friends I made in Virginia Beach were my new family away from home...The music on the radio during this time was stuff like Counting Crows, Gin Blossoms, The Cranberries, Hootie & The Blowfish, Blues Traveler, Juliana Hatfield, Liz Phair, Soul Asylum, Nirvana, Toad the Wet Sprocket, etc...You know the sound...Anyway, I have a certain nostalgic love for all this music...Sort of a musical soundtrack to my mental photo album.
4. Before I ever move away from Los Angeles, I have personally vowed to take the stage and do open mic stand up...I feel wholeheartedly that if I ever moved, having not, I would forever regret it...Not that that's what I aspire to be or anything...But I want to experience that frightful thrill of bombing, or being brilliantly insightful...
5. I have managed to get myself fired from nearly every job I've ever had...If I were to ponder this ridiculous cycle...I see it happens about every three years or so...I guess I just quit caring...I've never really had a job I loved for any reason beyond friends I may have made at the workplace...I don't know, maybe I get bored, but somehow I'll dread the notion of quitting and inadvertently sabatoge myself...I don't know....Some say school isn't for everyone...I don't think workin' for the man is for everyone either...I may have authority issues too...Do I need a shrink?
6. My intials are the same as my pop's...RAM...and when I was a kid, he used to draw these badass ram skulls with steam coming out of the nostrils, and red glowing eyes, with our intials underneath and use them as the logos for his racing team...I come from a long line of stock car ethusiasts...My grandfather, dad, and uncles raced all kinds of dirt track cars...stock car, modifieds, sprints, and go-carts...
7. I went to a christian school for grades 8-11th and won an award for preaching in a regional challenge...The sermon was one that I fully, devised researched, and delivered to a small congregation at the academic tournament and then to my entire baptist church congregation, the Sunday morning after...I am currently agnostic...
8. I've only broken one heart.
9. I love to seek out allegedly haunted grounds...Not really ghost hunting, but just sort of checking out the places and hearing the lore of what went down and when...I've been to the actual Amittyville house...The people that live there now get pissed when people come around...They had no problem with the ghosts, but they didn't count on the curious folk...
10. I once had sex in a movie theater...Matinee, mind you...It wasn't "Harry Potter" on opening night or anything...I still have yet to see "Air America" through it's entirety...
11. I've taken the Landmark Forum.
12. I find that I am a fall person...I certainly enjoy the change of seasons, but I enjoy that crispness in the air...The changing of the leaves' color....Especially in and around the Williamsburg area in Virginia...Winding roads, rivers, orange-brown-yellow-green leaves....For a drive through these parts you might treat yourself to a little Bruce Hornsby...
13. This has taken me 45 mins so far to do this shit...
14. I think Radiohead is the most overated band in the world...And I change the station 100% of the time when I hear a Depeche Mode song...
15. I have no known allergies, and I can't stand the taste of beets...That's why I just don't even eat 'em...
16. One of the best nights I've ever had was going for a little joyride through the Hollywood hills with my good friend Matt, then just taking off to San Francisco to have breakfast on the Golden Gate bridge at 6am...Then while he napped at around 11am, I sat in a bar on Haight and polished off a few pints while the bartender and I took turns playing each other our favorite Tom Waits songs on the jukebox...
17. I would like to one day write a Muppet movie...
18. Sometimes I want to beat the shit out of people that I see do really stupid stuff when they're driving and talking on a cell phone...And if someone injurs another person because of an accident brought on by inattentiveness, there should be severe penalties, up to an including death...And the weird thing is I'm being competely serious on this one...There's just no fuckin' sense in it...None.
19. 19 is how old I was when I moved away from home and began paying my own way in the world.
20. I have fulfilled my obligations of having been "tagged"...
Okay, so there you have it...I feel like there's something I'm missing, I'm sure I'll hear about it soon enough....
Don't step in shit,
