Four Things

I do not often publish social fun things on this site, I am normally too busy ranting about some or other accessibility issue. I do however enjoy digging around other blogs finding out whatever I can about the other bloggers whose sites I frequent. I suppose the old saying ‘what is good for the goose is good for the gander’ is true so I can break my own rules and do something just for the fun of it.

Colleen at Hot Dorkage tagged me with this meme, so here goes, four things in various categories I know about myself:

Four jobs I’ve had

  • Air Traffic Controller
  • Programmer
  • Systems Analyst
  • Lecturer

Four movies I can watch over and over

  • The Matrix (all of them)
  • Ben Hur (now I’ve given my age away)
  • Braveheart
  • My Fair Lady (I just love the old show tunes)

Four places I’ve lived

  • Pretoria (now known as Tshwane) - South Africa
  • Cape Town - South Africa
  • London - UK
  • Istanbul - Turkey

Four TV shows I love

  • Law and Order
  • Monk
  • Friends
  • Everybody Loves Raymond (nobody said the show must still be running)

Four places I’ve vacationed

  • Most places in South Africa
  • Kasane - Botswana
  • Windhoek - Namibia
  • Cairo - Egypt

Four of my favorite dishes

  • Macoroni Cheese
  • Home made pea soup with fresh bread
  • Any Indian dish (the spicier, the better)
  • KFC (I could live off this stuff)

Four sites I visit daily

  • Plurk
  • StumbleUpon
  • Social Median
  • Google Reader

Four places I would rather be right now

  • Wisconsin - USA
  • Charlotte - USA
  • Istanbul - Turkey
  • Sydney - Australia

(I have family and friends scattered all over the world, some that I have not seen for years. This made this one easy for me, these are the places these guys stay)

    You have excellent taste in movies to watch over and over. And I think I could live on KFC also, but I have an idea that doing so might shorten my life span.

    Always interesting to learn things about people. I have just come back off 2 trips to South Africa (my gf is out there) and absolutely love the place.

    How did you find the Air Traffic Controller job, I always imagined it was a lot of stress?

    Well Jim, then you have no excuse, we will love to see you here for World Cup 2010. The ATC job I only did for 3 years, my receding hairline along with the gray hair could most probably be traced back to those days, it was rather stressful but also very rewarding.
