Four questions

Got these from Nan G.

This questionnaire is different from the others because in this instance you get a question and get to give four answers.  When listing please note that the answers are not in any particular order.  The directions to this questionnaire are at the end.

A. Four jobs you have had in your life:

  1. Personal Assistant

  2. Singer/Songwriter (musician)

  3. Computer tutor

  4. Webmistress

I'm self-employed (read: underemployed) but always looking for work! I love what I do... I just hate selling myself. Anyone wanna be my manager for a piece of the action? 

B. Four movies that you have seen over and over:

  1. The Sound of Music

  2. Gone with the Wind

  3. The Wizard of Oz

  4. Pink Floyd: The Wall

C. Four tv shows that I watch:

  1. Gilmore Girls

  2. Smallville

  3. News

  4. Anything on Animal Planet, Discovery or The History Channel

I seldom watch TV nowadays... except for a DVD... so I included my former favorite, the demise of which led to me giving up on watching any of it regularly. RIP Gilmore Girls... 

D. Four places that I have been to:

  1. Atlantic City New Jersey, where I was born and visited again at age 12

  2. Cincinnati Ohio where I lived for most of my life (actually 20 miles north of there in Springdale)

  3. Oxnard California (Long story)

  4. Lima, Peru (even longer story)

If anyone should like for me to further elaborate on these or any other answers, please ask. Perhaps it would be a good topic for an article.

E. Four people who email me regularly:

   1.  My friend Margie, whom I have never met face-to-face

   2.  My neighbor, Barry

   3.  Dean Santoro, who is running for Congress and backs Ron Paul's platform to the letter. In fact, I'll be going out to gather signatures for him soon...

   4.  My sometimes neighbor Debbie, who's a snowbird and spends half the year in Canada 

F. Four of my favorite foods:

   1. Rich, creamy dark Chocolate (Godiva, preferably!!!)

   2. Tender, juicy grilled steak (top cuts - nice and lean!)

   3. Italian food (supposed to avoid this due to duodenal ulcer... but can't always resist... especially lasagna!) 

   4. Cream of Mushroom soup... Campbell's used to have a homestyle version that rocked, and I still prefer theirs to the others... but wish they'd bring back the homestyle variety with the larger mushroom pieces so I don't have to supplement with my own. 

G. Four places that I would rather be right now:

 1. Visiting all of the Hawaiian Islands, including the private one owned by descendents of the Hawaiian Royal Family. I hope that one day they might invite me there to play my music for them!

 2. Israel to visit the Holy Land and let my friend Oded act as tour guide. He has sent me a bazillion photos over the years (I can share them if anyone's interested) and I'd love to see it all up close and personal.

 3.  England to visit my dear friends, not the least of which the two whom I introduced to each other on Yahoo Messenger and who are now happily married! But also my friend Mike da Hat who runs a great showcase there in Peterborough. Check it out

 4. In Montana. I dream of owning this, and running it as a bed-and-breakfast in the summer, as well as building a kickass recording studio and perhaps dance hall in the barn. Not sure about that though cuz I'd like to have at least one Palomino Paso Fino horse, a cow, a goat, some chickens... and a bunch of dogs and cats no doubt. 

H. Four things that I am looking forward to doing within the next 12 months:

  1. Earning a living? Is that too much to ask?

  2. Getting Ron Paul on the ballot as the Republican nominee

  3. Fixing our leaky roof before it gets worse

  4. Getting a bicycle so I will drive less and exercise more 

If you have just read this consider yourself chosen to copy the questions and write your own article based on these questions (with your answers of course).
