Don’t forget 1-25 and 26-50.

  1. Funny movies I like: Raising Arizona, The Big Lebowski, Best in Show, Men in Black.
  2. Funny shows I like: The Office, The IT Crowd, Family Guy.
  3. My middle name is Patrick.
  4. I’ve broken fingers, toes, my nose, and my left arm.
  5. I’ve sprained both ankles many times, separated my shoulder, dislocated a clavicle, and many other things.
  6. I’ve suffered from numerous physical ailments including osteitis pubis, tendonitis, hammer toe, and metatarsalgia.
  7. One of my favorite people in the world is my nephew. He calls me Ike. He calls Dorrie Dodo.
  8. My favorite pizza toppings are pepperoni, sausage and red onions.
  9. I love Indian, Thai, Chinese food.
  10. I just recently started eating sushi, and I can’t get enough of it.
  11. The physicists that worked on the atomic bomb in the first half of the 1900’s fascinate me. Especially Richard Feynman. If you haven’t read about him, you should.
  12. The only comic I care to read is Get Fuzzy. I like my Dilbert calendar, too, though. Oh, and if www.xkcd.com is a comic, then that, as well.
  13. My favorite season is winter, my least favorite is summer. I like them all and look forward to when they change.
  14. I’ve been in a couple television commercials, a television documentary and a few print advertisements. I have the VHS tapes prove it, but you probably won’t ever see them.
  15. I’m not a Democrat, but I can’t imagine ever voting Republican.
  16. My preference is to use a Macintosh whenever possible and avoid Microsoft altogether, but I see the pros and cons of every platform and operating system and won’t bash any. Well, OK… sometimes I bash Microsoft.
  17. I would really like to learn shorthand, but lack the drive to actually spend the time necessary to do it.
  18. My mother is a genius when it comes to anything related to grammar, writing and shorthand.
  19. My dad is my go-to guy when it comes to anything related to photography, but I think I’m becoming his go-to guy since photography has become digital.
  20. The only houseplants that I am able to keep are the ones that thrive on neglect.
  21. I am punctual and expect others to try to be.
  22. I love chess, but don’t really play right now.
  23. One of the hardest things I’ve been through was when the house I was trying to sell just after I moved in with Dorrie fell apart and cost us $13,000 to repair.
  24. There have been other trying times, too.
  25. It’s taken me two weeks to come up with the first 75 items of this list.
