A list

Alright, I've been tagged by rupedog, and so I will do this. But I will not be happy about it. Here it is, a list.

Four Jobs I have had:

1. Secretary at a hebrew school. I still have not figured out how to transfer calls.

2. Phototechnician at my buddy Mikey's dad's store. The best day was when Mikey and I found negatives of amorous fat people in the store basement and secretly developed them.

3. Research assistant for a linguistics professor. This was my short lived (about two weeks) work/study job in college. I was meant to listen to audio tapes and transcribe them. I decided it was stupid and didn't want to do it. I didn't tell the professor, though, and kept all of her research tapes.

4. Research assistant for my father. He was doing a study for his Ph.D. dissertation about end of life decision making. A few times I had to go up to the cancer ward and ask people to turn their attention away from dying towards a survey about dying.


four Movies I could watch over and over:

1. Airplane!
2. Searching for Bobby Fisher
3. Double Indemnity
4. The Godfather

Four Places I've Lived

2. Evanston, IL
3. Cambridge, MA

Four TV shows I love to watch:

1. The Sopranos..pehaps the best tv show ever made
2. The Twilight Zone. A close second.
3. The Daily Show
4. Twin Peaks

Four Places I've Been on Vacation

1. Morocco
2. Israel
3. Hot Springs, AK
4. Sicily

Four of my favorite foods

1. Cannoli. I challenge anyone not to love this delicious dessert.
2. Muffaletta. Sad to say, when Katrina hit, a part of me was most worried about all of my favorite New Orleans Restaurant. I am thankful that Central Grocery, with its delicious sandwich, survived.
3. Chips and Salsa
4. That superb fish that I've gotten from The Elephant Walk twice now. It's called something Malaysian like "Po Bam Pi Bok" or something. Whatever it is, its amazing. You must go eat this piece of fish. Now.

Four Places I'd rather be right now:
1. Cambridge, UK
2. Skiing
3. Southern Italy
4. Some Caribbean island.

Four Sites I visit daily:
1. Cosmic Variance
2. Slate.com
3. The arXiv
4. The New York Times
