    Way to step up and admit to liking The Gilmore Girls. You're the second male of our age that I have come across in the last few weeks who has admitted to liking the show. Personally I think it has broad appeal across gender and generations.

    As for your coaxing, I have been considering a return to blogging recently, but for now I am enjoying my existence as a serial commenter. Its a thankless job, but I think the two way communication of the blogosphere is one of its best aspects.

    So, sticking with my commenting role, I will answer the tag here:

    Four Jobs:

    1. EraBanner newspaper carrier
    2. Dominion meat department clerk (can still clean up in "know your cuts of meat")
    3. Municipal parks maintenance employee
    4. Queen's University teaching assistant (aka marking grunt).

    Four Movies:

    1. Casablanca
    2. Zoolander
    3. The Big Lebowski
    4. Rushmore

    Foul Places lived:

    All within the Empire of the St. Lawrence:

    1. Sarnia, Ontario (born there)
    2. Newmarket, Ontario (grew up there)
    3. Montreal, Quebec (undergrad)
    4. Kingston, Ontario (M.A and current)

    Four T.V Shows:

    1. The West Wing (seasons 1-3)
    2. This is Wonderland
    3. Corner Gas
    4. Gilmore Girls

    Four places, vacation:

    1. All Canadian provinces except that stupid litte island one
    2. Yukon Territory/Alaska
    3. Ecuador
    4. Chicago (best Great Lake city waterfront)

    Four websites:

    CBC.ca
    thestar.com
    BBC-news
    Bourque.com

    Four foods:

    1. Bacon
    2. Shwartz's smoked meat sandwich
    3. Dad's hamburgers
    4. Andria's butternut squash and leak soup (the token vegie item)


    Four places, rather be:

    1. Schwartz's Deli, Montreal
    2. Anywhere between Ottawa and Windsor with steady employment
    3. My grandparents trailer circa. summer 1990
    4. Montreal, Lower Canada, 25 April 1849, for the royal assent of the Rebellion Losses Bill. (Hey, I'm a history M.A).

    I'm not going to tag anyone, as everyone I know is already tagged, and I'm kinda cheating at this to begin with, since I'm not posting to my own blog

  • I knew that you liked the G Girls, but I had no clue that you liked olives. Friends for 15 years & still don't I know everything.

    Olives are supposed to be fabulous for my metabolic type, and I try hard to like them... I really do! Still, I can't do it, I can't stand the things.
