My wife sent me a link to this “Which LOST character are you?” quiz, and the $%#@ thing tells me I’m Charlie Pace.
No way! Just because I said I prefer rock music, and because rather than say I’m “squeaky clean” I admitted to having had a couple speeding tickets in my life … they equate me with a drug-addict, rocker-dude? B.S. I like Charlie and all, but I’m not him. No way, no how.
Here’s a list of things I’ve submitted to various social sites in the last day or so:
And that’s all this time around…
… I’m going to spill the beans now, in early February, and tell you what you’re getting from me this year. You’re looking at it. Right there. Yep.
The Kingdom on DVD
I watched it Friday night on DirecTV PPV, and here it is almost 48 hours later and I still can’t stop talking about it. W.O.W. easily one of my favorite movies of all-time. (I’m not enough of a movie geek to have a Top 5 list that I can rattle off, or anything like that. Sorry.) It’s a great story line — fictional, yet clearly based in the reality of what’s going on in the world these days. Great action sequences, but nothing that I found to be too over-the-top. Just a terrific film.
So, if you usually get a Christmas present from me, this is what you can expect. Hope you like it!
I know Chicago is the official “windy city,” but I doubt Chicago has very much on West Richland, Washington. We just finished a string of three days straight with winds ranging from 15-50 mph — just non-stop, no breaks, rocks-in-your-pockets wind.
I hate wind.
Our house is on a corner, and the open side of the house faces west. That, of course, is where the wind usually comes from. So when it’s windy, our house gets pounded. Here are three photos I took in 2006 of the wind damage we suffer whenever West Richland turns into the really windy city:
January 2006
November 2006
December 2006
At the risk of completely jinxing us, I’ll admit this: We haven’t had any fences knocked out so far this winter. But there’s still plenty of time. And plenty of wind, no doubt.

My wife told me about the Sawyer Nickname Generator on ABC.com’s LOST site. This is what Sawyer came up with for me.
Thhhhppfftttt.
