THINGS I LIKE
Ethnic Food: I’ve yet to encounter a culture that didn’t have several dishes I loved.
Dogs: Cats are ok, and before I became allergic to them I had them as companions from time to time, but nothing beats the love and devotion you get from a dog.
Westerns: Even tho I’ve seen most of the old western movies at least 3-4 times, I still love watching them. In fact, I’d put “High Plains Drifter” and “El Dorado” among my Top 25 Favorite movies of all time.
Strong Women: And by that I mean strong willed and independent. I grew up in a family where 90% of the women would have kicked your ass if you had told them they weren’t your equal, so I am ok with women who aren’t wimps.
Garlic: I don’t put it on my breakfast cereal, but damned near everything else I cook gets a good dose of it. And it’s GOOD for you!
Hot Weather: I grew up in the Central Valley of California, where summer temps are usually in the 90’s or 100’s, so I’m well acclimated to running around in the low humidity/high heat we have here in the summer.
The Three Stooges: With Curly or Shemp, if you please, not those later pale imitations of Curly.
Chocolate: Not quite as good as sex, but it can come very close when your jones is working overtime.
Sex: It’s fun, endlessly variable, simple to learn and we are born with all the parts we need to play the game in a solo version.
Reggae Music: I just cannot stay mad or sad if somebody starts playing reggae. It’s dem positive Irie vibrations, mon!
Cooking: Especially for women, who are usually much more appreciative than men when it comes to having somebody cook for them. My wife is a good example, since she says that my cooking is one of the top 3 reasons she married me.
Little Children: Little kids have all the curiosity, honesty, imagination and zest for life that many of us lose ’round about puberty.
Beer: As Tom T. Hall once wrote in a song, “It makes me a jolly good fellow!”
George Carlin: In his old age, he can sometimes get a bit preachy about things, but as he would say “So fuckin’ what!” After all these years he’s STILL funnier that 90% of the comedians out there.
Ice Cream: Darn near any flavor, as long as it doesn’t contain nuts. Godiva dark chocolate truffle is so good, it nearly makes me pop a woody.
