Everybody's Doing It

Oh, all right, since I'm too busy trying to get Christmas jumpstarted to blog anything else:

Four jobs you've had in your life: music critic, record store clerk, art gallery director, door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman

Four movies you could [do] watch over and over: The Big Lebowski, Greaser's Palace, Gettysburg, My Dinner with André, The Madness of King George (oops, five)

Four places you've lived: Dallas, Chicago, Lewisburg, PA, Germantown, NY

Four TV shows you love to watch: The Simpsons (only one, sorry)

Four places you've been on vacation: the Hopi reservation, Normandy, Venice, the Adirondacks

Four websites you visit daily: Alex Ross, Jan Herman, Sequenza 21, Salon

Four of your favorite foods: imperial crab, glazed yams, sushi, oatmeal with maple syrup

Four places you'd rather be: Berlin, Santa Fe, San Francisco, Florence
