I've been tagged!

So I’ve been tagged by my friend Dennis West. The idea with tagging is that you come up a list of 20 things about yourself to put on your blog. Then, you take the time it took to come up with the list and then tag as many people as minutes it took you. I took about 5 minutes to come up with my list so I’ll be tagging five folks at the end of the post.

20 Things about D Rock
1. Have been happily married to my beautiful wife for 6 years.
2. Have a wonderful 2 year old son who makes me smile every minute I’m with him.
3. I’m a graphic designer by day, and sometimes long into the night.
4. Had to give up my nocturnal activities as a super hero to pursue freelance design work. The pay is much better...
5. Have an unhealthy love for a few TV series including The Shield, 24, Lost, Seinfeld and Family Guy.
6. I was taken by complete sup rise when I saw Fellowship of the Ring since I had never read the books before. Probably the most moving cinematic experience I’ve ever had. Second only to seeing The Empire Strikes Back for the first time when I was 8.
7. I love the original Star Wars Trilogy, though I can only tolerate the prequels. I have given up being bitter about it though, it’s a bit unhealthy and immature. But on a good night I can curse up a blue streak about how bad the new ones are!
8. Have recently started an online T-Shirt design company called dumbgun with my good friend Trevor. (Shameless plug #1)
9. Hershey’s chocolate. Need I say more?
10. Have a dog named Rumble. He’s an Australian Shepherd, easily the coolest dog ever.
11. Favorite movies include the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Star Wars, Fight Club, The Incredibles, American Beauty, Mallrats, The Station Agent, Spiderman 2, X-Men 2, Braveheart, Superman, Toy Story 2, The Iron Giant, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Office Space.
12. Favorite food? Probably pizza.
13. Recently took up biking to work, though haven’t been doing much lately after starting a new job. There’s nowhere for me to get cleaned up like my last job and I tend to get messy when I ride.
14. Can think of nothing better to do for fun than to spend time with my wife and son, no matter what we decide to do together. The idea of having a family board game night sounds like such a good time to me!
15. My favorite part of the day? When I put my son to bed and read him Goodnight Moon. It’s usually just me and him in his room and it’s so quiet and he just smiles at me the whole time.
16. I don’t watch reality shows because I ride the bus to work often and that’s as much reality as I can take. Seriously, any authors or screenwriters out there who are stuck on their current projects need only ride the bus for inspiration. These people are unreal.
17. Favorite band is Pearl Jam.
18. Concerts I’ve been to include Pearl Jam (twice), Radiohead (twice), Joe Satriani (3 times), Tool (twice), Sarah McLachlan (Finally! Excellent show by the way...). Best one has to be Pearl Jam in Vancouver BC, September 2005. Followed closely by Sarah McLachlan...
19. Recently finished a web site for House Of Sound that I’m quite proud of, the artwork at least. (Shameless plug #2)
20. I enjoy having fist fights with full size soup cans. Especially Chicken and Stars. That guy pisses me off.

*Bonus Fact!*
21. Nascar. I don’t get it. I can appreciate the skill needed to do it, I know I couldn’t, but the people who watch it confuse me. Just how exciting can it be to watch 50 cars go around in a big circle 500 times? The only thing good about it are the crashes, except that delays the end of the race, which just can’t come fast enough. Perhaps if the cars went 500 MPH the race would be over quicker. Nah, they’d probably just add more laps. Give me a sweet double play or a game winning home run any day over that nonsense.

Here are the poor souls I’ve tagged:

Creative Blend
Boules de Neige
Ice Cream Monster Toon Cafe
Bad Art I Am Compelled To Share

See, you tag people and you get cursed. No leaves comments any more. Even though I was tagged a few days before you tagged me I will repeat myself. To be a nice guy and because no one I tagged responded to being tagged. Plus I don't believe in curses. Bah! here you go...

1. I barely know how to work the PC I am on.
2. Big dogs make me nervous.
3. I like taunting my enemies. Much to my own detriment.
4. I like taunting my friends more than my enemies.
5. Every other Sunday I play poker (Face to face, not online.) with famous people.
6. My mother is proud of me. I'm not sure why.
7. My father was a quiet man.
8. I am quietly proud.
9. I'm vegan because I like animals.
10. I still believe love will save the planet.
11. Sometimes I pretend to be asleep.
12. Shhhhhh. I'm a sleeping!
13. Cats love me.
14. I smell like tuna often.
15. I'm a neat freak but I love chaos.
16. I think Shemp was the funniest stooge.
17. I am by no means a macho guy but I like John Wayne movies.
18. I can read minds!
19. I knew you where thinking that!
