on the cob

Mine is the number of my favorite Nascar driver, Robby Gordon, driver of the Chevy Monte Carlo Cingular Wireless car.

It used to be the Patriots logo, but now that football season is over, I decided to switch to my current fav sport.  Once baseball season starts I'll probably switch it to the logo of the perpetually cursed BoSox.

It does add a feel of community.

Mikey or Mike is fine, but never Michael.  Only the wife calls me that.

I think a very overlooked collectible line is the Applause figural mugs.  I received one for Xmas one year and then had to have them all.  Unfortunely, mine are all boxed away (as is most of my stuff) but I have big plans for them once I get my own home.  I've been eyeing this wood shoe rack at Target (think cubby style) that would be perfect for displaying these.  I think each mug in its own cubby would look awesome.  Applause only made three for E1 (Jar Jar, Maul and R2) and then went defunct, I believe.  Some other company picked up the mantle for AOTC, but only made Jango and Clonetrooper.  I would love to see these make a return.

I'd be all over a Seinfeld DVD as well as Cheers...my two favorite shows of all time behind the Simpsons :p

Thanks for the Link Mikey, I'll check it out

Ask and you shall receive.  Cheers season 1 is coming in May

Not as much as I should.

High school was no problem.  I played football in the fall and track and field in the winter and spring.  
Even though I hovered around 185 - 190 lbs in HS, I'm 6'-4", so I'm more big boned than round.

College was a complete 180.  Even though I partyed, it  wasn't an issue, but not eating much was.  I actually lost weight.

Now I have the "sit on my ass in front of the computer all day" job and my weight is now up to about 230.  I'm still not round, but I do have a beer gut.

I do play softball during the summer and the occasional volleyball game.  I like to ski, but haven't been in awhile so winters are pretty dead exercise wise, although the occasional game of hockey does take place.  

My wife will most likely start to walk after work and I will probably join her.  It's easy and actually very good for you.   And the weather is starting to turn.  Its almost 70 degrees in Boston today and absolutely gorgeous.

Eating wise, I'm not a huge junk food addict.  My only really bad vices are mint chocalate chip ice cream and chocalate covered pretzels.  Fast food is seldom eaten.  I actually do most of the cooking and try to keep it healthly without sacrificing flavor.  Almost always vegetables are made, I bake my french fries instead of frying and red meat is kept to a minimum (about once a week).  The other times are chicken and pork, which is actually not as bad for you as some people make it out to be.

I love obscure aliens and droids, so my picks reflect that:

After #1, these are in no particular order:

1. Hem Dazon - why the first alien seen in the Cantina hasn't been made yet is beyond me
2. Bom Vimdin
3. Dannik Jerriko
4. Elis Helrot
5. Feltipern Trevagg
6. Tonnika Sisters
7. Myo
8. Wioslea
9. CZ-3
10. R1-G4
