Life Got in the Way

Every Saturday WTIT: The Blog brings you a meme called Saturday 9. It’s not to say that this is a bright idea, but it is what we do. A woman named Crazy Sam started this meme because a prior popular Saturday meme specialist Lola had retired. So, Sam contacted all Lola’s participants and invited us to participate in her meme. We are not sure why she included us, but she did. And we are glad she did. All of Sam’s questions and writing are in bold.

Saturday 9: My Favorite Things

1. What is your favorite thing to do alone? I am working on a movie script, so much of my time is tied up with it. It’s called “George W’s Success Stories”. After much work we realized that we should perhaps film it as a “short subject” category. OK, we concede, so that might be a stretch as well.

2. What is your favorite thing to do with your best friend? Bar hopping. I don’t do it much anymore, but doing it with Harvey Wallbanger is always a fucking riot because he is a master of dealing with women. There he is in his element.

3. What is your favorite band? All time: Beatles Last 10 years: Counting Crows Newer: Fall Out Boy

4. What is your favorite song? Sam, are you shitting me? A random song that is sticking in my head recently is by Sister Hazel called, “Life Got in the Way”

5. What is you favorite part of your job? Getting paid. Anyone who says anything else is better is totally full of shit. I love all of my job, so don’t get me wrong. But getting paid is the part of our arrangement.

6. What is your favorite TV show, on now? The set is off now. You see I am at the

keyboard of my Sony Vaio, truth be told. I like the new reality show Hopkins about real people working as doctors and other medical professionals at John Hopkins.

7. Favorite TV show all time? Tough call. I’d say M*A*S*H. Best comedy writing ever. Socially relevent.

8. Who is your favorite actor? Morgan Freeman. I started following him from day one. He’s been huge a LONG time now, but I became his first or second fan.

9. What is your favorite film? Casablanca. This could be the start of a beautiful friendship.

We hope that when we return

that you will join us. Although,

we will totally understand

if that’s not happening .

Tomorrow, we do Stealing.

We will rip off some

wonderful person’s meme…

because we can.

Coming Monday here on WTIT:

We will tell the tale of

of my family’s Stadium Farewell.

with the story of Yankee Stadium and our salute on the

WTIT: The Blog.

Same time. Same Blog. Goodnight, Sam.

I just realized I read all your Sat 9 answers and no music was playing–what’s up with that?

Great answers–I also admire Morgan Freeman and placed MASH as a favorite.

Til next week…

My dad and I used to watch MASH reruns every night when I was in high school. Loved that show too!

Kwiz-
Yes I have to add the playlist back!

Trish-
MASH was the best, have a good week!

MASH is a good choice!

My friend Amina was one of the editors for Hopkins, so I watched the first episode because of that. It’s a great summer series! I hope they do another one, it’s really different from the usual medical documentaries where they focus exclusively on the patients and their conditions.
