Sad but true: I look much better as a Simpsons character than I do in real life.
Homer Simpson meets Adrian Monk.
I know, that’s a remarkably odd combination, but it’s me in a nutshell. Some days I’m a little more Monkish, some a little more Homeresque—it’s my own inner yin and yang struggling to achieve balance, usually with mixed results.
Besides Monk and The Simpsons, I’m a big fan of many game shows (and have tried and failed to make it on Jeopardy! an embarrassingly high number of times), Lost, M*A*S*H, Jericho (R.I.P.) and a few other shows.
Not that I see many movies now with a little one around, but the all-time favorites list includes the Star Wars saga, the Indiana Jones trilogy (and soon-to-be fourth installment, I’m sure), most Batman movies (except for the unfortunate George Clooney incident), the Spider-Man films, Forrest Gump and most of the Pixar movies.
Musically, I am a proud child of the 80s (see some of my iTunes favorites below). Sad though it may be to think of “my” music as oldies now, I realize a generation has passed since Dire Straits (OK, Sting) sang “I want my MTV,” Journey and Foreigner ruled the charts and music from the Brat Pack films was all over the radio. Thank goodness for iPods, so I can get my fix of the big hair era anytime I want, even as hair is a thing of the past for me.
I'm a gadget head, though my budget limits my ability to buy too many new guy toys. That doesn’t stop me from looking over the weekly Best Buy circulars with the glee I once had for the Kiddie City (bonus points for anyone who remembers that chain of stores) catalogs.
So that's me, a Homer/Monk combo. Hmmm, if Brad and Angelina can be Brangelina, and Ben and Jennifer can be Bennifer, that must mean Homer and Monk together can be pronounced as "Hunk."
