There is an occasional time when I ponder the most inconsequential and mundane topics.  Since I was told a writer should always write things down when they have the urge to write, I decided to write about quirky things I enjoy, dislike, ponder or like to do. 


So, is it me or does anyone else...

  • like the smell of gasoline
  • like the smell of cardboard
  • collect pine cones as a kid.
  • keep their Christmas tree up so long that they may as well keep it up until next Christmas. (my record is June.)
  • start dancing when a good song comes on no matter where they are when they hear it
  • have the compulsion to say "bread and butter" when you are a walking with someone and the both of you walk on opposite sides of a pole or column (splitting a pole.)
  • like to eat saltine crackers with their ice cream
  • love liver and onions. (it was my favorite meal next to spaghetti)
  • hate tea, iced or hot (this is really odd for a Native Texan)
  • dislike root beer immensely
  • shamefully admit that they thought a cartoon character was "hot". I thought Mr. Clean was sexy. Not this older, pasty version of Mr. Clean they have now, but the earlier swarthy muscular one. (Aaaaah yeah, thats right baby. Swab the deck for me....) Captain Hook was pretty hot too. Maybe I just liked pirates...hmmm...
  • wonder what the heck ACME stood for in the old Roadrunner cartoons
  • think if Wile E. Coyote had enough money to spend on ridiculous ACME products, why didn't he just order a pizza or something.  Did ACME make pizza?  They made everything else.
  • wonder how big Wile E.Coyote's credit limit was. (Ok, I was high when I thought about this one.)
  • suddenly become a clutz when they are around someone they find very attractive or like a lot.
  • think deep sea fish are creepy *shudder* this picture creeped me out the least. All of the other ones I couldn't bear to look at.
  • think Tupac Shakur resembles Gonzo from the Muppets' pet chicken Camilla?
  • like the Stones better than the Beatles.
  • think Lt. Worf from Star Trek TNG and DS-9 was sexy

Let me know if I'm not alone on some of these.

You're wonderful.

Yes. To pretty much all of the above. (Not Mr. Clean, but I did have a thing for a cartoon character. Or two. lol) 

Gasoline smells great.  And all that stuff. 

<applause>

What you aren't going to share your cartoon crush with me? Was it that guy with the white hair from Johnny Quest? LOL!

Good. That makes me feel better. I was beginning to think it was a new addition to my OCD.

LOL

<<looks furtively around>>

Nope. It was Legolas from the cartoon version of The Lord of the Rings. Remember that one?  I thought he was wonderful. Don't know why, now. lol

Shhhh...it's a secret.
