Lets play get to know you?

[dstark]

I'm from Western New York State
According to my wife my list of dislikes is much longer than my likes .. has something to do with my age I guess . so here is a sample of
dilikes:
the idiot in the car ahead of me when I am late
finding toilet paper over instead of under .. thats a rule of life
waiting in line . not much in life is worth waiting in line I find
People with more than 10 items in the less than 10 item line
ignorant people
people who think I "play" with trains
other Corvette owners who dont wave back
the person who thought it was neat to have commericals on TV louder than programs
fat people (they should pay a tax for the extra space they take up}
3 seats together on an airplane (cattle car)

likes:
women in general
wind
a warm summer night
Model railroading
my wonderful wife who puts up with me
my dog Oreo who follows me everywhere
retirement (OMG - I wish I could have done it 20 years ago)

I try not to dream too much anymore. God has granted me the time to realize most of them that are realist and those that are unrealist are none of your business

Rock 'n Roll baby .. hmmm perhaps a little country too as I am learning to like it as I grow older. Some of that classical stuff is kinda nice too ...

Dogs definately .. anything .. anything that moves its bowels in the house is not something to have in the house.
