My 25 Random Things from Facebook
1) i love french fried onions. i was at sam's sunday morning & it
was everything i could do not to buy multiple "village sized" bags. my
favorite meal with them is pb&j, milk & a side of french fried
onions.
2) if my wife would let me, all of my shirts would be navy blue or
black. in winter it would be sweaters of the same colors. (i'm close
but not quite there.) plain & simple…just add jeans & black
or grey chuck taylor's & I'm good to go.
3) in the past 3 years i have become a fan of open wheel racing…indy
car and formula 1. i still can't watch nascar though…it's like
watching tanks race.
4) if I were not pastoring a church i would maybe run for a political
office or maybe go back to coaching football. i have moments of really
missing coaching. it was fun and one of the most rewarding things i've
ever done.
5) i startle very very easily. don't know why but i do. maybe it's
because I focus on whatever i am doing so hard that i lose what's going
on around me.
6) unlike my good friend mike, i hate the beach. i loathe everything
about it…sand, water, heat. it bores me, but it makes meredith happy,
which makes us all happy. i just take a bunch of books with me when we
head to the beach. on our last trip i think i read like 16 books.
7) i have my funeral planned out on my computer. kinda strange, but i know what i want.
my absolute favorite place in America is Disney World. it is the one
place that i have ever visited where i was able to completely forget
work.
9) i don't sleep a lot. as a rule 1:30-6:30. i do now sleep in on my
day off. my wife has been great on that one! if there were a "replaces
sleep" pill, i would take it.
10) i enjoy playing video games. ncaa football is my favorite. it is the one game i get every year.
11) i would love to spend a summer in italy traveling with my family.
12) i want to teach at a seminary or college one day. i think that will be retirement for me.
13) i would love to spend a couple of years in europe studying. this will be a few (many) years a way.
14) i use "…" a lot.
15) i love traveling. i think I could also do a job where i traveled
several days a week. i love flying & don't mind hotel rooms.
16) i want to write a book but i'm not sure on what. i have several
ideas in my head but have struggled to pin them down. i also battle a
fear of not having anything new to say.
17) i am a closet fan of rap & classical music. my iphone is a very random mix of music.
18) i really like white boards. i have two in my office & i'm thinking of adding a third.
19) i want to go back to israel in the next couple of years. if they will stop shooting over there, i hope to lead a trip.
20) i love taking showers. as a rule, I get two a day (early in the
morning & late @ night). some days I get 3. i literally have
moments when i think about how good it would be to get in a warm shower.
21) when my family is gone for a couple of days…i generally will have
a night where I go get chinese food…come home…turn up moulin rouge
really loud & sing along as loud as i want to.
22) i am on campaigns to bring "snap" back and to end capitalization
23) i have always shaken my leg(s) or tapped when sitting still. i was
really relieved when i read not to long ago that it is a focus
mechanism for those of us who struggle to focus 
24) i don't get tired of foods. i can eat the same things over &
over & over & over & over & over again. this comes in
really handy when you are as picky an eater as i am.
25) i enjoy experimenting with different french toast recipes. my new
favorite is coating the bread in crushed frosted flakes sprinkled with
cinnamon.
