Pete passed along another meme. I'm several days late, but I suppose it's better late than never. In the spirit of the activity, here are four lists of four things about me.
Four jobs I've had in my life:
- I've done plenty of yard work in my day -- good money for a young kid.
- Mervyn's -- my first 'company' job between high school and college stocking clothes on the floor of the kid's department at this West Coast regional department store.
- Campaign Manager -- I was the campaign manager for a city council candidate in Fresno right after I graduated undergrad. That was when I liked politics, these days it's the opposite.
- Ethnographer & Design Researcher -- I used to travel all over the country studying people in their homes and places of work to help companies develop better products and brand strategies. Ask me sometime about my most interesting moment...
Four TV shows I DVR:- Good Eats -- Alton Brown rocks, I've even built his design for a ceramic smoker made from a flower pot.
- Mythbusters -- The explosive Good Eats, I suppose.
- Entourage
- Flight Of The Conchords
Four places I've been:- Alaska (2001) -- Dotcom bust decompression time
- Brazil (2006) -- 12 day getaway with Kerry
- Finland (2008) -- Analyst briefing at Nokia
- Hawaii (2005) -- Birthday gift to mom
Music artists I'm listening to right now:
- Tool -- 10,000 Days is the latest and greatest in their collection
- Ken Andrews -- Frontman of Failure, On, and various other projects, I think he's definitely underrated.
- Electric Six -- The lead singer is a friend of mine.
- Placebo -- Just great music and a great sound.
