A couple of weeks ago, my friend Dawn had a post giving eveyone a letter, and then you have to write 10 things you like about that letter. So she gave me the letter "D" so here goes my 10.
D
1. Dawn -- Might as well start off by thanking her for this great idea and allowing me to participate. Its funny, you meet someone by clicking, then clicking, then clicking, and somewhere thru all the clicking, you end of on their website. Its been fun getting to know her, and see all the fun and interesting things she likes/dislikes and her photography is awesome! I am so jealous! So here's to you Dawn! :)
2. DVD -- Ever since I got my first DVD player, I think I have watched one or two movies in the primative viewing format (VHS)...I love my DVDs...and love having my DVD burners on my computers
3. Delivery -- Yeah, love my China Wok delivery - they are so cheap. They even give lunch specials during dinner time!
4. DOT -- Most of you are probably saying "What is DOT?" Its actually Dee-Oh-Tee, or Department of Transportation, which is the governing body of everything I do with my job. There is a huge misconception with DOT, and a stigma that they dont keep the motoring public safe. On the contrary. More than 75% of truck accidents are caused by the actions of 4-wheelers (regular cars/trucks) so remember this: everything you touch, everything you purchase, it got there by a truck driver, and they are goverened by DOT (click here for data source). This from a former truck driver, who is responsible for dispatching 171 of his own drivers.
5. DJ -- As a DJ, I have been able to build quite a library of music (all legally THANK YOU!) LOL And the people's lives I have been able to be apart of has been awesome!
6. De Pere -- The actual suburb I live in. Its a great little community. Very quiet, very quaint, and I like it here.
7. D'Onofrio -- Vincent D'Onofrio is a great actor! One of his most memorable films was also one of his first, as Pvt. Pyle in Full Metal Jacket which I FINALLY got to see for the first time on New Years Day...classic!
8. Digital Camera - I like my digital camera, but hopefully I will be able to get a nicer one this year. This year I want to upgrade to the Canon XTi Digital Camera, this way I can use the same telephoto lenses between my Canon Ti 35MM film camera. I am really getting back into photography, and alot more since I got my Canon A540. Like the camera, but wanta a nicer one.
9. Dream Theater - For those of you who like to expand your musical horizons, check out Dream Theater. They have been (for the most part) off the radar, but a phenomial band none-the-less. They have a cult-like following, from those who discover them, and look forward to every one of their albums. You will not be disappointed. Here is (what I feel) is one of their best songs, of many. This is Pull Me Under from Dream Theater off their album Images and Words. Enjoy!
10. I save the best for last. -- DADDY! I love being a father to my children. I love being involved in my kid's lives. I know my family is upset with me because I dont send out pictures every week, but I am doing the best I can. I will do better in 2009 getting pictures out there for everyone to see.
OK There is my 10! Enjoy!
Take Care
