Bill tagged me with a four things meme, though he already knows most of the answers! But I will play along — now I must try to figure out a way to answer in Odd Ends style (if there is such a thing).

Four jobs I’ve had:

  3. Factory service engineer
  4. Heat treatment process researcher

Four movies I can watch over and over:

  1. The Philadelphia Story
  2. 1776

  1. Cincinnati, Ohio
  2. Altoona, Pennsylvania
