I have been stirred out of my winter blog hibernation to heed Anil's call to answer about Four Things. Far from me to refuse an internet rock star like Anil anything, so I present:

Four Things

Four jobs I've had:

Four places I would rather be right now:

And now that I have discharged my duty, I hereby tap the following four people to post their lists:

Update: Once I posted the list and looked at it, I realized that it should have been four items not ten for the movies... C'est la Vie.
