OK, everyone does this but here are 25 things about me.
1. When I'm alone, I talk and sing to myself. If I recorded it, you'd probably be pretty entertained.
2. I have ADHD.
3. I love taking baths. As long as I have a few beers to drink and something to read in there. As a matter of fact, I had one tonight then went to a neighbor's house with my wife to watch Slumdog Millionaire.
4. I've plucked a chicken.
5. One time two older kids tied me to a tree using just my legs.
6. I have two kids. A boy -15 and a girl - 12.
7. Despite what you read on my blog, if you met me in real life you'd be surprised that I'm pretty normal.
8. I collect Zippo lighters. And I used to collect Homies, Simpson stuff, old advertising stuff, ashtrays, pez and belt buckles. Except for the Zippos - all of the other stuff is in my attic.
9. I can ride a unicycle.
10. I'm terrible at math. Sometimes I use my fingers to add.
11. I've been to China. Deep, deep into China where white people have never been. (I'll write a post about this soon).
12. I have a birthmark on my knee that looks like the Caspian Sea.
13. I did a duathalon a few years ago. 5k run - 10 mile bike - 5k run.
14. I used to do stand up comedy.
15. I've developed over 3000 products including Jack Daniels, Disney and Warner Brothers products.
16. I rarely lie.
17. Some of my favorite foods are crawfish, ribeye steaks and pistachios.
18. I have pictures of myself with many celebs including Sally Jessie Raphael.
19. I just remembered the other week that I have a list of every woman that I've ever been with - with details. I hid the list somewhere years ago so I'd have it when I'm old and I'm now trying to remember where it is.
20. When traveling, one of my favorite things is going to bars and meeting strangers. No, not just women. Just interesting people. I wish had started a travel journal years ago.
21. I have a phobia of retarded people. Especially when they see me and approach me.
22. I had a dream I was eating a giant marshmallow and when I woke up my pillow was gone. Naaaaaaaa. Naaaaaaa. Naaaaaaa.
23. I used to go to England all the time for work and sadly, every picture I took was lost. Stupid computers.
24. I hate rap but I can make up freestyle rhymes/rap in a flash.
25. If I could do anything for a job I would write for a sketch comedy show.

I was just singing to myself and when I read your #1 item I got embarrassed and stopped.
ReplyDeleteI love pistachios.
ReplyDeleteSally Jessie Raphael! You have LIVED! :)
ReplyDeleteHow come we never see these so called pictures of yourself?
ReplyDeleteYeah. That's right. I think you're a liar Zibbs. I said it.
And number 20 is awesome. We have this in common.
ReplyDeleteI will never be able to take a bath and not think of this. But I'm still super glad you shared!
ReplyDeleteLove it.....I rarely lie. Or, you can re-phrase that to say, "For the most part, I tell the truth."
ReplyDeleteEither way. :)
next time you talk and sing to yourself, record it on your snapvine..
ReplyDeleteI'm going to take a picture of my birthmark and see if we have twin birthmarks on our knees.
ReplyDeleteWere you a very tall child? Still puzzling out the "tied to a tree with your legs" item. Pretty impressive,actually!
ReplyDeleteI want to hear about China. And we have the exact same dream job.
ReplyDeleteUhmmmm!
ReplyDeleteYou tool! I didn't think, you of all people would fall to this silly 25 questions thing. I'm disappointed Dr.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd like to see some more of the sketch scripts here on the pages of "That Blue Yak."
ReplyDeleteThanks for the look behind the curtain.
That's a pretty interesting look inside the blogger's studio!
ReplyDeleteThe old Indian "tie you to the tree with your own legs" trick? I remember that one!
ReplyDeleteI think I heart you more now.
ReplyDeleteI have this weird ability to make up freestyle rhymes at the drop of a hat, as well.
And I love number 20. It's what makes life so interesting.
Great list, Zibbsy.
Great list, Zibbs! I'm with you on #20 too.
ReplyDeleteyour blog is great. lots if interesting topic. you can also visit my site at
ReplyDeletehttp://you-met.blogspot.com
thanks
congratulations, your list of 25 is the only one i've read 100% through and not simply marked as read.
ReplyDeleteyou win.
also, i have a massive collections of homies, i'm actually thinking about somehow doing a post about them, yo.
You know, none of that really surprises me. I don't know, I'm going down the list saying "yep," "mm-hmm," "I can so see that," and "well of course." Pat me on the back, Zibbs, I've been picturing you quite accurately. Unless you're lying here. (wink) I would love it if you would do posts about the WB and Disney products you developed and the stand up career. C'mon! Pretty please! You're one interesting fella. :-)
ReplyDeleteBTW, my wv: unded. Ooh. Now I feel so alive!
Nice list.
ReplyDeleteNumber three reminds me of an episode of Scrubs where one guy ends up in a bath so long it becomes a legitimate questions as to how much of it is bath water and how much is urine....
Whoa - look at all of these comments already. And www, I'll be writing about China soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat's a homie? I always thought it was someone sympathetic from your home town. Do you have a bunch of homies in your attic?
ReplyDeleteI have a birthmark on my back that looks like North Dakota. Weird...
ReplyDeleteI have to ask......did you try on Sally's big red glasses?
ReplyDeleteAnother thing.....a collection of homies? You cannot imagine what I am thinking.
But seriously, what are they? Them?
peace
#2
19 is funny. How old are you?
ReplyDeleteSista # 2 - I didn't get to try on her glasses but I did stare at them.
ReplyDeleteJill - I'm older than the sea and younger than a baby.
I thought you were a DeeJay? I used to collect Pez dispensers. I eventually got rid all of them but one. Betcha can't guess which one. Wonder Woman! I'm glad I can view you now...getting my fix. BTW I blame you for any spelling errors on your post. The way your comment window pops up, there are no toolbars/menus (my google spell checker). Don't even try to tell me to write it in a word doc then copy and paste. I'd rather have spelling errors...
ReplyDeleteso tak thet yuo bule yek!
Will you save some bath water for me? Just a little bit in a vial?
ReplyDeleteYou can give it to me, or I sneak into your house and get it myself.
Did you say Sarah Jessica Parker? Oh, wait. You said Sally Jessie Raphael.
My wife would love to hear about your China stories. She's fluent in Mandarin, but has never been there. Yet.
ReplyDelete4. I've plucked a chicken.
ReplyDeleteI've milked a cow. Together we could basically run a farm! That's all there is to it, I bet.
Personally I find that math is highly overrated.
ReplyDeletebut did you make Sally Jesse Raphael a steak with pistachios and serve her some Jack Daniels?
ReplyDeleteLiLu - it's settled. Lets start a farm together.
ReplyDeleteD Cap - Yes.
#26 You collect kitchen sinks.
ReplyDelete#27 Wish you could drink as much milk as the King of the Farmer's Market and his son.
Thanks for commenting on my blog! I get overly excited when I get a new follower hahaha
ReplyDeleteNice post. I have a couple things in common with you hahaha I sing and talk to myself when no one is around...I'm like a Dr.Phil.
I need to get started on my 25 things...
Be one with the Fro - thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDelete7. Despite what you read on my blog, if you met me in real life you'd be surprised that I'm pretty normal
ReplyDeleteSay it ain't so Dr. Zibbs!
Hey - the Spawn and I volunteered for the Special Olympics, wanna come? 'AY!!! YEW WA-A CUMB HAP WIFF THE PEE-POLE?
ReplyDeleteWhat no president of the Corky fan club on your list?
ReplyDeleteYou NEVER fail to fascinate me. You always leave me wanting to find out more about you.
ReplyDeleteFancy - I love how you're 5 years behind on my blog.
ReplyDeleteAt least you're reading it though.
Let's discuss Number 21. Phobia of "retarded" people.
ReplyDeletePlease just watch How's Your News? MTV one time. Just ONE TIME!

I made my husband watch it last night - he was so uncomfortable. He told me the creators are Matt Stone and Trey Parker (ring a bell, South Park....)
I laughed a lot when I watched it. This would make a great post actually.
I'm intrigued by your birthmark. I saved your post until I made time to photograph my birth mark.

Ok. I'm weird.
