45) I hate sequels.

46) Ethan Hawke annoys me.

47) I find "Family Guy" to be spectacularly unfunny.

48) Except for Stewie. He has his moments.

49) If I had to do karaoke right now, I would do Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run."

50) I REALLY should not ever do karaoke.

51) I hate charging people money to do things for them.

52) I'll never be a gigolo.

53) And I went to business school.

54) I wish that I would have went to journalism school

55) I can be a teensy bit sarcastic. No. It's true!

56) I have never given anyone the gift of a dick in a box.

57) I wonder if people are going to read #56 in the future - without remembering the reference - and think that I am quite odd.

58) I once told a woman that Simon LeBon from Duran Duran was my uncle and that they were singing "Hungry Like DeWolf."

59) I am beyond addicted to "The Wire."

60) I'd still like to know who, exactly, let the dogs out.

61) I wouldn't have voted for Mark McGwire to get into the baseball hall of fame either.

62) I think that Emily Proctor has the best accent ever.

63) But, I still have't heard all Aussie women yet.

64) I enjoy Lisa Loeb's "Stay" WAY too much.

65) The Dixie Chicks' version of "Landslide" also.

66) Even in high school I had sappy music around (mix tapes!), though I claimed it was "for the girls" and "to set the mood." I wonder if my friends bought that.

67) Dreams affect my mood for the next day. If you showed up in my dream and were a jerkass, then I'm not going to like you the next day.

68) Last night I had a dream that I was kissing a woman and she kept accidentally biting my tongue. I don't think that I want to know what that represents.

69) My father had a '69 Mustang (!!!) and sold it (for little or nothing) the year I was born. This may impact what kind of home I eventually put him in.

70) I recently realized that 100 things is a lot of friggin' things.

71) I like gadgets. Too much. (Was looking at this new Blackberry last night...)

72) I was a card-carrying member of the "Guy LaFleur Fanclub" when I was a little Pete. I carried the card and everything.

73) I read a book when I was a kid that taught you how to carve out the middle of a book so that you could use it for a hiding place for your valuables.

74) So, I carved out THAT book.

75) I stored my Guy LaFleur Fanclub card in there when I wasn't carrying it.

76) I check my e-mail obsessively. Even though gmail checks for new mail automatically, I still hit the "Inbox" link to make it check sooner.

77) I can't believe that there are still people who haven't converted to gmail.

78) If Lauren Graham was a cult, I'd join.

79) Unless they made us wear matching tennis shoes.

80) The best pizza I've ever eaten is at King of Donair on Quinpool St. in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

81) By my rough estimates, I spent almost $3600 there during my university career.

82) The drivers all knew me by name, and I always asked about their kids, wives, Star Wars collectibles collections, etc.

83) While in university, I was probably paying for their kids to go to university. Isn't that like paying it forward, or something?

84) I've never seen PAY IT FORWARD.

85) I watch OFFICE SPACE every 3-4 months.

86) I watch SWINGERS once a year.

87) I have a head full of useless knowledge. Seriously. Trivia that nobody should know.

88) I sometimes wonder if Menudo is still going strong.

89) For a frosh week hazing thing, we had to sing NKOTB's "Step By Step" in front of a (now gone) famous bar in Halifax.

90) I was step four.

91) I can totally give you more.

92) I used to wear contact lenses, but then I had cigarette ashes flicked into one of my eyes. It messed up the lens and I had a blood shot eye for months. I never went back to wearing them.

93) I hate shaving.

94) I just checked my gmail account again.

95) I just realized that I really didn't share very much information in this list.

96) I am okay with that.

97) I think that Shakira's hips might actually lie, but I may need to study them more to be certain.

98) Empire State Building Fun Fact #98... It was declared by the American Society of Civil Engineers to be one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World.

99) Red Balloons go by.

100) You didn't think I'd make a list of 100 things and not mention my little ACN, did you?

So, there ya go. 100 things. And you read them all. In some cultures we'd be married now.
