Random Facts Meme

Dan Mayes tagged me with this meme awhile back and it's taken me until now to respond.

Here are the rules:

1) Players start with 8 random facts about themselves

2) Those who are tagged should post these rules and their 8 random facts

3) Players should tag 8 other people and notify them they have been tagged

I'm going to break the rules on the tagging, but here are my eight facts:

1) I love robots, which explains why my desk at home is still flanked by the toy robots I was given as a kid. (Oh, and yes -- the robot pic above is my own creation).

2) I was one of the founders of the first ever outdoor free Shakespeare festival in the state of Missouri.

3) I am a recovering Trekkie.

4) I have a twin brother, and he is one of nine siblings in my family.

5) When I find something I like to eat in a restaurant, I tend to order it (and only it) every time I go there and the restaurants I eat at are almost exclusively ethnic (Indian, Greek, Mexican, Asian).

6) I am the third generation of pastors in my family (and one of my older brothers is also a pastor).

7) I have never had a broken bone (or ever had to stay in the hospital).

8) My current TV show obessions are The Wire, Battlestar Galactica, and Prison Break.
