Muley's List
56Mike's Common Sense
I
have noticed that everyone is writing their list about themselves, so I
thought I would join in. I must warn you that I am a Virgo, and that my
natal chart says that I am too open to others about myself (so expect a
long list). Sigh, oh well here we go.
1) I am the second of three sons all one year apart in age, and I have two twin sisters five years younger than me.
2) I have always been very athletic, and active in sports.
3) My dream job has always been to be a stand-up comedian.
4) I starred in two operettas, and always had a solo song as a member of chorus in elementary school.
5) I still love to sing, and love to go to karaoke.
6) I am a former disc jockey
7) I am a rock-n-roll historian with a huge record collection.
8) I wrestled in high school and college, but never really liked it; I was just good at it.
9) Football was my best, and favorite sport to play. If I had grown to
be as big as my dad, 6' 2" 235lbs, I would have played in the NFL.
10) I am 5' 10" and weigh 215 (oops).
11) I have a B.A. in psychology, with minors in History, and English.
12) I had my first ESP experience at age 10.
13) I am an expert on ESP, parapsychology, the occult, and the arcane.
14) I do N.Y. Times crossword puzzles during lunch at work.
15) I like cold beer, bourbon, and cigars.
16) I coached a woman's football team in college.
17) I have a high I.Q. and don't really fit in with others. I am basically a loner.
18) I have been a recreational runner for almost twenty years and have
run the distance from New York City to Los Angeles a couple of times
over.
19) I have completed five marathons.
20) I have two kids, a boy, and a girl, aged 25, and 23 respectively.
21) I have been in the airline profession since 1976.
22) I am embarrassed to admit that of almost 150 blog posts, the most read is "Big Butts" with thousands of readers world wide.
23) I do like to party and have a good time.
24) I own a pot bellied pig, his name is Wilbur.
25) I have written an e-book "The True Adventures of Wilbur the Pig" which
can be found on my web site mikescommonsense-12@blogspot.com. You will
have to go back in the archive to May to find it. It is true, and it is
funny.
26) I played drums in the University of Miami Band of the Hour.
27) I have been an Oakland/Los Angles/Oakland Raiders fan since 1966.
28) I am a University of Miami football fan.
29) I have had many out of body experiences, and lucid dreams.
30) I know I am soul, and I am not afraid of death.
31) I am a happily married man, and have been married over eight years.
Well there it is. I hope after learning all the inside info on me we can still be friends. Mike

Ive been reading your hubs and never knew you were a Mike! :)
I wonder if I'd be able to rustle up such a long and diverse list!
HI Pete, nice to meet you. Thanks for the kind words. I will swing by and check you out.
Hi Feline! I have been a Mike (actually Michael) all of my life. I got the nickname muley because I have a long German last name, Muehleisen pronounced mule-isen, hence muley.
Nice to meet you--again. You have had an interesting life.
Hi Lady G. so good to hear from you again. It has been a blast being me, I have been blessed.
Dear muley,
Quite an impressive list. I would never have guessed you to be a loner type. You are such a down to earth writer, and I admire that. I share your love of the occult, that you have a pet pig, and that you keep yourself physically and mentally fit. I try with the mental part but fall short on the physical lol.
I often wondered how you came up with your name, now I know :)
How lucky your sisters are to have three older brothers. I have no sisters and one brother, four years older than me. Although it would have been nice, I think, to have had a birth sister, having my brother has been a blessing. I am fortunate to have a life-long friend that I consider a sister, so I do have the best of both.
Now you've inspired me to put out my list. I'll have to give it a lot of thought.
One question for you, why are all the good ones taken? :)
Nice to get more information in the man behind the words. :) My s/o is a Virgo so I know how detailed Virgos can be, and focused when something catches their interest.
Hi Trish, I am basically a loner because I really am not into gossiping, complaining, and other things that the groups at work are into. I am much more comfortable in one on one situations. I started running because I do like to quaff a couple of cold ones every day and do not want to be 300lbs. lol
Hi Nemaste! Well I imagine you have no problem keeping your s/o's focus and attention. Thanks for stopping by.
Following the beat of your own drummer is often the way to go :)
You were big emough, fast enough, coordinated and mean enough! If you had been in a school with a program like Cal-Mum or Canadiagua you might have been dedicated enought to play college ball or more.
Love ya
