Playing Favorites

Favorites are funny things.  Some people have a favorite everything, whereas people like me have a hard time nailing down a favorite anything.  I suppose my favorite ice cream flavor is strawberry.  That's about all I've got, though.

Favorite movie?  Maybe "Big Trouble in Little China."  But there are so many other movies that I love, it's hard to pick just one.

Favorite song?  I could say that it's probably something by Elvis, but I don't know for sure.  This category is REALLY hard for me because what I like listening to is based almost solely on what kind of mood I'm in when I'm listening.  Take last night for example.  I did an entire darkwave show, because that's what I was in the mood for.  The next show I do might be all 60's and 70's or it could be prog rock or heavy metal or who knows.

I can say this, though:  I do have favorite sports teams.  Well, I should probably say I have teams that I cheer for.  Being from Ohio originally, I cheer for the Cincinnati Bengals (American football) and the Columbus Blue Jackets (ice hockey).  I don't really follow baseball anymore and I stop caring about basketball back in college.  I still keep tabs on sports, but I don't watch them religiously anymore.  Right now, I'd have to say my favorite sport is ice hockey, because it's more exciting than football.

I might be able to find favorites for a lot of small things, like role-playing characters and the like, but all of the "major" things that people associate with favorites, like songs or movies, I just don't have.  Maybe I'm just funny that way.
