This Is This

Here’s a thing that uncompromising blogger par excellence Sam Burnett did over on A Little Bit Of Wisdom In Every Box. A great name for a blog, though I would have called it Look! Ack! In Bangor.

What you do is stick “(YOUR NAME) likes to…” is the old googleator machine, press the doohickey and first you cut the results and then you want to paste the results.

Simple. Classic. Genius.

What doesn’t help is that I have a famous namesake and there aren’t too many famous Cliffs around, so even before doing this I’m expecting to see “Cliff likes to sing at tennis matches when it’s raining and everyone’s waiting around because they’ve spent hundred of pound on their tickets and plus we’re live on the BBC”, but that’s where the similarity ends, I’m afraid.

But I’m a sucker for a meme, so what can a guy do. I’m ready. Are you? Well all right.

1. Cliff likes to likes to stay slim (he is a mere slip of a thing, albeit a tanned and groomed slip of a thing).

2. Cliff likes to be hands on at his vineyard.

3. Cliff likes to visit the theatre and is an avid follower of Hull RLFC.

4. Cliff likes to cook. Not content with merely cooking, Cliff also likes to discover food’s origins.

5. Cliff likes to pick out questions that may be on the minds of lots of students.

6. Cliff likes to try cases. His readiness to do so is as evident in mediation as it is in the courtroom.

7. Once his tomatoes are in the ground, Cliff likes to mulch them with red plastic, also known as Tomato Booster Mulch.

8. That is exactly where Cliff likes to be — at sea.

9. Cliff likes to spend time sailing and skiing and other things that start with “S”.

10. Also, he’s stolen the curtain that Cliff likes to hang out in front of, and he’s playing the bass without actually holding the bass.

11. Cliff likes to say: Pure. Comedy. Gold.

12. Cliff likes to be more adventureous.

13. Cliff likes to have fun

14. One thing that Cliff likes to emphasize is that our customers need to be comfortable while they are shopping

15. Python, as Cliff likes to refer to it (12-inch bull snake), chases old Cliffy across the road, over the bank and out through the woods.

16. I’ve seen that Cliff likes to eat puppies. Maybe you could work out some sort of deal.

17. Cliff likes to dazzle customers.

18. cliff likes to have good times with good peoples, also known as friends( yeah thats right, im talking about myself in third person, so what) …

19. Cliff likes to hide in closets for years!!! XXX Love You XXX …

20. Apart from the above mentioned styles, Cliff likes to work in what he describes as his own contempory style, where the painting lacks the heavy shadow

I promise I did not see the “Pure. Comedy. Gold.” Before I typed “Simple. Classic. Genius.” It’s just how things worked out.
