Eight Random Facts
by
Being a relatively new blogger I was unaware of this — but apparently bloggers love to play little games of tag (memes) to help promote other blogs. It seems that Aaron at Prime Advertising & Design recently challenged me to reveal eight random facts about myself and then tag eight other bloggers to respond. Interesting challenge. I’ll try to not make them too dull.
- I’m older than you think. It’s just a baby-face.
- I once had a slight southern drawl. Put me in a room full of Georgians for a week and I guarantee it’ll be back.
- Apparently I’m the only Iowan who feels that the idea of turning perfectly good food into fuel (to burn in our engines) is just a little odd.
- I don’t care what it is, there has to be a way to do it better.
- The best Christmas present I ever got was my daughter (born on Christmas Eve last year).
- My wife is the smartest woman in the world about everything I’m stupid about.
- Do not ever try to feed me coconut or bratwurst.
- I wish I could fly. Maybe some day I’ll take lessons.
Ok. That should cover my meme, Aaron. Now to tag (or is it blag?) eight unsuspecting folks who may choose if they wish to take part in divulging their deepest secrets as I have:
- Adam - Growth Capitalism
- Kate - Kate Klein Design
- Andy - Get A New Browser
- Michael - Insight Advertising
- Becky - Small Biz Survival
- Matt - U.S. Rodeo Supply

And we were getting along so well, and then you have to go and tag me!
But I’m with you on the coconut issue.

Sorry Becky, I know you and the rest of the folks on the list are going to kill me. Hey, Aaron started it… I blame it all on him.

Ahh… Nothing like a game of tag. I’m pretty excited to know what memes are now though… although I don’t know I can pronounce it.
8 Facts Eh??? I’ll post on it…
And thanks for mememeing (sp?) me!

Chris - Thnanks for playing along, hopefully a few readers have found your blog now and taken notice … that’s what it’s all about. Finding great new sources.
Love #5 and #6. I have 2 daughters, 1 and 3, so I know what you mean. As for #6, it had me on the floor, I feel the same way.

Hey Chris!
I have been wondering about the definition of a meme.
Okay…I am working on my eight random (and probably dorky) facts about Kate Klein!

Video? GREAT idea Becky!! Nice job! I wouldn’t have even THOUGHT of doing this with video. Guess I had better go dust off the camera and get shooting some things, huh?

Looks like Kate got around to divulging a few random (not dorky) facts about herself too. Thanks for participating, Kate!

I am totally with you on the turning perfectly good food into fuel…if for no other reason than it is making it darned hard to feed my cattle!
