I've been tagged
Here are the rules:
1. Once you are tagged, link back to the person who tagged you.
2. Post THE RULES on your blog.
3. Post 7 weird or random facts about yourself on your blog.
4. Tag 7 people and link to them.
5. Comment on their blog to let them know they have been tagged.
Random Facts About Me:
1. I don't know 7 other bloggers!
Oh, wait! That'd be cheating!
1a. I've never been in trouble with the law, but I have had the police called on me. 10 or 11 year old me and some buddies of mine (ok, it was mostly me) were lighting fires in the alleyway behind some neighbors houses. One of the (mean) neighbors had the gall to call the police. I got away from the law, but one of the kids in the neighborhood saw it all go down and told my brother, who in turn told my mom.
It was the only time in my life that I can remember getting a spanking from my dad. PLUS I was grounded to my room for 3 straight days. I could only come out to go to the bathroom.
2. I've only been in one real fight in my entire life. I was in 5th grade and it was with Tommy Harding (I think). We both stunk at fighting so no one would have got hurt, except for Mike Riggits, who kept trying to kick me while we were rolling on the ground, but kept kicking Tommy. The thing about Mike is, he was the boy in school who wore cowboy boots. So he really got Tommy good a couple of times. Tommy and I became friends after that. I still don't like Mike Riggits.
3. I've a penchant for saying (what can be interpreted as) inappropriate things in public settings. Now, mind you, I (almost) never mean to be mean or inapproriate...things just pop into my head as funny, clever or some combination of the two and that little guy in your brain that looks at things that you say before you say them, giggles and says "Um. NO!" is usually on a bathroom break when those things pop into my head.
If you know me, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.
4. Most of the people that I truly admire probably don't have any idea how much I admire them. I'm REALLY bad at the whole emotion thing. Seriously. I'm pretty sure if I started telling them (and you don't know who you are!) I'd start crying and stuff. So, instead, I just end up feeling like an insensitive jerk because I have a hard time with this. This mostly applies to guys more that the gals. Not sure why, but it's pretty much always been the case that I can talk to women about my 'feelings' more than I can guys. So, if you think I'm a jerk, chances are, I really look up to you!
5. My all time favorite song is Turn The Page by Bob Seger. When my twins were wee little babies and my wife had the temerity to leave me alone with them, I would pull out my Live Bullet album and put Turn The Page on Repeat in order to get them to take their naps. Let me tell you, it worked EVERY time.
6. I, like most people who frequent the internets, have a routine when I log in: First to Google for My Bookmarks. Then, right click and open in a New Tab in this order: AskMen.com, ATT-Yahoo (for Comics), Dilbert.com, iWon.com (more comics...are you sensing a trend?), KevinAndKell.com (yet another comic). Next I check my blogs if any are on the RSS: Holland and Eden, io9.com, Whatever, XKCD, lol-cats, Wil Wheaton, Indexed Photobasement Daniel Negreanu Dr. Horrible and every Friday, Freakangels. Then it's time to work!
7. I don't have a tattoo...however, if I did, it would look like this:
1. Once you are tagged, link back to the person who tagged you.
2. Post THE RULES on your blog.
