Two, Two, Two posts in one
That great and wonderful blogger Wordnerd challenged her readers to post 6 weird things about themselves. Of course this came with rules, regulations, limits, constraints, chrome bumpers, stopgaps, addendums and a nice hot cup of tea.
Here goes.
The Rules: Each player of this game starts with the “6 weird things about you”. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave a comment that says “you are tagged” in their comments and tell them to read your blog.
- I have never broken a bone.
- I can cross my toes. You read that right, like you cross your fingers, I can cross my toes.
- I am a redhaired, freckled white guy who speaks Spanish. (When I encounter a group of folks speaking Spanish. I keep my mouth shut. (Who would think this fair skinned gringo knows what we’re saying.))
- I only have one kidney.
- I am a Libertarian
- I use Tony Chacheres Creole seasoning in almost everything I cook.
There you have it now if you have not been tagged I DARE YOU to put your six in the comments.
I am going to tag the following;
Part 2
My friend Jefferson Davis wrote a bit of a poem on his blog and challenges us to add a verse to it. Here is what he wrote.
I entrapped a butterfly in a Mason jar,
So I could survey its exquisiteness from afar.
Held it up towards the incandescent light,
Late on a muggy September night.
Mimicking its tapping on the limpid glass,
Of embellished fluttering wings inside,
Draped in valleys of beige ,
With ridges of darkish grey hues,
And speckled with a tinge of blues.
Powerlessly attempting flight,
While trapped inside an invisible gaol.
Hoping that the oxygen doesn’t go stale,
At the mercy of me being polite.
So go HERE and add to the group poem.
Go on, git’.
Wow — I’m totally with you on 1, 2, & 6, and I’m almost #5!!!
By the way, I contributed to the poem!
Hey Brian, thank you for the announcement. I’ll do the, “6 Weird Things About Me”, MeMe ASAP, but first, I must go work for a few hours! Oh, I also get to take a test, when I get home. WooHoo!
No! A chain blog! I’ve been meaning to write six crazy things about me, though, so thanks for the excuse.
Yes a chain blog!!!
Ha! evil laughing ensues……
Most if not all have responded.
Except…except…except….those…from
THE OCCUPIED COUNTIES OF IRELAND!!!!!
26+6=1
Okay Brian – here are my conditions: I never post these in my own blog – Playaz Policy. So you’ll have to accept my response here in your comments section. And may a plague of locusts fall upon you.
Six weird things about me:
1) I was once in a bloody fist-fight with Shirley Hemphill – who I mistook for Nell Carter, who owed me $20 at the time.
2) I can consume an entire wheel of cheese by myself.
3) I once deliberately hid a movie in Blockbuster so another person could not rent it, after she accused me of ‘stealing’ it from the shelf.
4) I am responsible for the rise and fall of the “Cabbage Patch Kid”.
5) I have twin girls – both of whom have different fathers (I suspect).
6) I prefer Mello Yellow over Mountain Dew.
Phil,
You can’t bullshit an old bullshitter!!!
You can’t fool me.
Nobody but nobody prefers Mello Yellow over Mountain Dew!!!!
Dood! I did this like, LAST MONTH!
Here’s the link.

I have to add something though. Er…
6 – I always thought I’d make a very good teacher, because I hate other people’s children and want to see them suffer. I think to be a good teacher in today’s Ireland you have to be a bit of a sadist, you see.
I will always choose a Coca Cola product over a Pepsi product, which is spawned from the devil. (I will admit, though, to drinking the occassional MD when MY is not available)
You are lucky to have no broken bones and I admire your language ability. I live in a tag free zone as I feel my blog is all about me so anther me me would be one me me too many -if you see what I mean.
Michele sent me.
