Tagged…AGAIN!

Posted by danleone on June 24th, 2007 filed in blogging, funny

Wow. I am honored that People in the Sun tagged me. This is an easy one though I am not sure that anyone would be interested. I guess the point is to simply list 10 random facts about me. If you care, here they are:

1. I NEVER read fortune cookie fortunes – Part of the whole anti-superstition superstition that I have.

2. I have never had a cigarette (of any variety) in my mouth.

3. I am a closet opera fan.

4. If I had to choose between a “chick flick” or an action movie, I would choose When Harry Met Sally.

5. I am addicted to starting to read books. I have started a billion of them. Finished about 1/10 of that number.

6. I have run 5 marathons and then became fat. I am currently back up to 3-5 miles a few times per week.

7. I only recently received my college degree…at 42!

8. Shhhhh. Don’t tell anyone that I am a balloon-o-phobe. That’s right, I hate balloons and don’t like that I have to blow them up at the kids’ Bday parties. I hate the sound they make, I hate the static electricity, I hate when they pop.

9. I am a member of the Skeptic Society and spend a LOT of time thinking about science, religion, evolution, psychics, superstitions etc.

10. I am addicted to hot food (spice not temperature). I usually have a whole habanero pepper with whatever I am eating for dinner.

One more for good luck:

11. I think smart and funny is FAR sexier than boobs and butts. I think Jeanine Garofalo is hotter than Beyonce! There, I said it!

Ok, so I think I am supposed to tag three others. This is something I have never done before and I admit it a bit awkward. I think I will follow MyBlogLog community 3 levels deep and tag people I don’t even know. How is that for something different?

1. Here in Idaho

2. Shai Coggins

3. Out of Focus

No matter what, I hope you visit these blogs anyway. My limited visits can vouch that they are very well written blogs!

    Hey Dan: Thanks for the shout out. I still don’t get the whole “meme” thing? :( I love #5. You and I have that in common…the only books that I am capable of finishing are colorful one’s made of cardboard…or pop up’s! Thank you again for tagging me!

    Thanks for doing that.

    1. I read them and believe in all of them. I pretend I know they’re silly but I actually think, “Wow, this IS going to be a good year.”

    2. It’s been 6 days since my last cigarette. My whole body is shaking.

    3. I never got that. I thought it was a conspiracy.

    4. “Harry Met Sallyl”? is that a porn?

    5. I read ten books at the same time, which means it takes me years to finish books. But I finish them. I’m afraid of dying before I get to finish the greatest book ever (luckily, I already finished Pale Fire and The Count of Monte Cristo).

    6. One day…

    7. Wow, good for you. I started when I was 26 and finished when I was 31.

    8. Are you sure it’s not a legitimate fear of the clowns that hold the balloons?

    9. That looks like an interesting site.

    10. You’re crazy.

    11. That’s why “The Truth About Cats and Dogs” was so stupid. She’s better looking than Uma Thurman.

    When Harry Met Sally is one of the greatest movies EVER!
