Tagged…You’re It!

When Norman invited me to play, I responded, “I would love to.”  Thank you, Norman.  Please visit Norman Cooper’s wonderful WordPress page at: http://normancooper.wordpress.com/

The rules…

1. Each person tagged must post 11 things about themselves.
2. They must also answer the 11 questions the ‘tagger’ has set for them.
3. They must create 11 more questions to ask bloggers they have decided to tag.
4. They must then choose 11 bloggers with less than 200 followers and tag them in their post.
5. These lucky bloggers must then be told.
6. There are no tag backs.

#4 has been bended a bit, but oh well!  Ha!

The anwers to Norman’s questions are:

1) If you could choose to live anywhere in the world, and work was guaranteed, where would it be?

A)  Anywhere safe and warm where I could sit on a beach and write.

2) What is you fondest childhood memory?

A)  Moving the lawn with a plastic lawnmower beside my father who was actually mowing, going fishing with him, playing cribbage with him, playing Monopoly with my mom and dad, playing with Barbie Dolls with my mother, going shopping with her, going for walks with my grandfather and his dog, piano lessons, cooking with my grandmother, playing with friends…  There are so many.  I can’t pin it down to one… (I can’t pin the bad ones down to one, either…such is life.

3) Does it bother you when people “dog-ear” the corners of their book pages? What about writing and highlighting in a book?

A)  No.  I used to do that myself.  I don’t any longer.  One day I discovered that I had about 10 bookmarks, so I started using them.

4) Kindle/Nook or traditionalist?

A)  Undecided.

5) If national elections had celebrity judges and a telephone hotline, would people be more apt to get involved in government?

I was the Executive Director of a non-profit child care centre situated in a High School.

8) Dude, do you have the answers to yesterday’s Algebra homework?

A)  I’ll give you my answers but I won’t say that they are correct.

9) Glass half-full or half-empty?
