Blog Tag – 5 Things You Didn’t Know About Me

Alright, I’ll play, why not? Today I got “blog tagged” by Shmuly. The idea is that you tag 5 of your blogger buddies and pass the torch, also that you (the tag-ee) must write 5 things about yourself that many people don’t know. So here goes my list, with my 5 tags below.

1. I read magazines from back to front. Not books or newspapers, just magazines. I’m not sure why.

2. I am not OCD, but I must have the last numeric digit on a gas pump fillup be 6, no matter what.

3. I’ve been blogging since August 2001, a month before 9/11. Archives here.

4. My nickname growing up from my two older brothers was “Shag” because of my haircut in the late 70′s. Which, is ironic today as that hairstyle is back and popular with teenagers today.

5. I built my first webpage in Pagemaker in I think 96? Took a job as a web designer 2 months later and was handed a “Learn HTML” book on my first day. This was before tables existed.

So I tag, hmmm, I tag the following. Sam Harrelson, Wayne Porter, Matthew Ingram, Eric Olsen, Anita Campbell.
