I woke up early this am and saw that my new friend, Laurie Manny, the Queen of Long Beach Real Estate, had MeMe'd, me! You see, her "partner in crime," Mary McKnight started the whole Memorial Day 2008 Super MeMe thing. Since I just met these two ladies at the recent Unchained, Social Media event in Phoenix, I think I'll play along. Anyone that blogs, knows that it is probably a good idea to "share the love" with some really great blogger's. So, here's the deal and an explanation of what is going on in-case you are lost..
According to Mary's post.. There are two me-s in meme because it's all about me. Meme's are the perfect way to let other bloggers know about you, let your audience know about you and get to know and relate to other bloggers, expand your network and watch your sphere of influence expand outwards. If you ever posed the question to yourself, "how many degrees are between me and Kevin Bacon?" this is the way to find out.
I am asking 8 questions because when tipped over the number 8 is the infinity symbol and that is totally geeky and 8 is my favorite number and it is 2008. Oh, how the stars have aligned!

1. Who is your favorite musical artist? (post a youtube video) Not exactly my favorite artist but this song let's us know that Light Rail is coming.. π
2. Who is your favorite artist (post a flicker photo) Mark Hobley in Venice CA. Great guy, very talented. Has done some cool stuff for movie studios and many galleries.
3. Who is your favorite blogger? Hard to tell but I think it might be Russ Shaw.. He tells it like it is.
4. If you could meet anyone (alive or dead), who would it be and what is the most interesting thing about them? My grandfather. Actually, both of my grandfather's. They died before I knew them but they each are a big part of my life. One, pretty "old school," the other, very "proper." A great combination. π I miss them..
5. What did you want to be when you grew up? When I was a boy, I wanted to be like my dad.. So far, so good..
6. What is the most interesting piece of trivia you know? Maybe not the most interesting but it has stuck with me for 30+ years.. Pele' the famous soccer player's name was Edson Arantes Do Nascimento – Funny, I am not a huge soccer fan but did play as a boy..
7. If you could live in any point in history what would it be and why? During the Crucifixion.. This is a fascinating time in our history.
8. What is the most interesting job you have ever held? wanna be blogger..
The 8 people I memed
(which means they are required by meme law to answer and ask 8 other people to answer these same questions on their blogs) They probably don't need to call it the Memorial Day meme but, it would be fun for them to chime in..
