Bloody Memes…

     I hate memes.  But, hey, what the Hell.  I was tagged by a little brown-eyed cutie, and everyone knows how I like those… 

     Fracas, Jason and Kim:  Tag, you’re it…

A-Attached or Single?
     Single, Single, Single and Single.  Not that I’m opposed to being attached, but I’m apparently not very good at it…

B-Best Friend:
     Swanky, Dave and a bunch of Pirates.

C-Cake or Pie:
     What’s a Cheesecake considered these days?  There was some controversey over that a few years ago… Of course, it was also by people who are upset by the color of shoes one wears after Labor Day… So who cares?

D-Drink of Choice:
     Bombay Sapphire & Tonic with a splash of Lime.  Oh, not that kind?  St. Peter’s Cream Stout.  Oh, not that either?  Fine.  Unsweetened iced tea, then.

E-Essential Item:
     My pocket knife, which a rather large, Chinese-made lock-blade, has been attached my person for about ten years.  It has served as cutting instrument, a punch, a screwdriver, a hammer, a pry-bar, a wire stripper, a rock (figure that out), and on at least one occasion, a defensive weapon.

F-Favorite Color:
     Grey.

G-Gummi Bears or Worms?
     I don’t generally eat sweets.  But, every now and again, I’ll go to Sam’s Club and get a 10-pound bag of Gummi Bears … They’ll be gone inside of a week.  They’re easier to eat than the worms.
     That said, however, I love sour stuff.  The sour worms are pretty incredible…

H-Hometown:
     Knoxvegas, TN, born right there at Ft. Sanders.

I-Indulgence:
     …sex…

J-January or February:
     Knoxville enjoys a couple weeks of 80 degree weather in February… Then it promptly drips back to what can only be described as “colder than Hell” for the next month and a half…

K-Kids:
     Ummm … no thanks.

L-Life is incomplete without:
     …sex…

M-Marriage Date:
     Which one?  No, you cannot have my ATM pin.

N-Number of Siblings:
     One brother, in a family that could care less, really.

O-Oranges or Apples?
     Oranges all the way.  I need citrus!

P-Phobias/Fears:
     I’m not afraid of much of anything… But large crowds full of assholes do scare me.

Q-Favorite Quote:
     “Hockey is a lot like chess on ice. Or it would be, if the excitement of chess was based on when the guy with the white pieces shoves his bishop up the other guy’s ass and breaks his neck with a big wooden stick.”
— Stewart King

R-Reasons to smile:
     Brown-eyed girls … sex …

S-Season:
     In the Fall, all wardrobes are applicable.  I don’t have to pack clothes away… I like that.

T-Tag Three:
     Fracas (http://fracas.wordpress.com/)
     Jason (http://www.collegecritic.net/)
     Kim (http://bluesilverkdg.livejournal.com/)

U-Unknown Fact About Me:
     I was actually a pretty decent artist when I was in High School.  The world kinda beat that outta me… 

W-Worst Habit:
     My filthy f$*&ing mouth…

X-X-rays or Ultrasounds?
     How about neither?  I can pop a bone back myself, and certainly don’t plan on getting pregnant.  ;-)

Y-Your Favorite Foods:
     Hot Indian, Thai or Malay Curries rule all.

Z-Zodiac:
     Taurus … Headstrong and full of bullshit.

    Thanks for playing along, Mark! I loved the answers. And it’s nice to see that you worked “brown eyed girls” and “sex” in as often as possible!

    Btw, thanks for the “brown eyed cutie” comment. ;)

  2. The College Critic » Tagged by Mark at Blogitude Says:

    [...] yeah… the title says it all!  I was tagged by Mark over at Blogitude, and I figured it would be fun to play [...]

  3. Mark Says:

    I have notified Kim that if she doesn’t repost within 24 hours:

    • Someone, somewhere, will not care
    • Approximately 1.6 Billion Asians will eat rice
    • George Bush will STILL be President
    • Someone will complain about getting heartburn from eating at Tomato Head

    Beware the wrath of the broken chain!

  4. Jason Says:

    Did anyone else notice there was no “V”? That’s still bugging me and I filled mine out like 12 hours ago.

  5. Mark Says:

    Maybe their “W-Worst Habit” was missing the V during the sobriety test. ;-)

  6. fracas Says:

    Oy Mark.. you are going to owe me something big for this.

  7. Did you really want to know any of this? « fracas Says:

    [...] 13th, 2007 Because Mark, who was tagged by Tish who was tagged by Mike, who was tagged by Paula who was tagged by Karen [...]

  8. Mark Says:

    I’ll use the same comment as I did on your blog… “I don’t have a pet. Just call me Wilson.” ROFL
