Just Got Tagged
I really wasn’t aware of this going on until Andy Carvin tagged me last night at 6:27. It seems that folks are blogging five things that their readers don’t know about them, and then tagging other people to fess up. How can I top getting shot at by Turkish military police, or knowing Taekwondo, or being a concertmaster in an all-state high school orchestra?
Well here goes, and this is probably going to be corny! OK, I changed a couple of them, feeling that I got a bit to personal. So one and 3 are different!
- On of my ancestors, on my mother’s side was a lady in waiting for Queen Elizabeth I. She is buried in Westminster Abby. My Aunt Janet has seen her tomb.
-
The Guy with the Test Tube When I was young, I wanted to be Johnny Quest’s father when I grew up. If you never saw Johnny Quest you won’t understand. (check JQ on YouTube)
- The first professional development that I ever performed was a lesson on how to roll up an extension cord for a 16 mm projector.
- I was once in a community play. I played the ghost of Jacob Marley in Scrooge. It was great fun. I also ran the lights in Godspell.
- When I was in high school, I made date money playing in various rock and beach music bands. I also played guitar in coffee houses when I was in college, but I didn’t make much money. I don’t sing very well. That’s true!
OK! tag goes out to ………………
David Jakes, Terry Freedman, Vicki Davis, Jennifer Wagner, Joyce Valenza, and Chris Lehmann

Thanks for sharing yours and being so personal! I am curious to see who your Vicki replacement will be!
Yours,
Chris Craft
Reply to Chris Craft…. And I have already tagged Terry!
But shhhhh…. don’t think he has noticed yet! Perhaps he will be flattered?
My husband was similarly born with 6 fingers and attributes his interest in finger-flinging close-up magic to this fluke of nature.
Thanks for sharing, Dave! Isn’t this fun?
Cheers,

Just got the full first season of Jonny Quest (no H in his first name!) for my husband for Christmas. Now I will not be able to watch Dr. Benton Quest without comparing you to him! Guess it gives me a good reason to watch the episodes, eh?

Thanks for the tag –
as in real life, I ended up being tagged twice —
But it was fun to share 5 more things and much nicer to be mentioned on your blog.
Happy New Year,
See you at NECC.

Reply to Vicki DavisAh… that\\\’s a shame. They were the most interesting ones. If we don\\\’t share our weaknesses we are not being true to ourselves… :-)
Reply to Doug BelshawHappy New Year, David and thanks for the tag. I’ll post tomorrow, promise! I feel serious pressure to be unboring and right now my brain is still a little party-fuzzy.
Reply to Joyce ValenzaWhen I was in the High School I used to learn various rock and beach music bands. Thanks
