After both Sarah and Paul tagged me with the latest meme I figured I’d better respond. Here’s how this one goes:
- Players start with 8 random facts about themselves.
- Those who are tagged should post these rules and their 8 random facts.
- Players should tag eight other people and notify them that they have been tagged.
Without further ado, I present to you the stars of the show:
- I own 9 domain names: gogeni.us, hinesburgcenter.org, mastermade.info, mastermade.us, mastermadetech.com, myfla.ws, newlyancient.com, newlyancient.info, and yougot.info. What can I say? I like domains… (and their cheap)
- I do not get any television channels. In fact, I do not know why I even have a television when we could easily just watch movies on the computer. It’s not that I think television as a medium is horrible, it’s just that most of the TV shows out there are total crap. I prefer YouTube for entertainment and Google News for information.
- I listen to a wide variety of music: from heavy metal to classical. Don’t believe me? Just ask last.fm.
- My parents have never been married. Therefore, I suppose you could call me illegitimate. However, I carry my father’s last name and see him regularly. Just don’t burn me at the stake…
- I live in a small, rural town nestled in the foothills of the Green Mountains. My previous school has about 400 students and the one I will be attending has about 1,400 students.
- I am an atheist. My mother is Jewish and my father is Christian, but I find it extremely hard to accept any faith. Nothing is true until proved so. Science rules!
- I am currently running a computer built by me with a 2.2 ghz processor and 4 gb of ram. I dual boot between Ubuntu and XP. However, in the fall, I want to get myself a nice MacBook.
- I have an A+ average in school and hope to never drop below an A. Yes, call me a nerd… it’s true.
Well, now I go on to the difficult business of finding 8 people to tag… here goes:
Fine. NERD! (just kidding)
I kind of quit Last.fm after going back home… can’t listen very well on 90k (the good days). Perhaps I’ll start again when I go to Victoria this summer; I hope steady, fast connections are less of an alien concept in that part of the province.
Oh, and we don’t even own a television set, OR a dvd player. So h’up with YouTube, then.
I would probably go though withdrawal symptoms if I didn’t have a broadband connection…. you should see me when the lines go down… grrr…
Well, you’re quite the…er… anticonsumerist, eh? (So many Canadians around)
Already been tagged, my friend. Thanks for thinking of me though.
Oooops…
Truth be told, I was getting a little desperate thinking of people of people to tag.
You know, I felt bad about not responding earlier to the Tag post (it must have somehow escaped me, and I lack JoshAwesome’s magic RSS that tells him whenever he’s being mentioned somewhere), but after reading that last response I’m not so sure…
Still, expect an h/t sometime in the next few days. Thanks for the tag (I guess…)
Great! Can’t wait to see your response… been trying to keep up with people on the blogesphere. I’ve been especially liking your posts upon business/finance lately. I’d love to see what advice you might have for a (very) young entrepreneur with zero financial knowledge (beyond the use of CD).
