Blog-Tagged: Five Things You Might Not Know About Me

January 3rd, 2007 spryken

Normally I would never perpetuate anything that even resembles a chain letter. I always check Snopes for urban legends before forwarding any email story. But my uncle Rich has tagged me and so I’m it. Since he has helped me get my site going both with advice and primarily encouragement, I will continue the game. The rules are (1) you write about five things that your readers might not know about you and (2) you tag five more bloggers who do the same.

• I definitely did not like backpacking as a Boy Scout. Funny how age changes your perspective.
• I was the first Eagle in my Troop.
• I have a Masters of Divinity but was never ordained or served in a church other than summer positions.
• Many people say I look like Dan Ackrod, especially in Ghost Busters.
• With a BA in Psychology and a M.Div., I make my living from an Associates’ degree in Computer Programming that I got after both of the other degrees, 15 years after my first degree.

Now I get to tag 5 bloggers. I tag Bob - a close friend and former colleague, Ted - a friend and fellow wine enthusiast, Clark Green and Walter Underwood - fellow Scoutmasters and Tom Mangan - a Hiking Blogger.
