So, if I do a smaller, condensed version, would it be a "mini-meme?"

Good one Rich! Check your email. You're about to be mini-memed!

Hey, you memed 4.

Aren't you supposed to tell us 5 things about you to get the ball rolling?

Actually Mo, I memed 6 (just to get things rolling.)

And I'll tell my five things as soon as someone memes me! 

5 things... (more details on my blog)

1.  Classically trained pianist and vocalist.

2.  Was the only (at the time) woman sales rep for Husqvarna (yes, i sold chainsaws!)

3.  Certified OSHA logging safety instructor.

4.  Paid for college by bartending.

5.  Certified USSSA umpire.

I hit up Linda Davis, Bob Pavey, Jim Lee!

Are we supposed to post the 5 in a comment after your post or in our own blogs?

Thanks Leigh! You don't look like a chainsaw salesperson (not that I really know what a chainsaw salesperson should look like. But I'm picturing a big guy in a flannel shirt...)

You should make an MP3 file of you playing/singing and share it with us! I'd love to hear you! 

I am doing it in my own blog with a comment link  here.

Oh, yeah, Jay, you were just tagged. 

Along with Justin from CREN

and Carole Cohen. 

Sam - I was thinking here, but I like Mo's idea.... on your "other blog" is fine, or as a separate AR blog, but please come back and put a link here so we can all see it!

I had a feeling Mo would tag me...

1. I've jumped out of a perfectly good airplane 12 times. (I *highly* recommend it!)
   
   
2. I taught my son to play Chess when he was three. By the time he was five, I couldn't beat him. I have two chess trophies. My son has over 100, including state and national level championships.
   
   
3. My 13 year old daughter plays piano, clarinet and flute. She doesn't know it, but she's getting a saxophone for Christmas. I can't even play a kazoo.
   
   
4. I had a 4.0 GPA in college.
   
   
5. My Point 2 Agent web site is ranked #1 in the world out of 103,000+ Point 2 sites (at least for the moment)

I sincerely hope your 13 year old does not read AR.  Somehow I am sure she doesn't, though when I was that age I would have done anything to figure out what I was getting for xmas.

Your p2a ranking is impressive.  What is it based on?

My memette, Carole, is out showing and will be reporting in later this evening.   I have some more people I would love to tag.  Too bad I could only do 3.

Ok...mine are here.  There will be NO chuckling. Don't click until you promise.

I have named memers George Souto, Brett Ellis and Angus Woodbury.

I have named Anne McDonald, Kristin Gunn & Janet Patrick...

Blogging is time consuming enough by itself.

MAUREEN WROTE: I have some more people I would love to tag.  Too bad I could only do 3.

Heck, I've never been a big fan of rules, tag as many as you want! That goes for anyone!

My daughter is too busy yapping on the phone and sending text messages to read anything I write. Though both her an my son did "hack" my other blog once. I think the fear of friends finding out she read Dads blog is enough to keep her away. How uncool would that be?

The P2A Performance Indicator is based on "on line effectiveness", whatever that means. No one knows for sure as they keep the calculations secret -- sorta like Google's SERP algorithms. They don't want people manipulating them. It appears to be based on listings "richness" (read text and photos), extent of customization, traffic, prospect generation... stuff like that. Doesn't really mean a whole lot, but I do use it in some marketing. Sellers like to hear "We are the #1 Point 2 site in the world". And, it sounds cool. Ratings are constantly changing, so that honor could disappear any minute.

Someone needs to tag Colleen Kulikowski and David Spencer....

I am naming: 

Kristal Kraft, Ann Cummings & Elaine Reese

1. I got my first real job at the age of 11 delivering Chinese food for a Rush street restaurant by bicycle (including in the snow) I always had a job after that.

2. While I was an only child for most of my life, I did get to spend a short period of time in a well to do family when my Mother married my best friends father (whose family owned a chain of hotels).... Unfortunately, shortly after that he was no longer my best friend... I moved out of the house 1 month after my 17th birthday. It's a good thing I was still working.

3. I have a fear of speaking in groups and frequently can get tongue tied... this would not normally be too bad but I will occasionally sit on panels or make presentations to large groups... it's gone from a major near-heart attack kind of overwhelming fear to a simple heart racing dumbstruck kind of fear. Some of you have been able to witness this... usually I muddle through.

4. I love to read. I'll read the self help books and how to's... but I really love to read novels... lot's of them, 1-2 per week... usually intrigue, mystery, action, political/legal/financial thrillers... in my younger, less busy days... I would read a book every 1-2 days.

5. At the age of 9, Bobby Schuller broke off pieces of chalk in the locker doors (where you could put a lock, if we were allowed) in the Hall at my elementary school... then told my fourth grade teacher (Mrs Falbo) that I did it. I had just (finally) earned the right to be a "door guard" and she took it away from me. I haven't trusted authority since. (not that I hold a grudge or anything)

Moo

I blogged on my blog.... but no fair... I just tagged Elaine too...  I think Elaine needs to pass one of her two on because I am supposed to out to dinner shortly and I have to dress... or is that not fair?  Jay make an executive decision...

Ok, I am going to add my 'stuff right to this blog post. Here goes:

1. When I was 11 I was the Secretary of the Vic Davalillo Fan Club. #25, centerfield, Cleveland Indians lol. I still remember his birthdate (July 31st). I was in charge that year of baking the cake; which I had never done; and I folded in the first third of the flour and forgot the last 2/3.  Luckily my mother made one quickly lolol.

2. I played the violin. I had perfect pitch so I hated how I sounded : -)  It's not like riding a bike, so I finally donated my violin to a music school a few years ago.

3. Took my first trip to England after High School; we did a summer program at Durham University. It was like dying and going to heaven. I won a debate (the total subject escapes me it was uh, a few years ago), but it was something about Parliamentary Government versus our own Three Branches. I lucked out and was chosen to represent the Brit side; my prize was a glass bottomed pewter mug and a bottle of Newcastle Brown Ale.

4. I attended the first Farm Aid Concert in 1984 in Springfield Illinois. A friend had back stage passes which I 'borrowed ' for a few hours until they caught me. I was up on stage when Bob Dylan and Kris Kristofferson sat in front of me talking to each other like old friends. Now, these are two of my favorites, and I couldn't even get up the nerve to talk to them, even when they smiled at me (well, Dylan ALMOST smiled, you know how he is). lolol  Well what was I going to say? Hi, you guys are awesome? Like they never heard THAT before.

5. Not sure I have completely given up this dream yet, even at my age, but always wanted to own a baseball team; it just sounds like so much fun. And now that I think about it, if 'W' could do it, why not me?

I am tagging:

Brian Brady

Monika McGilicuddy

Michele Connor

Far be it for me to mess with a woman dressing for dinner! Elaine can either pass on her extra tag or give us TEN things about her. Or just ignore it. Whatever she feels like doing with it..

i added Marci Toliver since she was silly enough to say she was glad no one else had tagged her! =)  Marci, I look forward to your 5 things!

This pic is for Carole...

Did you ever see the movie Pat Garrett  & Billy the Kid? I think it's the only movie that had BOTH Dylan and Kristofferson in it. It's a great movie!

now how did we leave TLH (Broker Bryant) off the tag list?  got him!

OMG you found Vic ! LOLOL  1963 rookie year; how fun thank you! LOL  Yes I did, I have seen that movie two times.  I may have to check out your link anyway!   PS: My best friend Connie was in NYC once and I think on the subway, and overheard someone talking about Vic and she had to butt in.....she said it was my fault they thought she was nuts lmao   TY Jay : - )

OK, here's my contribution

I tagged Paula Bean, Tori Stamps, and Alicia Hagner

I tagged Craig Schiller, Toby Boyce and Karen Hurst. I'll work on my 5 things - Angus & Maureen Mc may have to share.

1. Served onboard a submarine in the Navy.

2. Attended a Christian college in Hawaii and served as Youth Pastor for 1st Baptist Church of Honolulu.

3. Play guitar, congas & bongos, and write songs.

4. Serve on the Board of Directors for our local community theater.

5. Was the Drum Major for my high school marching band.

OK, I'm about to finish my post on 5 things about me, and I'll link it here,

In the meantime, I'm tagging -
                                             Jay McGillicuddy
                                             Ines Hedegus-Garcia
                                             Gena Riede

Ann

Thanks Carole !

I am tagging: Ginger and Roger, Nimo and Leanne

Ok, so I was memed by Leigh Brown. So let me see..................five thingies?

1. My father was a Lutheran pastor.

2. I had 17 major surgeries before I was 12, when I was sent home to die.

3. I didn't die.

Ok, Carole said a cheated on my number 3 so here's a new one for you. I guess you knew I didn't die:) Even though I only weighed 60lbs at age 12.

New #3. I'm 6'2 255 and can knock a door off it's hinges using a head butt. Came in real handy growing up in the south:) 

4. I call my mom every day.

I was memed by Elaine ...

Here is the post on my other blog.

My three invites are going to:

1. Tobey and Johnathan Dalton 
2. Toby Barnett
3. Tony Marriott

Great idea!

Toby, we are smart in CLeveland ya know why? I notice a theme in your tagging : - )

I'm adding a 4th person to my tags - just because I can!

My 4th tag is: Mariana Wagner

Ann

This is to be shared between Angus and Maureen Mc ...

For Maureen:

1. I'm really a shy person that tries very hard to compensate for this.
2. I've traveled to most of the 48 states - thanks to my previous company.
3. Like Leigh, I was the 1st woman to obtain a marketing mgmt position in a male-dominated industry. (Maybe we were at McCormick Place in August at the same time some year.)
4. My 'now' natural hair color is white, but then you all suspected that! Previously, it was dark brown. Thank you Loreal.
5. I used to be a Susie Homemaker when married. Sewed all my family's clothes. Kept the house really clean and baked several loaves of bread each week.

 For Angus:

1. Took golf as a phys-ed course at OSU. Hit husband in the head with my driver - at the END of the swing. Broke his face, but got an 'A' in the course anyway. Signed up for Riflery the next quarter. We got a dissolution a few years later. Wonder why????
2. Nearly killed Sasquatch when driving home one night from my daughter's home in the country.
3. Have gotten out of speeding tickets by crying.
4. My first car in high school was an old WWII jeep that I painted hot pink and put porta-walls on to make it look 'really, really cool'.
5. Have had dogs ALL my life ... OK, OK ... that doesn't surprise anyone! But I needed just one more.

BRyant- we are all happy you pulled thru as you have spoiled us here with your good post

Jay and Francis- I want to jump from a plane and hope to with my daredevil   daughter when she turns 18

Carole- I'll go in with you on the Baseball deal- would be really fun to chew tobacco with the guys !

Michele, I can see you screaming loudly as your son plays football; I detect a daredevil under that gorgeous smile of yours - cool!

Elaine omg do you have a pic of you in that hot pink car?????

Broker Bryant, no wonder TLW loves you, a man that cooks is very hot lol

Jay, this was fun.....now go to sleep...and then post your synopsis of the marathon!!!!!

OK, here's my 5 things, and the people I listed above that I tagged are:

Jay McGillicuddy
Ines Hegedus-Garcia
Gena Riede
Mariana Wagner

I know, I was supposed to name 3, but I had a hunch I needed to name a 4th!

Ann

OK, I will take the 'over achiever' challenge and I am going to add two more:

Jason Price

Damion Flynn

Carole, you are too funny!!!!  Was that a challenge???  FUNNY!!!

Ann

How do you choose just 3?  I have a list as long as my arm!!!

OK, I shall Meme:

Dena Stevens

Colleen Kulikowski

Carol Williams  or Carol's Other Blog

Teresa Boardman or Teresa's Other Blog

Now I must thing of something I have told already in my 334 blogs...me and my big mouth...why didn't I hold something back?

 I finished it..

kk

LOLOL I decided it was : - )

Oh to be tagged and tagged! While writing my prolific meme blog...

I am tagging 5 since I was tagged twice

Roberta Murphy 

LTW ( I mean TLW)

Christine Forgione

Jacqulyn Richey

hopefully they are still around and have not left for the holidays!

Jay, I sent Jason Price an email through AR but it came back : - (   I may go find a post of his and notify him that way.....

Jay needs to update his list before he goes to bed. It's only 9:00 pm there! Carole, you and I need to go to bed because it's midnight here! Don't have a photo of the pink jeep. Even if I did it would be so old, Craig S would have to do some serious work on it.

I want to protest. We were supposed to put up things that others wouldn't know. Broker Bryant's #3 doesn't qualify. He needs to come up with one more.

ROFLMAO  I had to scroll up and read #3 omg yer killin ME Elaine.  Ok ok, I will go to bed; I was waiting for Angus to post his five thingys.  Oh well,  I will read them tomorrow

LOL Guys - I have been tagged three times.  I posted twice, How many times are we to tell?? 

I have my first tag here and the second here.  I am done for the night.

BTW - I was trying to get all the tags in my review - holy batman... I can not do everyones tags or else everyone will be reading all through the holdiay.  Listen, I have a ton of stuff on my review - too much I think - but it is my review and I can do wahtever I want.  LOL.  I want comments - comments - comments.  I spent a lot of time on this and I am now seeing cross eyed!

LOL OK Christine, I will go review your review. But first, Angus has been here all the time and I was too cross eyed to see lol

Angus I love your list; my best friend is a mystery writer; I'll send you one of her books. Have you 'run into' Bobby since the chalk incident? I think a prank is in order lol  I'm an only child too; but it sounds like neither of us were spoiled ones : - )

O.K... here are my five, also posted on my other blog:
1).  I was an orphan at the age of 12. Mother hit by a car as pedestrian when I was 7.  Father died of cancer when I was 12.
2)   I won a National Grange sewing contest at the age of 14 (55,000 entrants)
3)   I have traveled to many foreign countries (Mexico, Cuba, Argentina, Chile, Israel, Germany, Austria, Italy, England, Wales, Australia, and Canada where my husband was born and raised).
4)  My lifelong fantasy has been to take a road trip across the U.S.
5)  I became a wife, step-mother to 5 and grandmother all in the same "I Do" in 1983.

Any questions?

(I'm working on my tags)

Oh yeah, I should say that I edited my comments above to include my list... (so Jay can mark me done!)

Carole - I hear that Bobby is no longer with us... he was a person with "issues" and they killed him. So I have been robbed of this opportunity... I like pranks and am not afraid to escalate.  :)

I was MEMED by Bryant Tutas!

1. And I have just come home, 1:00 am, from a wonderful holiday party. They were serving wonderful cocktails made with champagne, triple sec, and cranberry juice. Every time I drank some, a magic hand refilled the glass. What a nice party!!

2. I am doing the radio show at 12 noon today SUNDAY and there is a contest running.  Another Contest ! Live Radio Show- Sunday 12 Noon

3. I have been married to my beautiful husband for 14079 days.

Angus, remind me to stay on your moo side : - )   

Margaret and Carol, I have to wait to read your 'meme' tomorrow my eyes are crossed.

I am going Meme more, since Christine tagged me for a 2nd go 'round, I figure I earned the right....besides this is fun...

Ken Smith or Ken's Other Blog/Website ~ Suburban Househunters

John Novak or John's Other Website about Henderson, NV Real Estate

Steve Hewson or Steve's other website

Jessica Hughes or Jessica's staging the Kingdom of Boulder Website

Here are my tags:
Dawn Shaffer
Jim Wolcott
Gerhard Ade

Jay & Francy, I know this must be unreal to try and take care of but I thought I would just share with you that the list that you have above sometimes has DONE and it makes some of us think that it means that those names have been tagged. But I noticed that there are a lot of names on the list that don't show DONE even though they have already been selected and tagged. Just a little confusing and possibly meaning that a person is tagged more than once, twice, etc.

Lots of interesting stuff. Elaine two lists of five... 

Lenn did her meme on her blog  Everything you never wanted to know about Lenn who has been tagged

Scott Gormley.... I named my blog entry Meme me up Scotty and picked you among all the Scotts.

I have tagged three more people:

1. Chris Drayer

2. Teri Lussier

3. Dan Grammatic

Jay - this was SO MUCH FUN!!  I love reading all these things about the people we've been conversing here with on Active Rain.  And I'm glad some people have linked their MEME posts here - it makes it alot easier to find those posts, if the 5 things were written here in their comments.  Great fun!

Here's mine, in case it was missed - MEMED!!

Thanks Jay for bringing this to AR, and to Moo, who memed me!  Now, I'm waiting for those I tagged to get their 5 things together to share with all of us....... come on, you know who you are!!

Ann

Jay - This was great fun!   Here is the power of Active Rain - I talked about Clay Aiken in my MEME.  Somehow it appeared as a Google Alert and a couple "Claymates" have stopped by and posted.  How cool is that???

Linda - that is SO cool!!!  I think the public is finding us here on AR alot more than some people think!  I did a post on Wreaths Across America, where i mentioned the Patriot Guard Riders, and a member of the Mississippi Patriot Guard Riders found my post on Google and stopped by my post and left a great comment.

Gotta love the power of Active Rain for sure!!

Ann

I heard from the general public twice last week via email from Active Rain.... one on my blog and one from a comment on Teri Lussier's Huber Heights Ohio blog 

This is fun.  My meme is posted and I have memed:

David Eiglarsh

Roxanne and Shannon Moore

Teri Isner 

Ok, Carole said a cheated on my number 3 so here's a new one for you.

New #3. I'm 6'2 255 and can knock a door off it's hinges using a head butt. Came in real handy growing up in the south:) 

Carole,

I got the email.  I also got another one today from Chris Elizabeth Griffith.  She tagged me as well today.  I am feeling so loved.  I guess I need to come up with some things to share. :)

I have duly memed (thanks to Toby Boyce!) and I tag the following three memers-to-be:

1. Suzanne Marriott - MY Lovely Wife

2. Rory Siems

3. Ann Cummings

TAG!!  You three are IT!!

Tony tagged Ann..... 

3. Ann Cummings

do it on your RT blog.  Sellsius tagged me and I did one on my RT blog this AM.  Five whole nuther pieces of trivia about me.  Then I tagged one other RT blogger...

I memed

1. Christopher Smith
2. Christopher Smith (didn't want either to feel left out!)
3. Leanne Paynter

The five things

1. I've been a surgical transcriptionist at Georgetown University in DC for 12 years.
2. I told my husband when we started going together that I was very shy. He pulled my string and I haven't been quiet since!
3. I do feel shy until I know them and don't love public speaking (which is why I could never be a real estate professional).
4. I can play chess (I only mention that because my husband just found out yesterday). That reminds me: We just saw a chess game yesterday which has the moves on the pieces, for those of you who want to learn!
5. I'm a proud mom 'n' grandmother.

Thanks Tony,

Here is my reply 

I have memed:

Jamie Maxwell

HomeCards 

- Rory 

Bryant I would love to see that head butt lol   And btw, it was Elaine Reese who made the funny about your #3, I had to scroll up and see what she was talking about! I'm glad she pointed it out since we got a whole new image lmao

Okay. I have tagged Rebekah Peters, Alexander Harb, and Jeff Belonger.  My response is "I've Been Double Memed."  Thanks Carole and Chris... I will be lurching in the shadows waiting for my chance to get you both back. :)
