T.F.B.

By
Real Estate Agent with Jameson Sotheby's International Realty

What, you may wonder, does T.F.B. stand for?

Too Freakin' Bad?, Ten Fingers Bloodied?Tried, Fried & Battered?

or

The Friendship Ball?  yep.. it's The Friendship Ball...

Liz Moras was kind enough to send The Friendship Ball my way... as a newbie, I don't really know many people, here at AR... so it puts me in an awkward position.  I can't send it off to a bunch of friends, as those I already know are 1) the ones who sent the ball to me in the first place, or 2) Those who have already been bonked on the head by the Friendship Ball enough times already.

So... I'm gonna "bonk" a couple of people whose blogs I've read, and look forward to getting to know better.

 

Jennifer Allen has impressed me with her pithy insightful posts.  She has a "interesting" sense of humour, and seems to have the ability to go right to the heart of the matters... So I tag Jennifer Allen. (Tag, you're it).

Another blogger who's impressed me is Jeff Turner.  Jeff has shown an impressive knowledge of "tech"dom for bloggers.  He's got a great writing style, very smart, knowledgeable, and a good educator.  Jeff went above and beyond, when I downloaded one of his widgets that had a complication, and he went so far as to contact me, and walk me through the installation.

And so I tag Jeff Turner. (Tag, you're it!).

I hope to spend time enjoying reading their blogs.  And I hope this doesn't put you, Jennifer and Jeff, out too much.

Alan, good job on the friendship ball, I will have to check out their blogs. You mentioned being a newbie, so welcome to AR! It is a great place, but I am sure you are already realizing that!

Thanks Marey, I'm not really sure if I've followed the "friendship ball" rules... but having only been here a couple of months... I don't really have those "friends" to annoy... er... bother... umm... I mean, pass the friendship ball to.  So I stretched things a bit.  Glad you liked it.

I just recently received the Friendship Ball and being new to the community makes it difficult to know who to select.

Chastity... I'm newish too, and that's why I just tagged two people whose blogs I've liked, and plan on reading more of them.  :-)
