I've Been Tagged!

As Cathy once said, “Aaaack!”
I’ve had a pox laid at my doorstep (blogstep?) If you feel the need to take up the spreading of this memetic virus, consider yourself sneezed on.

The rules:

1. Players start with 8 random facts about themselves.

2. Those who are tagged should post these rules and their 8 random facts.

3. Players should tag 8 other people and notify them they have been tagged. (see my introduction)

My 8 random facts:

I. 14 EEE (the shoes)

II. A B&W photo of an Afghani rabbi at the Western Wall in Jerusalem by Sandu Mendrea (most expensive piece of art I own)

III. A rerun of “House” Tuesday night (most recent tv watched)

IV. Quiet, dull, rumpled, and a bit blurry—but really funny sometimes. (How many people would describe me. It could just as easily describe a week-old newspaper found in an alley.)

V. The Spider: Curse of the Christ Child (my latest fiction endeavor, a Christmas story about a pulp hero called the Spider. Involves nativity sets laced with deadly disease)

VI. I am racially vague, apparently. The number of times I have been asked—unsarcastically--if I’m black or biracial astounds me. For the record, generic-white-European; Scottish & English, mostly.

VII. New nephew, born Aug 3rd. Jaxon Douglas Davis (Latest big news in my life)

VIII. No, really! April 1st! (my birthday)

Swing by Janet’s blog and say hi. ‘Twas she who tagged me.
