*Number Four (and the FINAL Meme).

LIS (of the stick figure fame) from About Every Little Thing, has tagged me to: Join The Geek Train.

(Wait? I thought I was one of the “cool kids”….Oh well, the geeks are taking over the world. I’d rather be a Geek than Cool these days anyway…besides Lis called me a “SUPER HOT MOMMY” and compliments are my weakness.)

Geek Train – All aboard!1 – Write a short paragraph at the beginning of your post and linkback to the blog(s) that put you on the list in the paragraph. {CHECK} You MUST do this. {YEAH… I DID} No-one plans on getting slapped for duplicate content any time soon, do they? {GREAT, MEMES WITH THREATS}

2 – Next, copy the list of originals below COMPLETELY and add it to your own blog. {DONE}.

3 – Take the adds from the blog that added you and place them in the “Originals” list… {m’kay… I’ll try}

4 – Add at least three new favourite blogs of yours to keep the train going, e-mail the blog owners (or comment on one of their posts) and insist that they post. {Well…I will add THREE new blogs, BUT… I am NOT going to INSIST they post. That is rude, obnoxious and probably has something to do with ranking/rating and all that jazz, which, some people DO NOT give a rats ass about}
