Now some pretty standard instructions that goes along with meme’s like this:

*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}

    Hey Mereb, Let’s take a trip to Florence, what do you say!

    So, I dated this guy named Phil Pascorelli (I think that was how you spell his last name – it was only, like, three dates), and he is Chaz Pomentari’s nephew. Phil lived with his grandparents for a period of time while he was growing up. Robert DeNiro played his grandfather in A Bronx Tale. I love that movie. Phil turned out to be a little …different (email me if you want to know how :)), but everytime I see that movie I think of him.

    Thanks for doing the meme, Mereb. xoxo

  2. Dawn says:

    “If I missed you? Too Bad.”

    LOL – I love it… you crack me up 😉

  3. Meleah says:

    HOLLY: Yes, Please! lets go to ITALY! I am so sending you an email, I want the dirt on Phil! ha ha

    DAWN: he he he.

  4. joezul says:

    Hi Meleah,

    Thanks for the ping.
    I’ve added your name to my list. 🙂

  5. Michael C says:

    I LOVE that you listen Seven as a child’s name you like but can’t use!! I often introduce myself as Georg’s alias Art Vandelay.

    Could you have picked 3 better shows than 30 Rock, SNL and Scrubs? The early 90s SNLs were my favorites too…

  6. Meleah says:

    MICHAEL C: Seven is hysterical to me! Art Vandelay is just as good! DAMN! I am changing my list!

    Sometimes I think I am the FEMALE version of you, (we love the same TV shows, and CHEESE,we have the same love affair with TINA, we both have to take 9 million pills a day) only I am not as witty / or funny as you are.
    —–
    Joezul: Your Welcome.

  7. Michael C says:

    Meleah, yeah I might be the MALE version of you. I mean seriously, how many people can understand the nuances of the Christmas Eve Birthday and are so willing to promote Tina’s brilliance! Not to mention your superb appreciation of classic television!! Wow, I have a twin and her name is Meleah…
    😀

  8. Meleah says:

    Michael C: Yes Sir! We are TWINS indeed.

  9. leslie says:

    🙂 I don’t know what meme you tagged me for with that long ass list, but if it was the train….. meh. lol

  10. Meleah says:

    Leslie… Do the FAB FOUR. thats the coolest one anyway. I hate this LIST shit.

  11. Selma says:

    Excellent responses. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your generosity in welcoming me to the blogging community and for your witty comments on my blog. I heard about you for the first time on Hayhouse Radio and thought you were brilliant. Grazie.

  12. Meleah says:

    Thank you Selma.

    But I have a question…

    What and when? did you hear about you ME? On Hayhouse Radio…

    To my knowledge I have never been on any radio show.

  13. Devin says:

    Longest…post…ever. Lol. As far as the name Seven is concerned, I would be reminded of the kid on Married with Children (one of my all time favorite shows) so I probably couldn’t name my kid that either. I am a big fan of the name Gavin. His time will come. Hopefully.

  14. paisley says:

    no wonder you didn’t surface all weekend.. you were putting all the links in this post…. dang…..

    oh, and by the way i am an adopted member of the disorti family now.. so i will expect to be invited to the next family picnic…….

  15. Hey Meleah, thanx for taking the trouble to do the tag. Trust me, I’m no fan of meme’s especially one with loads of link backs, but I appreciate the trouble you took to do it.

  16. Meleah says:

    DEVIN: YEY! IVE MISSED YOU
    —–

    PAISLEY: YOU ARE INVITED!
    —–

    NICK: YOUR WELCOME 🙂

  17. leslie says:

    There you go, Melz.

  18. Exposed says:

    Wow, stripper huh? The things I didn’t know…
    As much as these are obnoxious, it has become apparent that everyone loves to share little details about themselves. These tend to be the things we think define us and are afraid the world would never ask.
    Or they’re just silly, but that can be fun too.

  19. Lis says:

    Wait, wait, can’t we be triplets? I love Tina and almost the same TV shows (I’ll catch up on all the SNL, I swear). All I’m missing is adopting someone who has a Christmas Eve birthday. As for the pills, I take health supplements. Does that count?

    Where I am, the cable channel shows 30 Rock and Scrubs back to back on Thursdays so I’m always home on Thursdays!

    Michael, Art Vandelay? So do you hang around office buildings with your Jerry counterpart who’s hoping to “bump” into some chick?

  20. Random Magus says:

    Hey! You are so lucky you got them all done I have two more to complete. PLease take me to Italy with you and Stephanie or at least stop in Dubai. We’ll have such a great time!

  21. Meleah says:

    EXPOSED: Hey! I have missed you, I will be popping over to your spot TODAY. Yes these memes are WORK, but, I guess they are fun in their own way.
    —–
    RANDOM: It took awhile to slap it all in pone post, its probably better to stretch them out, I just wanted to get it over with!
    —–
    LIS: OMG, Yes, Triplets it is!

    Ha, your vitamins can count, but you MUST watch M*A*S*H and all the SNL of the 90’s THEN you can be in our little club!!!

    (you dont really have to adopt a family member with an xmas eve B-Day, they need a lot of XTRA attention and you dont need that kind of work. (JUST KIDDING MICHAEL)

    *And when MICHAEL is AT his job, he gets to work on the the PENSKE file*

  22. Rolando says:

    Glad I didn’t get tagged with this meme, but glad you did cause you have some very insightful responses.

    I’m sure you’re parents would be happy with a million dollars, but I bet you a million dollars they would give it back to their loving and beautiful daughter.

    I’d rather be in Italy too. I’d be happy eating cheese and crackers with a bottle or Merlot under the Tuscan skies.
