Paula the Queen of the Surf Pirates decided to respond to a meme (mistake #1). She then decided to throw some locals under the bus (mistake #2). I tried to pass my gift to another but it didn't work so here are my answers to 8 stupid things most people don't know about me (mistake #3).
1. I was illegally adopted - parents were older and wanted a newborn. Not sure if they got a good deal.
2. I was an Eagle Scout so I learned how not to burn down a forest.
3. I used to race sailboats. Mainly cats and small sloops. One of the 8 people in the country following the America's Cup. Wondering how long it will be called America's Cup.
4. I don't own any Sammy Gear but I hope offering this information will at least get me a shirt - XL please.
5. I am a Referee for USA Swimming. It sure beats watching from the stands.
6. I sold my wife's car for $100 at a yard sale. We went out for dinner with the proceeds.
7. Never met Boy George but I did have a drink with Jack Kemp. Met him on a flight and asked him if anyone ever told him he looked like Jack Kemp... I gave him some advice on his VP run but it didn't work.
8. Good cook - awful at laundry.
Other notable local bloggers that have responded so far are:
Our fearless queen that started this - Paula
Our mystery man blogger - Monticello
Our former Mayor of Nags Head - Bob
Some others I would like to join this ridiculous exercise in futility
Bill's OBX Beach Life
Bloggers from Village Realty
Thoughts and Things
and she'll have fun fun fun till her Debbie takes the keyboard awayay.
Thanks for playing Ronnie
