I also think it's interesting how Facebook has made "friend" a verb. Does this mean we have no further use of "befriend?'
I got this little activity from a "friend" a couple days ago - a kind of mini-autobiography. I had fun with it. It's all true.
25 things about me
Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
Here's mine:
Velomann...
1 - married very well.
2 - would like my children a lot even if they weren't my children
3 - has 7 nieces and 7 nephews. So far.

5 - once won a bicycle by writing an essay about why I should.
6 - has seen a snow leopard print in the wild.
