If you're tagged, you must list 6 random facts about yourself, then tag 6 people to do this meme...
1. I am much more organized in the cyber-world than I am in the real world. My desk at work sometimes looks like a paper bomb went off in the vicinity...but everything on my hard drive is neatly filed, my bookmarks are all categorized, and personal stuff is strictly segregated from business stuff.
2. I am utterly fascinated by Everest mountaineering. I have tons of books on all sorts of Everest expeditions, and know the names and deeds of all the 'major players' on Everest since George Mallory.
Oh. And I am afraid of heights. *lol*
3. I have been to the northernmost point in the U.S. - Point Barrow, Alaska, where I watched the Alaska Native residents of Barrow butcher a 42-foot whale on the shore of the Arctic Ocean in the middle of the night. And because it was playing on the radio in the warm-up truck, I always associate Louis Armstrong singing "Wonderful World" with this event.
4. I read lots of biographies, but rarely do I read one cover-to-cover. I usually just open the book at random each time I pick it up to read it and find a part I haven't read yet.
5. I collect signed, numbered prints (mainly by Bev Doolittle and Byron Birdsall - one west coast and one Alaskan artist) and have a nice collection of art in my home.
6. My favorite bumper-sticker right now:
F
The President
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Tagging anyone who has not done this meme yet. :D
