"What the hell is this?" I hear you asking. It's Todd doing #25 on the list below (I added the "and kissed" part.) I found this list here (I like her digital scrapbook designs) and thought it was fun to go through and see how I fared - everything I've done is in bold. Of course, I did take some liberties. I counted a little girl sitting in the pew behind me at church who drew a "portrait" of me highlighting the huge zit that had grown that morning as my #47 but still counts, right? (Remember that, Friend??) I also added Kevin Bacon to #83 so Corbie could at least get one. Be it noted that I feel I am past the point in my life that I will never do #'s 11, 22, 61, 65 so those will never be in bold - maybe I'll just change those to something I'll try someday like genetically modify a living thing. Wait, that I've attempted - let's just say I wasn't a great scientist.
So, now what? Don't worry, I'm not "tagging" anybody. I'm just double-dog daring the three people who read my blog and anyone else who feels up to the dare to post how you fare. I know you'll do it because double-dog dare's worked on my nephew who did finally eat his brussel sprouts at Sunday dinner. You're welcome, Janet.
Oh, and post a picture of you or someone you love doing one of these. If it's a picture of someone other than you it better be better than my picture!!!

I appreciate the Kevin Bacon addition (you know I love to see his name in print next to mine)...the weird thing, though, is that I've seen Bon Jovi in concert too! I actually enjoyed reading these - it's so interesting to learn bits of trivia about people we think we know. Loved it!
I've seen Bon Jovi in concert too...one of the funnest concerts I've ever went to, which is good since I have done almost nothing else on this list. I REALLY need to get a life!
Wow! Todd kissing an alligator...I would have never thought that would happen. Was he is Louisiana when he did that, per chance?
You should come and visit me, then YOU can kiss an alligator too!
Corbie: I knew you'd appreciate the mentioning of Kevin Bacon. I, like you, am a list person so this list makes me feel strangely like I've accomplished something since I can check a few off.
Tristan: I really should have gone to one of those Bon Jovi concerts. Ahh, regrets. Since you haven't done much on the list it's a perfect excuse to plan a trip. :> First stop Russia or Paris??
Whitni: How did you know the alligator Todd is kissing resides in Louisiana?? :> He was there to "help a friend out" (i.e. play!!). I would love to come visit! But believe it or not I'd come to visit you guys and not just to cross alligator kissing off my list. ha!
