Official "We've Been Tagged Post"

Ok, first and foremost, why the heck is my picture now on the front page of our blog??? I did NOT do that. I followed the directions and switched our blog over to google, and now for some reason my pic shows up. For the record, I am NOT the only member of our house in Jersey!

Moving on, our blog was tagged by Matt Van Brink last night, and since it's been at least 10 years since I participated in any kind of chain letter-forward-type-thing (even these new-fangled 'blog forwards"), I though I'd try this one, since it sounds fun. In my defense, I feel this forward promotes learning by exposure to new ideas, and that is how I'm legitimizing my participation. And since there are 4 of us, hopefully the other members of OHIJ contribute as well. Now, here are the rules.

"Find the nearest book. Turn to page 123. Go to the fifth sentence on the page.
Copy out the next three sentences and post to your blog. Name the book and the author, and tag three more folks."

And here is my reply. I swear to God this was the closest book to me.

"By filling out this form, you attest that you are a United States citizen and that you will be 18 years old on or before Election Day. (If you will not be 18 on or before Election Day but could pass for 18 and need some quick cash, fill out form V-18, available in basement room B-05 after 7 p.m. Ask for Carlo."

-"America (The Book) / A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction", by Jon Stewart, Ben Karlin & David Javerbaum (with a foreward by Thomas Jefferson)

So there. I shall now tag Sue, Brian, and Kate.

Have fun guys!
