I’m not sure if it was the chasing after others or being chased; either way it seems the BusyDad tagged me for this meme. He claims it isn’t retaliatory. You be the judge.

BusyDad mentioned this in the comment when I tagged him,

I might have to tag you back because…

and then this on the post he tagged me from,

I swear this is not a retaliatory blog-by tagging…

hmm, thou doth protest too much?

Hey, I’m just playing around Jim . I won’t be able to tag others though. I’ve already tagged everyone I feel ok about. If anyone reading this would like to be tagged just say so in a comment and I’ll be happy to oblige.

Ok. The rules.

• You have to post the rules before you give the facts.
• Players must list one fact that is relevant to your life for each letter in your middle name. If you don’t have a middle name then use a name that you like.
• When you are tagged, you must write a post containing your own middle name game facts.
• At the end of your post, you must tag one person for each letter in your middle name. Don’t forget to comment them telling that they are tagged and to read your post to get the rules.

afe. If given a choice I prefer to play it safe. I don’t take many risks anymore. This probably has more to do with wanting to be around for the grandchildren (that are WAY OFF in the future) than it does some issue with mortality.

ertigo. There aren’t many things I like more than a Hitchcock thriller. If it happens to be a Hitchcock thriller with Jimmy Stewart, forget about it. I’m there.

mployed. The vibe I get from my wife and kids is they like the fact that I can hold down a job. I’ve been working for the same place for almost ten years, and its not because I’m afraid to leave. I actually like my job and the company. Now that I think about it that vibe may be due to the fact that the job gets me out of the house on a regular basis.

ot a handy-man. I can’t fix a damn thing that really matters. Sure, you can toss some programming syntax at me and I will likely figure it out, or show me a network that is getting hacked and I’ll track down the offending machine. If you need me to stop a leak or add an electrical outlet you have two choices. You can either hire someone or pick up some extra insurance.

I will now continue the posts from a Dad’s eye view.

Oh, my middle name is not Sven. No real reason I picked it. I did some looking around at others who did this meme and none of them gave their middle names either. So there. Thanks for thinking of me BusyDad, seriously, thanks.
