Well Well Well...
Those chain emails where you answer 10 questions and forward them all to your friends to help a child in Peru get the medical treatment he needs to survive cancer and then work in a pet rescue shelter have evolved to the world of blogging.
Well cool by me.. cuz if you're actually coming to my site - you're looking to waste some time and I'm not polluting you ibox with my answers :).

Now, I'll gut (or make that cut) and paste this to my blog, although I'm sure there is a more efficient way of linking - but alas (though I am excellent at what "I" have to do on a computer) I have not discovered the finer things in blogging just yet.
Yeesh. Alright, here ya go, just don't expect me to post this on my blog. I'm saving that for... y'know... important... stuff...

Hmmm, I just realised it’s been a long time since I took a full week off.
4 Of My Favorite Dishes

3. A basic breakfast (eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, toast) at any decent diner – The Nook and Falafel Place are two of the best
4. Fat Boy and Greek salad from George’s (the one on St. Mary’s) – it’s got salad, therefore it’s healthy
4 Non-Blogger Sites I visit daily
1. plastic.com – (mostly) intelligent discussion of current events and issues
2. Wikipedia – when you need to know about just about anything
3. cbc.ca – what’s going on in the world
4. rec.sport.disc – what’s going on in the world of ultimate, plus pointless rants about the game by crazy idealogues, college team hype, debates on which type of cleats are best, and the occasional ‘what if’ rules question that would never come up in a thousand games. Good stuff.
4 Places I'd Like to Visit
1. Halifax (Nationals, baby! Plus I always wanted to go there anyway)
2. Denmark (well, somewhere in Europe anyway… when I was a kid I always wanted to go to Legoland, so Denmark it is)

4. Some random warm place (with a beach. Doesn’t really matter where, I’m just gonna lie on the beach all day anyway)
And I'm not 'tagging' anyone else... not sure if I know four more people with blogs, let alone four people I want to pester with random questions. But there you have it.
