Pete Blackshaw, CMO of Nielsen BuzzMetrics, tagged me for the Five Things You Don’t Know About Me meme.
Since I’m always looking for content, I’ll oblige.
RUN: Ran a marathon in 95; I run sporadically, but track it closely having run nearly 2,000 miles since starting in 94.
WINE: I don't drink, but I enjoy helping my father in law make wine. He's a first-generation Italian and we grind up 32 cases of grapes in four hours to begin the process.
STEEL: The ulna on my right arm has a 10-inch stainless steel plate attached to it by 13 steel screws. It symbolizes a tragic, life-changing event that took place nearly four years ago.
HYDRANTS: In college, I worked on a summer crew for the Hamilton County Water Works, scrapping fire hydrants, clearing brush from storm runoff creeks and helping install hydrants. I know more than anyone cares to know about fire hydrants as a result.
NDD (Navigational Deficit Disorder): Born and raised in Cincinnati, yet I can still get lost. I'm terrible with directions and can never remember street names.
The last time I did this, I didn’t tag anyone else. This time, I’ll ask Tom Murphy, Trevor Cook and Scott Baradell to overshare the joy.

I enjoy this "Five Things Meme" quite a bit. It's fun to go around to different sites and read things about people that you would otherwise have no idea about.

I'm so sorry you had to go through something like that, good on you for sharing it in this meme.
On a lighter note, NDD seems to be spreading amongst men rapidly...

Angus: Thanks for the note. So you're telling me I can blame NDD on my sex?! What a relief.

How do you get in on this meme? I followed from Pete's post and plan to keep going. Brilliant idea.

Kevin: Thanks for stopping by. Consider yourself officially tagged. Just be sure you keep spreading the meme.

Kevin, thanks for sharing what must be a difficult topic for you to think or talk about.
