Going Nuclear
with TaggingAnd mourning.
Unwritten rules of the Blogosphere. Courtesy. Spell check. Fact check. Short sentences.
Short paragraphs.
And responding to chain (e?)mail. The internet game of tagging.
I don't know what's worse. Being ignored. Or getting "tagged."
I'm "it." For now.
So.

Charmaine and I got tagged from our friend Tom McMahon. Who was trained by General Electric.
We learned from his four-some that he worked both as a janitor and Nuclear Reactor Operator. Probably at the same time.
He's more dextrous than Homer Simpson. And he's radioactive. Go bookmark him, anyway.
Here are the four I'm tagging:

"North Potomac. Used to be Gaithersburg. Property vaules went up with the name change"
Heh. I lived there for a year. It's a pseudo-town and not even adjacent to Potomac; you have Rockville in between them.
