A Meme

Being snowed in all week, lack of sunshine, and just doing the same ole same ole, I've been struggling to be motivated to blog. I haven't even been visiting. After receiving an email from my girlfriend Jill telling me to put down my quilt and start blogging I thought I better get a post up right away. For lack of anything interesting, I thought I would post this meme I had saved. I don't remember where I saw this, but here goes.
