Tagged!?

Just when I think I'm keeping up with the new kids on the internet, something new comes along... you crazy new kids.

Apparently the latest buzz is being "tagged" - forced to answer this battery of questions lest some heinous misfortune befall a loved one/thing.

And so here we go. You can all thank Ms. Crafty.

Four Jobs I've Had (in no particular order):
1. Parklane Hosiery, 1983 or 84, I forget - selling Danskin tights & leotards to little ballerinas in the West San Jose area.
2. Sports Automotive Manager, OSH - Plenty of materials to get into trouble - forklift, nail guns, wire snips, glue guns, shrink wrap, pipes, key cutter, and candy!
3. Waitress - serving breakfast in the morning before classes, where I learned I could drink at least 3 pots of coffee a day and serve giant trays of food with great skill and agility even when painfully hungover.
4. TEMP! - at a number of places, including FMC, the folks who built the Bradley tank used in the first gulf war, and for those folks I had the pleasure of writing/editing and laying out proposals to build such things as a mobile rocket launcher, and an amphibious personnel carrier - something you could drop off the back of a ship offshore 30 miles or so & "drive" under the surface of the ocean & land on the beach.

4. There's really no where else I'd rather be than with my fur/feather family in our cozy house.

Four - or actually the one - Blogger Who Has to Answer These Same Questions or else... because I know just a couple bloggers and Ms. Crafty's already done it. No kittens shall be harmed under any circumstances and that's that.
