Memed!
I’m so touched, I mean tetched - I have finally been memed! Oh, I know that it’s de rigeur these days to deplore the institution of meming on ontological grounds, or just ’cause you’re bored with it, but I couldn’t be more tickled. Thanks, Nick!
Five things about me that most people don’t know:
1. I lived in northern Virginia until I was 14; in Annapolis, MD, for ages 14 through 20; and in the Boston area from 20 through 39, and probably will remain somewheres here abouts for the rest of my life. For some reason, though, I still think of myself as “coming from” Maryland.
2. We moved to Annapolis so I could go to St. John’s College after 10th grade. It worked out, I guess.
3. The first e-commerce gig I had as a software architect did a grand total of $.50 in sales in its first week of business. I still have half a dollar bill taped to my office door in memory of that momentous occasion.
4. I can whistle a tune while smiling.
5. It’s pronounced KLEE-bee. Not KLEEB, not KREE-ger, KLEE-vee, or any other mad contortion.
I tag Chris, Jeff, Constantine, Jeff, and Craig!

Thanks, man. Now, I’ll have to spend time scraping up odd bits of info I haven’t already blogged about. How do you think I’ve been filling posts over the last 2.5 years? Can I make stuff up? Not like, “I’m an 870 year-old vampire,” just stretch the truth a little to make my five things better than yours. Does that work?
And why the hell have you filed this under Technology?

Who cares about how you pronounce Klebe. Inquiring minds want to know why Skott with a K?
