Wow, Miguel must have been desperate with everyone on vacation to tag me for this one.

The rules are:

1) Post these rules before you give your facts

2) List 8 random facts about yourself

3) At the end of your post, choose (tag) 8 people and list their names, linking to them

4) Leave a comment on their blog, letting them know they’ve been tagged

    Thanks, but I already participated in this meme earlier this summer. You can read it here.

    Alice, how funny! I love Jamoca Almond Fudge, too! As a matter of fact, I had some today on a sugar cone. The second layer was chocolate chip cookie dough, which surprisingly made a great combo with JAF.

    Thanks for participating and, no, I wasn’t desperate! You got an inferiority complex or what? (smile)

    Take care,
    Miguel

    Well, first you have Glenn thinking you’re talking about him when you discuss Moses. Now you have me thinking I’m in the second tier. The whole gamut of self-esteem in one week. Seriously, I’m a full-flavored personality and sometimes it pays to tone it down with a little self-deprecating humor. Besides, it was an eye-catching subject line, no?
    Check out my four slides post and drop a line about which you favor…

    Explain 2nd-tier to me. I have no idea what you mean by that, or what it means. A gap in my cultural education (remember, I came from another country).

    Thanks,
    Miguel

    P.S. Will check the other stuff tomorrow!

    Miguel, there is a concept in Washington, D.C. that you have a first and second tier of guests you invite to parties (heard about this on bloggingheads.tv) and they will even call people and say, “If I don’t get enough guests, can I ask you?” to second tier invites. There are suggestions of this type of behavior in Austen and Regency novels as well. Notice, the fourth sentence starts with “Seriously,” that says all that came before was tongue-in-cheek.

    [...] Ms. Mercer tagged me a while back, so I thought this would be as good of a time as any to get back in to my blogging routine.  I’m supposed to post eight things about me, but there are some rules: 1) Post these rules before you give your facts [...]
