Long Beach Real Estate-Long Beach Condos

Mary McKnight thought it would be funny to Meme me. A meme is a sort of internet chain letter, yeah I know we all hate chain letters, I'm no exception. A meme lets other people know details about you that you might not otherwise disclose on your blog. This particular meme revolves around the number 8. There are 8 questions and I have to annoy 8 other bloggers to do this as well. The number 8 is the infinity symbol, 8 is Mary's favorite number and it is 2008.

So without further ado:

1. Who is your favorite musical artist? (post a youtube video)

Oh great! How am I supposed to pick a favoite artist? There are so many! From which era of my life? For which one of my moods? Good grief!

• Pink Floyd?
• Billy Joel?
• Bruce Springsteen?
• The Beach Boys?
• Bette Midler?
• The Beatles?
• The Stones?
• Billie Holiday?
• Billy Idol?
• Cat Stevens?
• David Bowie?
• Eric Clapton?
• Etta James?
• Louis Armstrong?
• Harry Chapin?
• The Mama's and the Papa's?
• and on and on and on...

Ok, I grew up in New York and when I was a kid I would travel with my Grandmother during the summers. One of our many trips took us to California. I was 14 and I knew I arrived at my future home the minute my foot hit the tarmac and I breathed in the California air.

My hat is off to the Mama's and the Papa's for this one:

2. Who is your favorite artist (post a flicker photo)

Wyland, a Laguna Beach Artist famous for his dolphin and whale paintings.  He has painted walls and buidings all over the world.  Unfortunately his paintings are very much copyrighted and are not available to post here.

3. Who is your favorite blogger?

Oh Great! Another tuffie!  Do I even have a favorite blogger?  Thinking, thinking thinking......

Nope, don't have a favorite.  Yes that is possible!  There are just too many good ones out there.

4. If you could meet anyone (alive or dead), who would it be and what is the most interesting thing about them?

Lee Iacocca, a personal favorite of mine.  I have always wished he would run for president so I could stop wishing for a none of the above category. 

5. What did you want to be when you grew up?

When I was very young I wanted to be a race car driver. They forgot to tell me that little girls weren't supposed to dream about that, lol.  I have always wanted to sell real estate believe it or not. 

6. What is the most interesting piece of trivia you know?

Wow!  There is so much interesting trivia out there to pick from.  I guess a couple of my favorites are:

• It is illegal to Detonate anuclear device within the city limits of Chico California and results in a $500 fine. Duh!!!
• As a gun owner this one is a favorite of mine.  The City of Los Angeles says it is illegal for a man to beat his wife with a strap wider than 2 inches without her consent.  Short of sumptin kinky, I'd call him a dead man!
  

7. If you could live in any point in history what would it be and why?

History sucked for women, why would I want to live in it? I want to live in the present and do something about creating a better future for our world.

8. What is the most interesting job you have ever held?

I worked for 11 years in the Music and Entertainment businesss, with most of the big names and top executives.   Ha, I know an awful lot that the rest of you don't and I'm not talking!

Now for the fun part, I get to tag 8 more unsuspecting bloggers.
