Freeze Tag

Why freeze tag? Because this tag chain stops here! After I do my seven things, of course. I won't put anyone else through the pain. I usually never do these sort of things, but since I have nothing else to blog at the moment, I'll give it a shot.

1) I'm 1.5 times the man Jenna married, literally.

2) If I didn't have to worry about money or have job, I'd have a house with a big enough yard that I could build a huge shop that would house a complete woodworking shop, ceramics area, painting and drawing area, and all the supplies to go with it, and become a full-time artist. But since I do have a job and do have to worry about money, this will likely never happen.

3) My Mii, which is my Wii character, looks just like me.

4) Each of my children have been born progressively farther south and in a different state - Rexburg, ID, Provo, UT, Las Vegas, NV, and Chandler, AZ. So we are pretty much done having children, unless we move to Mexico - and that ain't gonna happen.

5) I am the inventor of the SQI factor (pronounced 'skwee' - trademark pending). The SQI factor, or Snack Quality Index, is an index number based on a complex proprietary equation that I developed in college to help me best determine which snack from the vending machine would give me the biggest bang for my buck, but also taste good. I still use the SQI in my snack-making decisions today. This may help explain item 1) above. And yes, I am an engineer.

6) I was punched twice in the face on my mission. Myself and 3 other missionaries were riding the metro (subway) back home from a zone conference where the main topic was charity. We were the only people on the car, except for one other guy. This guy made his way over to our group and began speaking to a greenie, and supposing that the greenie couldn't understand, I asked the man if I could help him. He looked at me a muttered something indistinguishable and then proceeded to punch me in the face. My head swung the other way toward my companions and the looks on their faces were priceless - complete astonishment and everybody just froze. I turned back and exclaimed why had he done that, and then received a nice forearm shiver to the face as he walked by again and out the door just as the train stopped. We were dumbfounded as it happened so fast. It didn't necessarily hurt, but my cheek did feel warm the rest of the day. This guy was doped or possessed or something.

7) I just saved a ton of money by switching to GEICO.
