If you’ve spent any moments which have unexpectedly turned to hours surfing the net in the past month, you will readily identify with this entry, I hope. When I get up from my desk after a long time on the net – whether blogging, researching, playing, or interest-surfing – I tend to feel somewhat frustrated [...]
7 weird or random facts
Posted By Jeff on January 7th, 2009
Shane tagged me on his blog for this meme. I’m supposed to list seven random or weird facts about myself and then tag seven other people. I did this meme a while back, but after reviewing it, I realized that I’d been a little out of sorts on that particular post. So… here goes:
- I drove a pink Cadillac during the summer of my sophomore year in college.
- I was so skinny in high school my “friends” started a “USA for Jeff” campaign.
- I once played a saxophone duet with then-Governor of Arkansas Bill Clinton. On stage. With live television coverage…. Ok, that’s a complete lie, but I was struggling at #3.
- Juices flowing again, I used to drink Isomil with my cereal well into my teen years since I was allergic to milk.
- I think I’d like to run for political office one day.
- My first wreck was a 4-car slide up on Rodney Parham Road just in front of Pulaski Academy in high school. Thin layer of ice on the ground. Chris Franzetti was in the car with me. We both said, “Uh-oh,” before we ran into the car in front of us, who’d run into the car in front of him. Then we were hit from behind.
- I was chained to a railing in the courtyard of the freshman girl’s dorm at Ouachita during a serenade by my social club. I had mistakenly announced a crush on Michelle Utley. My “brothers” kindly arranged for her to come down and paint my face with makeup while I was locked up. On top of that, I never got a date with her.
Ok, for my seven folks: Shane (he’s down now but will soon be back up), AJ, Michael, TJ (his blog may be dead, but you can email him here and beg him to post again because he’s stinking funny when he does), another TJ, Richard, Andy, and the Vallances.
On this day...

Hey that wasn’t so hard :). #5 – I’ve been asked about that because of my interest in politics. I doubt I will, but who knows perhaps the right circumstances and right office.
I used to have to drink milk substitute for a while when they thought I was lactose intolerant as well. With #7 – all in God’s plan obviously, but it is too bad you didn’t get at least a date out of that humiliation.
