My so-called friend Helena Bouchez has tagged me. I will try to be a good sport and play by the rules, which are:
The Rules
1. We have to post these rules before we give you the facts.
2. Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
3. People who are tagged write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
4. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.
Bill's Eight Things:
1. I tend to overthink things....like this list.
2. When I was a kid, I played the accordion (and liked it).
3. I am street dyslexic. I cannot mentally distinguish between certain streets here in Chicago. I always confuse Touhy and Devon, for example. I have trouble with Wellington and Diversey too.
4. I have no tolerance for grandiose or pretentious people. King George, Dr. Phil, Rush Limbaugh and James Dobson come to mind.
5. No matter how much I try, I just cannot bring myself to like: music with banjos or bagpipes, fireworks, television, marshmallows or smooth jazz (I think the last two items may be synonymous).
6. I am a New Warrior. My animal name is Fierce Wolf.
7. In a parallel universe I am 6'2", 210 #, play second base for the Mets, drive a Miata, and can afford to own all the CDs, DVDs and books I want. Oh, yeah, and the hippest women find me irresistible.
8. The funniest, most interesting people I know are my own children.
Next tagging victims:
Baby Z

I know I'm supposed to tag eight people, but I can't think of any others who are online. So sue me.
