I got blog-tagged by Bijan. I am supposed to share 5 things that you probably don’t know about me and then tag 5 more people. I suppose that it’s implicit that the 5 things are somewhat revealing but aren’t stuff I would mind sharing with the world (I’ll leave out my phobias and crimes).

1. When I was six years old, I took mime lessons and performed on the streets of Berkeley, CA. I lived here at the time.
2. In high school, I not only had hair, I dyed it orange for a year or so. The dye was vegetable based and had to be reapplied every 6 or 8 weeks. It got exhausting.
3. When I was seven, I caught two sharks while fishing with my Grandfather. Of course, they weren’t huge.
4. I’m for “open borders” (and its corollary, amnesty for undocumented workers).
5. I like a song by Raffi—Old Mcdonald had a band. I also wish I knew what this genre of song was called so I could look for others like it.

After some thought about expanding the network in as non-overlapping a way as I can, I hereby tag Dave, Jason, Nicole, Peter, Yossi. Enjoy!

It appears I have a Erdos Pulver Number of 19. I have a “Pulver Comment Number” of 2. I noticed some branching as I followed the chain (including to “dead ends”!). But this is the legit chain that got me tagged:

Bijan Sabet -> Howard Lindzon -> Roger Ehrenberg -> Kris Tuttle -> Mike Herrick -> Patrick Logan -> Dan Creswell -> Steve Jones -> Brenda Michelson -> Anil John -> Pete Lacey -> Richard Monson-Haefel -> Karen Hobart -> Peter O’Kelly -> Irwin Lazar -> Phoneboy -> Ken Camp -> Andy Abramson -> Jeff Pulver
