Turns out there is a game of Blog-Tag going around the blogosphere in which bloggers are sharing five things about themselves that relatively few people know, and then tagging five other bloggers to be “it.” The idea of blog-tagging is, to ask 5 bloggers to tell 5 things that most people wouldn’t know.
