I've Been Tagged... Now, I'm It!!!

Greetings:

OK, do you remember when you were a "little" person and somebody ran around and chased you until they finally were able to catch you?  They slapped you on your arm or back and said, "Tag...  you're it!!!"  And that meant you were now the "chase-er" and not the "chase-ee"  And wasn't it fun if the little girl person you were chasing was the cutest little thing you had ever seen???  OK, maybe that was a little later.  All that said...

Back on August 16th, in her Blog, my very good friend, Menopausal Mother (or Meno Mama, or Double M #2, or Marcia D.), "Tagged Me."  And now...  I'm IT!!!  And I'm kinda diggin' being the IT Guy.  In addition to myself, Meno Mama Tagged 4 other Male Bloggers to be IT.  Spreading the Love, if you will.  So, Thanks Marcia for including Slu's World.  Very much appreciated.  You should absolutely click on her Link above and check out her, often times, hilarious Blog.  

There are a few rules to being the "IT" Guy.  The "Tagged and therefore IT" Person (that would be me) has to answer 5 Questions with 5 Answers each.  And then, spread the love, if you will, to some fellow Bloggers.  I just might bend the rules a tee-tiny bit on that one.  But, enough of that, here we go...

#1:  Name 5 Things That I Have a Passion For

a:  (easy) Absolutely, positively, without a doubt, my 'Little Bride'  :-)

Now...  It's my turn to "TAG" someone, and this is where I am going to bend the rules just a tad.  I'm going to TAG just one fellow Blogger.  She's from Texas, she's Hip, she's Funny, and I'm hoping she's up for being the "IT" Girl from my TAG.  From one Texan to another Texan... 

Tracy from CrazyAsNormal...  Your choice Girlie Girl.  You can play along and TAG someone else, or you can simply remain the "IT Girl."  But know this:  You have been TAGGED!!!  You are now officially IT!!! 

Y'all should click on Tracy's Link and check out her Blog.  Good Stuff!!!  And tell her Slu sent ya.

Takin' it "To the House"

 

 

Music:  This week, I'm gonna share a tune with you I heard on Pandora recently.  A tune I have always liked and hearing it the other day reminded me that I needed to share it here.  From Ozzy!!!  Back in 1991, Mama, I'm Coming Home.  Enjoy...  (source) 



It's Baaaack!!!  As of last night, it is officially NFL Football Season again.  Ajax can't clean the smile from my mug.  Ha...  My Houston Texans play their first game in San Diego Monday night.  Stoked!!!

Market Watch:  So, the Dow crept upward ever so slightly, closing yesterday at 14,937.  Meanwhile, Facebook closed up another point from last week, closing yesterday at 42.66...  Ca-Ching!!!

The End:  Again, thanks to Marcia at Menopausal Mother...  I appreciate you stopping by Slu's World.  Hope to see ya back on Mix Tape Tuesday.  Til then...

Be safe, be smart, and always show your Smile...  "Happy Friday"

adios...  vaya con dios
