I too have been infected by the same strand of pox

Like Dave I was also tagged by Eric. Keeping faith with the cure for the "Filthy Tag Pox"; my eight random things:

* I enjoy a good Merlot - And a full flavored beer.
* I have been to 31 countries. (most were not fun places)
* I have also been to all but six U.S. States.
* I have lived in seven of them.
* I am a jack of all trades master of only two or three.
* I saw the Rolling Stones Steel Wheels tour in Detroit in 1989.
* I helped build about 20 homes for Habitat for Humanity.
* I have an awesome wife and two of the best kids any man could ever want.
