I Guess I'm "IT"

If you check out the comments for my last post, you’ll see that I’ve been “tagged” by Old Lady. At first, I didn’t have a clue what that was supposed to mean. But then I read her 9/6 post. And then I read the 9/4 post of A Cup of Coffey, who tagged her.

So in keeping the game rolling, I have tagged Ms. Pink Slip, Famous Potatoes, and Nick.

And below are the lists that I assume I am supposed to include, based on those other two tagged posts I read.
