Five Things You Don't Know About Liana "Li" Evans
So Ms. Lisa over at Bruce Clay tagged me (updated: cctech from Technology, SEO & Web Design tagged me too) for this 5 Things Blog Tag Tree Meme. I guess I'll have to oblige, although I'm not so sure ya'll care too much about me, and would much rather the stories I dig up. :)
Anyway.... here's some things you didn't know about me.
1. I'm a geek girl, been programming since I was in 6th grade back when our elementary school got a few computers (Tandy TRS 80, Commodore 64 and Apple IIe *yes, I know it dates me!*).
2. I'm so much of a geek girl, I named my dog after the the tech book publisher with all the animals on the covers "O'Reilly", I lopped off the "O" ... my rescue greyhound's name is Reilly. However, I'm also a huge Buffy & Angel fan, and when I named him Reilly, people thought I named him after the character on that show.
3. I've made it a goal this coming year to run a 5k race with my sister. This is quite a feat for me, a year ago I looked like this, now, I look like this (and still working on loosing).
4. When I was a child/teen I had 6 broken arms - 3 on the left, 3 on the right. Started in kindergarden until I was a senior in high school. As a result my left arm is slightly shorter than my right.
5. I collect anything to do with pirates, I have for nearly 15 years now. I use to roleplay online (and sometimes still do) as a pirate - Captain Treasure MacDugan. My license plate even says "TREASUR".
OK now to tag 5 others: David Wallace,Eric Enge, Debra Mastaler, Joe Dolson and since no one tagged him yet - Danny Sullivan, however if I missed that someone has, I'll tag my fellow Eagles fan AussieWebmaster :)
Liana,
Interested in Pirates? This might be of interest to you. It's from an American History textbook used in high schools in 1899. The site is designed to be browsed and no subject/topic is ever more than two clicks away.

Quit exaggerating! Six broken arms, come on everyone knows people only have 2 arms so how could you have broken 6 arms? Do you think we're stupid? Like okay I ate so much the other day I had 2 upset stomachs or I worked so hard I had 3 headaches. It just doesn't make sense. What, am I supposed to have 2 brains to figure this out?
