Yes, write 5 weird things about yourself and then tag 5 other people to do the same about themselves, who then tag 5 new people.
You tag them by making a comment on one of their blog posts with a link back to your Weirdness meme.

That’s neat that you’ve heard throat singing in person. I bet it sounds incredible.

I don’t get it - what am I supposed to do now? Do I write 5 weird things on my blog about myself? Am I so weird that I don’t understand the weird tag meme?
BTW - I went to university with a girl who was an inuit throat singer. I didn’t really know her, but a couple years later I went to a Bjork concert and she was part of the concert. She was amazing.

I would like to hear some of that throat singing. Can you buy CD’s here in the US? I mean not on the web, but in stores?

Don’t worry, I never watched Mr Roger’s Neighborhood either. But then again it was never shown here in Australia (if I remember correctly), so I had a legimate excuse.

First, it’s especially wierd since I live in Beautiful San Diego, California.

As for the size, typically, you should wear one size larger than regular shoes but because I have wider feet than the average bear I went up two sizes. In reality, my ideal size in shoes is 13 EEE but those are hard to find on a budget.

When I’m rich and famous I’ll have a custom pair specially made just for me. But I should try skating again. I’ll take pictues. See me in all my 6′4″ glory.

Okay the binder clips I can understand. But unused size 17 skates? That’s beyond weird.
:-D
Seriously though, that 17 part - is that on the same scale as street shoes? Because I’m thinking you must be… tall. Or something.
