I'm still addressing matters that I neglected during my illness. One of them: [Rhapsody tagged me](http://rhapsodyenbleuclair.blogspot.com/2008/02/meme-for-youyou.html?ref=thedailyeudemon.com) for a [meme](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet%5Fmeme?ref=thedailyeudemon.com). Here goes:

The rules for this meme:

> (1) Link to the person that tagged you.  
> (2) Post the rules on your blog.  
> (3) Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself.  
> (4) Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs.  
> (5) Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.

Six non-important things:

1\. I have a large study in my basement that contains thousands of books (actually, it's very important to me, but thoroughly unimportant to anybody else).  
 2\. [James Meredith](http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/USAmeredith.htm?ref=thedailyeudemon.com) once called me on the phone, and I once called [Russell Kirk](http://www.isi.org/books/bookdetail.aspx?id=3a172e5e-ddb3-429d-b3b7-62e287574ec6&ref=thedailyeudemon.com) on the phone. Both conversations lasted less than ten minutes.  
 3\. I like to shoot baskets in my driveway.  
 4\. My nephews call me "The E-Train," a name I gave myself while playing basketball with them after we watched a UM football game in which Brent Musburger incessantly referred to running back Anthony Thomas as "The A-Train."  
 5\. I like to play fantasy football, even though I now limit myself to one league because of constraints on my time.  
 6\. I once modeled men's clothing (for K-Mart, in a cheesy local deal; my 13-year-old daughter's favorite story).

I tag (and I apologize if you've already been tagged; I haven't been keeping up on others' blogs because of the Great Illness of 2008): [Old World Swine](http://timothyjones.typepad.com/old%5Fworld%5Fswine/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com), [Trubador](http://arbiterofcommonsense.blogspot.com/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com), [The Reticulator](http://www.reticulator.com/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com), [Quaffs and Quibbles](http://quaffsandquibbles.blogspot.com/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com), [The Blue Boar](http://theblueboar.blogspot.com/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com), and [Abbey-Roads2](http://terry58.stblogs.com/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com).

Reminder: I update the *National Catholic Register's* Blog Watch page, Monday through Friday. If you're a blogger and you post something worthwhile (not stunning, just kind of interesting), send me the link before noon that day. Don't be bashful.
