Miriam tagged me with the warning next to the tag that she hopes she will not regret this. I rarely do the memes, but since she threw that line of caution in there I decided to rock the meme. All the folks I am tagging were probably tagged already, but why the heck not?

Why? What’s the point of tagging someone?
2 Hesh // Dec 2, 2007 at 4:39 am
Tagging is the classic way of bloggers to gain hits and a wider audience. By tagging me for instance she brought readers to my blog and the others she tagged, then I go ahead and bring readers back to her and the other folks I tagged.
It allows for folks who never knew certain blogs existed to come and check them out- while the whole time being a chance for the blogger to write a post. Its kind of like playing horse.

Hesh, the “The Wu Tang Clan Holocaust Song” you’re talking about isn’t by Wu Tang. It’s by a Jewish rapper from Staten Island named Remedy. He’s affiliated with the Wu Tang Killah Beez.

hey hesh!
I was expecting something a little more brash.

Hey Lakewood I am sure the person who tagged me was also expecting something more harsh. I am not always harsh, especially when its about me- I am usually truthful.
Hey Miriam I had no idea what the book was but my buddy got me one from Amazon- I think its a little wack- I would love to do a post about the subject- but I dont want to go overboard, maybe I could nickname it something else.

I should hope I’m literate! Thanks though!
9 Chaya // Dec 3, 2007 at 5:25 pm
Thanks for NOT tagging me.
You know how bored I get at work.
Note to self: Remove Frum Satire from blogroll
