Super Memorial Day Meme 2008

Ann Cummings — Wed, 28 May 2008 01:38:16 +0000

Have you ever heard of a “meme”? If not, you’re likely not alone, and if you
have, well then you know the fun these can be to read. It’s the internet’s
version of helping readers to get to know a little more about the person who was
“memed”, and this time around, thanks to Mariana Wagner of Colorado Springs Real
Estate and Laurie Manny of
Long Beach Real Estate, I was ‘memed’. Dare I say ‘thank you
Mariana’and Laurie?!?

There
are two me-s in meme because it’s all about me. Meme’s are the perfect way to
let other bloggers know about you, let your audience know about you and get to
know and relate to other bloggers, expand your network and watch your sphere of
influence expand outwards. If you ever posed the question to yourself, “how many
degrees are between me and Kevin Bacon?” this is the way to find out.

I am asking 8 questions because when tipped over the number 8 is the
infinity symbol and that is totally geeky and 8 is my favorite number and it is
2008. Oh, how the stars have aligned!

OK – here are the eight questions, along with my answers:

1) Who is your favorite musical artist? (post a youtube
video)

Gosh, I have a wide and varied taste in music! I love Island and Reggae
music, classical music is very soothing to me, I love the oldies – 60′ and 70’s,
I love the music the Celtic Woman sing. I like Celine Dion, UB40, Cat
Stevens, The Who, oh I could go on and on….but I won’t!

This is a video of the Celtic Woman, and one of my favorite songs they do -
“Sail Away”. They have the most exquisite voices – I could listen to them for
hours.

Ann Cummings — Mon, 05 Mar 2007 02:39:30 +0000

AT HOME IN STRATHAM NEW HAMPSHIRE – Stratham
is a small town, covering about 15 square miles, next door to
Exeter and Hampton, and is just about 10 minutes from
Portsmouth.

The current population of Stratham is about 7,000 residents.
Stratham was settled in 1631, and became it’s own incorporated town in
1716. At that time, it was the 6th town in New Hampshire to be
incorporated.

Stratham is home to
rural working farms, new and newer home subdivisions and
condominium complexes, some smaller shopping centers, and
wonderful peaceful country scenery. The townspeople have done a
very nice job of balancing quiet residential neighborhoods and
commercial development. Right alongside all of that are bucolic
rolling farmlands.
