This was sent to me in an email from my friend Tsoniki but instead of emailing it back to her and then emailing it on to other friends I decided to just make it a blog post – wasn’t that just creative of me? LOL! If you want to play along, go ahead but don’t forget to comment so I can head over to your blog and check out your answers

Welcome to the 2008 edition of getting to know your friends.

What you are supposed to do is copy (not forward) this entire e-mail and paste it onto a new e-mail that you will send.
