Thanks for the tag Cord. Now I can actually write something on my own blog rather than constantly commenting on yours.

So here are 8 random things you may not know about me:

1. This is the first time I have been “tagged”.

2. In high school, I had a part time job showing up to parties in character costumes. Yea, I was Barney. One time they sent me out as the Red Power Ranger. I was wearing a full body spandex suit with an over sized helmet leaving very little to the imagination. It was a pretty large party and there were like 20 moms who I’m pretty sure never took their eyes off me. I have never in my life, sense that day, felt more like an objectified slab of beef. A shame really.

3. Even though I have been running my own company profitably for a year now, I still have no idea what I am actually doing. I just take it a day at a time and do everything I can to bring value to my clients.

4. I have yet to meet anyone else in the business world who has a better plan.

5. I met my wife at a swing club… swing dancing… what were you thinking? When we met she had just turned 21. After our first dance, I asked if I could get her a drink. I came back with a sprite. I was 19. She was surprised but she thought I was cute and liked my moves. The rest is history.

6. In the past year, I have lost over 30 pounds playing Ultimate Frisbee. I was up to 260 lbs at one point. Now I am down to 225.

7. I am lucky enough to be married to the first and only love of my life.

8. I don’t think God and Government should have anything to do with each other. I would even like to see God out of the pledge and off the Dollar Bill. I even think it is wrong to force people to swear on a religious text in court. I have nothing against religion, I just don’t like civic decisions being made within religious context.

So now I guess I have to tag some other peeps.

Feel free to comment any stuff about yourself that I don’t know.

Between family life, working on new clients, making time to work on GiveAndGo.org and and maintaining my status as top commenter on MarketingHipster.com for 2 months in a row, I have been neglecting my own soap box. (Any monthly prizes for top commenter Cord?)

Over the past year Bold interactive has gone through plenty of trials, adjustments, tweaks, more trials and more adjustments. The good news is that through it all, we have remained profitable and continue to grow while still keeping our focus of working with people we like, on projects that add value to our clients and their customers.

It has been a fun ride with some great people and until now things have been pretty manageable for me. Until last month, Garrett moved to Philly and Bold landed it’s biggest contract to date. The company has finally grown too big for my britches.

That being said, help has arrived. Her name is Nathania Johnson and I expect great things from her for Bold, Our Clients, Conversational Marketing, Social Media Marketing and Online Custom Publishing.

Look for some great tidbits and insights from her and others on BoldInteractive.com. If you haven’t already subscribed to it, now is the time. I may even get around to a post or two over there as the muse strikes.
