The newest fad on Facebook is coming up with 25 random facts about you. I also believe they have to be truthful, too bad, I could invent some whoppers. The following list is truthful, embarrassing, and totally boring.
I am not sure if the public is ready for random facts about me.
Here we go?

2-Had my very first kiss at the ripe old age of 24
3-Have a very quick wit, which can get me into trouble.
4-Have lived through 5 major earthquakes, including the 1989 San Francisco, dozens of blizzards, 4 tornadoes, 2 ice storms, 1 fire that destroyed 10,000 homes in San Diego, our home was spared, but we were evacuated.
5- Have limited memory of my childhood
6- Have moved 42 times in my life.
7-Hate the saying “We need to talk” up until recently it was never followed by anything positive
8-I am truly a nice person, but I have to convince myself of this on a regular basis
9-I find humor in most things, including my own cancer. The down side is sometimes the ON switch is stuck in the ON position
10-If I pay for dinner with my debit card and leave the tip on the card the ending balance always need to end in a 0.00 (example $40.00 etc,) I am a great tipper.

13-Lived in two haunted houses.
14-Love movies that make me cry.
15-Love my wife with all my heart, I tell her that often, but I really don’t know how to show it.
16-Met my wife in a “Southern California” chat room on AOL. She wanted to cancel our first date, but decided not to. Too bad for her huh.
17-Moved from Modesto, California to St. Louis Missouri to be with a girl I met on AOL. It lasted a little over one month.
18- Never smoked
19-Quit drinking on May 31, 1980. I was heading in the wrong direction at the time. It was either quit drinking or practice saying “My name is Ramon and I’m a …”
20-Posses a photographic memory that is in dire need of repair.
21-Short (5’-4) to be exact. This is a good thing; if I were any taller, all of my pants would be too short.
22-Shy, very shy, uber shy. Which is why I say I grew up invisible?
23- Taught Sunday School for ten years
24- Was married to a woman with 10 diagnosed multiple personalities. Over time, all 10 of them hated me.
25-Wear a tie to work every day. I have 30 ties with a matching shirt. They are all up on my closet on the order I am going to wear them. I never vary from the order.
Caution my next post will be the 25 random things about me that did not make the list. (there is nothing in the rules that say they need to be %100 accurate.)
But are the ties in color order or alphabetical order? Inquiring minds want to know.
