Given the title of this post, I think the first reason should be that I am modest. I would never brag about myself like this except my friend @Pandafur (aka Pandora) tagged me on her blog. She says it’s something called an “interweb meme.” I don’t really know what that is. I suspect it i

I make the list of Five Favorite Giant Pets that Live in Houses. Seriously, that list was made for me.
