The Meme of 7's

But first: Yes, for those of you interested, I do live right in the heart of Soprano-land in NJ. Yes, the show is very accurate. In fact, on my street growing up, there was a mob hit. The guy opened the door and was shot to death. Unfortunately, they hit the wrong house. All in a day's work, I suppose.
-----------------
Had a busy day yesterday bbq'ing and drinking with my some of my girlfriends, and today is equally busy. So I leave you with this: the meme of 7's. I was tagged by Better Safe Than Sorry this time. Read to the end to see if you are tagged:

And also, go check out this week's Carnival of New Jersey Bloggers. This is my first time participating - my link is down in Southern NJ by Atlantic City because that's what my post was about. Who knew there were so many Jersey bloggers out there?

Loved your Atlantic City post.

Used to go to Montauk, Point Pleasant or Wildwood; go to California now--use skymiles and everything's a bit cheaper there

Live in Manhattan, but I'm a LonguyIsland girl through and through--gawd, am I, and soon there's going to be an Islandblog that's going to kick your collective arses--or so I've been told.

Not that I want to kick yours--but the Island vs Jersey.

But do think that the Sopranos is the best show ever on TV. Edie Falco and Jamie Lynn whoever she is now are both from the Island--one from someplace I'm from.

alrightly i'll do it. 7 was after all my lucky number when i was a kiddo (born on the 7th of september, that's why....)

Sleeping Mommy said...

It's been a while since I did a meme, so I think I will humor ya. :)

My husband is a huge Sopranos fan, he sucked me into it after when we got married, it was after the first one or two seasons, so I never saw those.

You have got to meet JBJ! Seems we have a few 7s in common, in addition to us both living in soprano-land. My mom's friend actually lives in the house that was used as the exterior for the show. Have a good one... D

Henry Rollins? I never thought of him as sexy. I'll have to google a pic and check out his package.

My friend is the location scout for the Sopranos. AND I've been to that MOB neighborhood - my sis lives near it! She took me on a driving tour around the gaudy homes and I was going to take a picture but she quickly swerved around because we didn;t want to get shot at! When I am there soon, I am taking a pic of some of the homes! They are really ostentatious!

Danielle said...

Bridget Unnel said...

It's funny that I just posted about my new celeb crush, Brandon Flowers from the Killers, and then I came over to read your blog and saw your celeb crush list. Looks a lot like mine. I see you also have The Killers Hot Fuss on your listening list. I haven't bought the whole CD yet, just some choice songs on iTunes. Is the whole thing good?
