I've been Meme'd

Heidi tagged me for a Meme. My problem is that I don't even know what "Meme" really means. The instructions were to write six wierd things about myself and tag six others. Here goes
1) I'm a closeted neat-nik. I like things arranged just so, even to the point of excessive compulsive behavior. I fold my underwear, iron my hankerchiefs, and carefully wind my belts into coils. But, I don't want anyone to know that. I don't know why.
2) I like a windy rainy cool day. It is probably from growing up in Oregon, but I like it when the weather is a little cool and wet. It makes for great sleeping.
3) I don't like Zuchini! Anything that prolific that tastes that awful must be proof of the existance of the evil one!
4) Before bed I always do the same routine: check the back door, check the front door, and make sure the stove is turned off. Every night, without fail. If I forget and try to go to bed I won't be able to fall asleep and will have to get up and do the routine just to be sure.
5) I always look behind the shower curtain. I'm not a big "spooky" individual. I have no problems being alone. Creaky, old houses don't bother me. I just hate closed shower curtains.
6) Before I close a car door, or a house door, or a motel door, I always look at the keys in my hand. I can't close a door without a key in my hand.

As to tagging anyone, everyone I know has already been tagged. Oh well.

Priorities?

I just read that the top three Democratic contenders for President of the U.S. have raised more than $60 million for their campaigns. What??!! Isn't there a better use for $60 million? How many hungry people can be fed for $60 million? How many homeless sheltered? How many seniors given housing relief or prescription medication allowances? How many programs to help the marginalized in our society can be run for $60 million? What are we thinking? And this is from the party that is supposed to be social issue focused. I wonder just how much money is going to be spent over the next two years to get a new president elected? Is it really worth it? If we stopped making war, stopped running "Presidential Idol USA", and stoppped subsidizing businesses; just how much good could we do in our country with all that money? How much good could we do in the world?
