I'm it -- Five things you don't know about Clayton Blackham

I was tagged by Russ Page. So here are "Five things you don't know about me"

  1. I once ended up in the hospital after biffing it at a Monkees' concert.
  2. A buddy and I spent a summer working at a flower shop. I've also had jobs as a courier, grocery store manager, and paperboy.
  3. Jerry Sloan gave me the nickname of "Lightning" while I was an intern with the Utah Jazz. To this day the entire coaching staff refers to me as such.
  4. I dream of starting my own business with at least one of the many ideas I have. What's stopping me? Myself.
  5. I've run four marathons (St. George and Salt Lake Marathons twice), but have a goal of completing a full Ironman.
I tag Kris Beldin, Don Osmond, Bret Fitzgerald, Jonathan Bacon and, what the heck, Mark Cuban because I like what he's done with the Mavericks organization.

1. I played rugby at Indiana and after college in pittsburgh and dallas and still pick up a game
2. I was in 3 episodes of Walker Texas Ranger
3. Somebody somewhere has a tape of me singing Karaoke to "My Dingaling" by Chuck Berry
4. I think Jerry Sloan is a great coach, but I hate the Jazz :)
5. I think memes are the equivalent of The Wave at a sporting event, so i would never put one on my blog

1. I didn't graduate from high school
2. I graduated with a 3.79 gpa from BYU
3. I have a few ideas for inventions, but haven't done anything about
it... why? I don't know!
4. My son was born breech after they told us he was perfect the day before
(that's why they call a doctor's office a practice)
5. And just cause you included him on your list, I actually embarrassed
myself as a 14-year-old with Don Osmond's younger brothers and Mom by
walking up to them at the Toronto Science Center and saying "are you Donny
Osmond's kids? I followed it up by saying, I'm Mormon too! They promptly
left the area, and probably the science center spelled Science Centre in
Canada)!
