Take 5 with Phil

Pam, is VERY silly. She shared her 5 fun things that nobody knows about her. I sure didn't know any of them anyway.

And now, I'm supposed to share five things that people don't know about me. Then I get to tag five other bloggers to do the same! Game on!

Here goes nothing :)

  • I won my elementary school's spelling bee when I was in 8th grade, barely beating out my cousin Heather Gerbyshak. While a year younger than me, Heather won the spelling bee the year before I did...and the year after I did. She's one smart cookie!

  • I spent 4 years in the Navy right after high school, spending time in Florida, Alameda, CA, and Seoul, Korea.

  • I dated my wife Kim for 4.5 years before we finally agreed to get married. We've been married over 4 years, and planned the wedding in just 6 weeks.

  • I have 2 amazing brothers, one who lives in Seattle, one who lives in Milwaukee near me. Both of their wives are pregnant, one is due in December, one in March. And I mentor a 15 year old boy thru Big Brothers Big Sisters, and he can dunk a basketball already! With 2 hands AND with 1!

  • I have a day job where I'm a help desk manager, and I LOVE to help people. I've been helping people as long as I can remember. When I was just 2 years old, I got my first "kiss" with a girl who fell down in church and she skinned her knee. I kissed her to make it better. This girl turned out to be 2nd in my high school graduating class.


    OK, so that's everything. I'm tagging Liz Strauss, Troy Worman, Jodee Bock, Ted Demopoulos, and Kammie Kobyleski. [Phil Gerbyshak is going to be writing more of his own words and less regurgitating everyone else's very soon. He'll also be announcing the winner of the Raj Setty contest very soon.]
