You look at the 6th page of your Flickr photostream, post the 6th picture on your blog, and tag 6 new participants. (6-6-6, huh?)&lt;br/&gt;
The photo of my nephew Joshua was taken in September at my dad’s birthday celebration on the beach. There are others of him in the &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tkalus/2896853036/in/set-72157607557920626/"&gt;set&lt;/a&gt; doing interesting things that toddlers do with sand. As it was taken in September, it reminds me I need to take and post more photos. Also, Joshua is number six among his sibs… and my sister and brother-in-law are expecting a seventh!&lt;br/&gt;
As for the 6 people I tag with this meme: &lt;a href="http://fernsdaughter.livejournal.com/18340.html"&gt;Chel&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://blargos.blogspot.com/"&gt;Iason&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://jodisays.livejournal.com/52710.html"&gt;Jodi&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://vitriolix.com"&gt;Josh&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://spasticantelope.livejournal.com/244367.html"&gt;Candice&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.ealasaid.com/ego/2008/12/flickr_meme.html"&gt;Ealasaid&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;EDIT 2008-12-10:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
Apols to those who felt compelled to post as a result of getting tagged; feel free to return the favor in the future.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://turtleish.com/post/63989927</link><guid>http://turtleish.com/post/63989927</guid><pubDate>Tue, 09 Dec 2008 16:22:00 -0800</pubDate></item><item><title>Chipmunk Face</title><description>Monday morning I had a bone graft procedure.
