History of Katie

A While back I changed my blogger screen name to TMNK (short for 'The Matthew Never Knew'), but an artist sent me an email saying he had full legal rights to the abbreviation (his stands for 'the me nobody knows'). Last week at my blogs annual meeting, we (my blog and I) decided to seek out a guest contributor to make up for my laziness in posting (and my writer's block). But alas, Obama was supposedly too busy so I ended up asking my wife Katie. So from now on, even though I'm not to use the abbreviation TMNK, you can think of it as short not only for 'The Matthew Never Knew,' but also for The Matthew-N-Katie. Of course, that isn't a complete thought, but it's the best I could come up with.

Here's a brief history of Katie being mentioned by name on my blog
1. She was complimented for her work on the 30hr Famine in February 2007

Interesting... was it exactly 30 times, or did you delete some to make it even?

I skipped a few (or a few dozen). But it was actually fun to look back like that :)
