My First Meme!

I read this on a foster friend's blog.
It looked like fun.
I decided to copy it.

I know what a meme is, but what does meme mean?

a cultural unit (an idea or value or pattern of behavior) that is passed from one person to another by non-genetic means (as by imitation); "memes are the cultural counterpart of genes"

Now we both know.
