Posted by Mert Erkal on Feb 4, 2008 in Blog | 4 commentsRecently I was tagged by my friend David Rogers in his blog post Seven strange things you didn’t want to know. Now it is my turn. Here you may find 7 strange but true things about me list from me:
1. I lost my dad when I was 33. My mom lost her dad when she was 33.
