okay, I got this from michael, who got this from patrick, who got it from, maybe paul, who got it from scalzihead...I don't rightly know...
the challenge - post ten things you've done that no one else has done...
compared to others - man, my life is tame....(I know, you're surprised, aincha.)
1. I managed to make a man laugh, even as his intestines were falling to the floor. (he eviscerated after surgery...)
2. I gave birth to three babies ~ au natural...
3. I did a cartwheel on snowskies - okay, I didn't plan to do that. And my thumb broke in three places as a result..
4. I got snake whipped by a nylon tow line that broke while towing a stranded boater. I had welts for days, and then bruises where the welts had been...ouch.
5. I've resusitated a dying baby.
6. I've mixed and poured a ton and a half of concrete footings ~ by hand...
7. I enjoyed a glass of iced tea with my childhood idol, Sally Starr, at the height of her career, and my idoldom (is that a word?)
8. I started a fashion trend in my high school by adding an extra ear piercing with a sewing needle and ice cube. (needless to say, the nuns were furious.)
9. I've swam with a hundred or more stingrays. (they're like big labrador puppies)
10. I've landed a 12 ft. hammerhead shark. (Okay, maybe it was closer to a 4 ft sandshark...but still, it almost pulled me overboard and sure felt like a 12 ft hammerhead.)
your turn -
