Junction-Guy

1. I have been backstage at the Grand Old Opry during a show, I had VIP access.

2. I have been to the Kentucky Apple Festival (other than Amanda, I doubt anyone else has been.

3. I was knocked out of a chance to attend the GOP national convention by a prominent former US Senator.

Tired of the Hypocrisy

1. At age 18 I ran several people off the road on different occasions in a suped up pick up truck with a 8 inch diameter pipe fashioned into a push bumper.

2. Drove my '69 442 to have some work done to it. I was driving over 100 mph in a 40 zone. I got stopped by a motorcycle cop who asked wtf I was doing. He was gonna have my license yanked I thought. He then got a call about a robbery and had to leave. I got away with it!!

3. Same car, I was driving thru Tijeras Canyon (East of Albuquerque) at over 100 mph and I passed a NM State Policeman....I figured I had a good lead on him but I was wrong. He had a suped up Fury and he not only overtook me but he bumped me with his buddy bumper. You know I stopped. He ran me and saw I had no real criminal record, so he wrote me a ticket for going 70 ina 55 zone. It was enough to get me sent to drivers school. But I didn't lose my license......Oh, he showed me an under the hood supercharger on his 440 Magnum......

horrible life

* ~~Rode an elephant~~ (twice) Sorry Lady Lee. As per TJ's rules. My town's claim to fame is "Circus City USA".

* In about 1996, Ray Ramano (Everybody Loves Raymond) was at Disneyland with his kids, I heard his voice about 20 feet away. I was able to get his autograph, without making a scene. He said I was the first one to recognize him in 3 hours. I kept it a secret, and saw him 2 more times that afternoon, and he smiled each time at me.

* I was 16 when my sister was born. She was 16 when my only child was born. She had her only child this morning. My daughter just turned 17. Thought that was kinda unique.

* I licked a tick in the dark. (Now I bet nobody can say that)
