Heh, I was born in the heart of winter. Still amused by people who haven't ever seen snow. Yet I want to go someplace that rarely gets it, and I have never skied, snowboarded, or any other winter sport besides sledding and ice skating.

That's wild. I wish had your constitution. I like the snow. Growing up surfing, it was easy to pick up snowboarding. A buddy of mine is surfing up here through the winter and was telling me this week how great it was, but I just can't even imagine. I shiver swimming in water below 75, and when the air temps get below about 25°F, I'm wretched all the time. This year we had weeks on end in the teens and single digits. I love New England, but I told my wife that we're spending next winter back home or working in the Carib.

Ok so I've read this thread getting progressively bummed about the "less than unique" life I've lead until I was suddenly inspired:

- I've had sex with my wife while her parents watched!


Ok, that probably bears some explanation before I'm put on everybody's "Ignore List". ;)

We were at the beach, way out in the water and decided to have a little bit of fun below the surface. While this was going on her parents came out on the beach and waved at us. We waved back.

After we uh...concluded things, a large wave hit us and I momentarily lost my bathing suit. Fortunately it was recovered and I didn't have to stroll out of the ocean in the buff.
 

1. I've been hit by a bus going about 40mph and walked away. (Much to the surprise of about 200 onlookers)
2. I've been sucked off a cliff and into the Pacific Ocean by a stray wave.
3. I shot my dog ala Old Yeller.
4. I interviewed Wil Wheaton.
5. I've seen four children born (one via Cesarean, one with the giant salad tongs of death, the last two were easy in comparison).
 

1) Struck out in T-ball (yeah, I was pretty bad at baseball)
2) Had dentist start to take out wisdom teeth before novocaine took effect (they break your teeth in half to take them out if they are impacted)
3) Been in a car doing 85 when we noticed the cop pacing us in the next lane over (he let us go - driver was the son of a state trooper)
4) Had loaded M-16 pointed at me when trying to get on board Navy ship to install software patch - actually heard the words "Stop or I'll shoot". Doubt he would have done it, but I wasn't taking chances.
5) Ate McDonald's for lunch. :-)
 


1 featured in a beer commercial
2 toured with an opera company (and yes I performed, every damn show)
3 walked on stilts across the whitehouse grounds (please take note of my nationality)
4 I still live in a house full of clowns (yes my fellow housemates work as clowns)
 

Oooh, another one comes to mind...

- Lost my virginity at age 18 to a 32-year-old divorcee (who was a member of my D&D group, btw). Seemed like the thing to do at the time. ;)
