1) Saw Nirvana at a total hole in the wall bar the week before they hit it big (Club Babyhead in Providence, RI). They blew their amp and were heckled by drunks for 20 minutes until they fixed it (themselves).

2) Had/beat cancer in my sinus cavity. Still going strong (fingers crossed).

3) Climbed a waterfall in the Lake District of England. It was amazing. The view looked like something out of the Hobbit: little multi colored patches of green farmland stretching over the hills as far as you could see.

4) Took a semester of rock climbing in college to get over my fear of heights. Got an A.

5) Had a one hit game in little league. Unfortunately, it was from the only one that year and was from the batter's side of the plate.

6) Lost 15 pounds in three days while hiking Mt Washington.

7) Apparently (according to the FBI, anyways) was the last person to talk to someone before his HEAD WAS CUT OFF BY A JILTED EX-LOVER!

8) All-over Jamaican sunburn. Ouch.

9) Head shaved live on the radio to win tickets.

10) Rolled 7 fumbles in a row at the last gameday.
