So Nyah. Of course, one thing I did that anyone else who does this will do is steal this meme from someone else.
1) I got paid to play with nuts for three days.
2) I've seen all 48 continental United States states before I was 10 years old.
3) Installed a 13-speed transmission in a semi using only help from my dad & a come-along. (For those who don't know, a come-along is a ratchet/pulley system used to pick up heavy things from the ground). I thought I was seriously going to die a painful crushing death. My dad also said he saw his life pass before his eyes.
4) Died 4 times in one morning.
5) Owned a butterscotch 1973 Plymouth Roadrunner as my first car.
6) Bungee jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge before the cops got there.
7) Hang-glided from the Columbia River Gorge cliffs before the cops got there.
8) Had a herd of wild dolphins save me from drowning after a harrowing experience with a rip tide off the coast of San Diego.
9) Been bitten by a rattlesnake, a ball python, a rat snake, a Florida kingsnake and a cobra. Not all on the same day.
10) Had to chase an alligator out of a hotel swimming pool.

Coulda been a bad current, coulda been an oilspill, toxic waste, sharks, who knows? Big orange & red buoys are the traffic-cones of the ocean.
2) Who goes swimming with a camera in a plastic baggy tied around their neck?
3) Who does not tell any of their relatives/friends they went to the beach with that they are going to swim way far out into the ocean?
4) When I felt the original cross-current, I was not tired yet and I know how to swim my way out of a rip-tide. I was too intent on reaching my goal to stop and swim back to the beach.
The Gods look after drunks and stupid people. At least if I'd been drunk I wouldn't have tried to go swimming.
