Is it only applicable in Boston?


It seems like it would deserve a medal anywhere. :lol:

That's a relief! Boston is pretty far away from me.



It was on a bridge, in a car full of adolescent boys.
I was wearing jeans.
Even more fun.

Things I've done that most people haven't:

- Climbed Mt. Katahdin (not that impressive but fun)

- Completely self taught throughout middle school and high school

- Developed reading fluency in Spanish and French (not that unusual)

- Paid for a piano and piano lessons with paper route money when I was a kid

- Went on a canoe trip in the early spring when I was 17 that lasted for several days and ended up in the hospital with a nasty infection in my face that could've deformed it but didn't

When younger started and ran 2 successful small business out of a garage ,inspite of physical disability.. Successfully for 15 years .. Using forced masking skills as a youth . Flown and survived 2 forced landing
including maintaining survivability of one of the light plane accidents. Thank heaven the instructor actually that taught me , Prepared me for avoiding "fatal " all crashes . Accidental electrocution 2x, 2 life ending vehicular crashes
as told by doctors to my mum.Many years apart, And subsequent very long rehab after short term coma.One resulting in permanent physical disability One murder , complete loss of family , and much earlynaivete!.potentially deadly interaction with police& sheriffs due to irresponsible Park conservation officer,and mistaken identification. During a breif daytime pleasure excursion with a male friend.Guns and shotguns. aimed in public of over 25 officers .Many many interactions with Psychopaths .( Most times unscathed.) Including 2 seperate lawyers and a group of public prosecuetors whose psychopathic friend was a neighbour,at the time, where we lived ,i unknowingly offended somehow in a smaller town that was attached to a much larger county Prosecuetors office .
Developed at least one property , (In a remote area.). Not tooting my own horn here just sharing some experiences
Several Major earthquakes aswell .

Walked through the middle of a flock of swifts.
Spent 9 months in Mumbai studying Indian classical music.
Wrote 350-odd songs.
Captured a very large unwanted spider, then put it in a cupboard because it was raining hard outside and I felt sorry for it.
Spent Christmas on my own happily making a large Fox and Geese game complete with little clay animals.
Pulled a muscle in my jaw while eating a falafel wrap.

I have taken lessons in flying a small plane and flying a glider. I took my girlfriend (now my wife) up in a hot air ballon (with a trained pilot).

I hiked over 50 miles in a week, recently. That’s really not that much, but it’s more than most people.

Lol

I didn't have ibs. I just needed a sh*t and it was the middle of the night. I was only about 14 or 15 at the time so it would have only been a small poo.
