WhirledWeb 0 #4 November 10, 2004 I've been to the North Pole. I've also ridden, standing, on the back of a horse in the opening act of the barnum and bailey circus. I ordered a lock-pick kit off the internet and after hours of trying, finally snapped open a master lock... but only once. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Stacy 0 #8 November 10, 2004 I like to think of my whole day as an unusual experience. Within an 8 hour period today, I sent someone to the hospital, explained the importance of wearing pants, found that taco bell was out of gorditas, handled narcotics, stole a bench, and served ice cream to 20. each day is different, and unusual is the usual for me. __ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antifnsocial 0 #14 November 10, 2004 According to my mother, I once had the bubonic plague. We were traveling overseas when I was 7 and I caught it somehow, was hospitalized, given medicine and ended up just fine. Don't remember much though...Please feel free to reply to my posts and pm's, but only if you're smart enough to understand what they really mean.

dixieskydiver 0 #21 November 10, 2004 A group of criminals once tried to kidnap my family and I and hold us ransom. The plot was discovered when one guy in the group got caught for something else and gave up his mates. The police then set up an intricate scheme to try and catch the guys so they lived in our house for a couple of months while we moved from hotel to hotel every week. BASE Jumped off the New River Gorge Bridge Did the Polar Bear Swim in Lake Michigan on New Years Day in Wisconsin, 2 years ago (they had to break the ice on the shore for us to get in) Went Zorbing in New Zealand and bungee jumping in Australia and Myrtle Beach Stood outside while they eye of a Cat 4 hurricane (Hugo, '89) passed over my house Dixie HISPA #56 Facil Rodriguez "Scientific research has shown that 60% of the time, it works every time."

GeordieSkydiver 0 #25 November 10, 2004 It's great reading this, some things that some people class as amazing, I class as normal (but still cool), I'll bet some of you's guys 'normal' expeirences would be pretty amazing to me. Just for example QuoteSkiied in the Alps - Much steeper than the Rocky Mtns I skiied for 14 years in the Alps, I thought it was pretty good, then went to the Rockies for 6 months, now THAT was amazing..... so much real estate. Its wierd and very lucky that we all have different perspectives on the world. Isnt the world wonderful...LeeLee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
