-Marrried my high school sweetheart and have had a blissful marriage for 12 years.

-helped build a full-size traders outpost cut-log fort and created "Fort Lone Tree", a big summer ranch (bible camp) for teenagers.

-Had lunch and sang for the "original" govornater, Jesse Ventura

-Skated with Tony Hawk before anyone had every really heard of him (I was about 12, though!).

-Road a mountain bike to the top of Laramie Peakin Wyoming and lived through a fall when my brakes failed on a switchback going down (I was a lot skinnier then!)

-killed, breaded, and eaten a rattlesnake

-sang at that Nashville Predators stadium for 8,500 people

-Sang in 30 states and toured from the pacific to the atlantic ocean four times with my band

-played college football at the Metrodome in Minneapolis 4 times.

-In musical theater I've played dracula, Curly the cowboy, a man-eating plant, an angel, and king charlemagne

-got married as a virgin

-put my own hardwood floors in our new house.

-hit a drunk pedestrian while driving a 30 foot dock tuck and knocked him 20 feet (and he didn't even need stitches).

-sung in over 400 churches and college campuses

-built a HUGE cedar playground for my kids with zero help.

-sold a $1.4 million dollar house (too bad it wasn't mine).

-have never been to strip club of any kind. Such a wuss!

-have received workman's comp on two broken ankles at the same time

-have sung on 13 different albums

-shopped a song to Aaron Neville that was accepted (had to sing like him).

-have visited the Mall of America over 200 times

-can still dead lift the back end of most compact cars....although when I first did that to impress the dear woman who is now my wife...I ripped the rusty bumber of of my Dad's Plymouth Horizon. That was a rough one to try and explain in the morning!

That's it...and baby number four is well on the way to boot!

Keep sharing, gang.

Okay then, my turn...I've never had much of a brush with fame, so those stories are out...but I've...

  • Broken my leg climbing the fence to a well known athletic club in AZ just to swim in their GIANT jacuzzi. And then I had to climb back over the damn fence just so I wouldn't get a ticket for tresspassing.
  • Stripped at a night club in Phoenix to pay for college back in my "skinny" days.
  • I can shotgun a beer like nobody's business, but now that I'm over 30 it's harder to bounce back than it used to be hahaha!
  • Me and my friends bet a man that he wouldn't jump off a bridge onto a gondala (spelling)...we paid him BEFORE he jumped. Yes, he jumped and busted up the boat and passed out while me and my friends ran as fast as we could to the hotel...this was in Amsterdam red light district.
  • Had a one night stand with an ASU football player.
  • Called in sick to work and said a friend died just so I could stay home and have sex with my husband.
  • Bought a sling shot in Mexico for my son, but used it to shoot people on the beach with small sea shells hahahah...boy was that mean!
  • Convinced my new husband to streak down the street with me...let's just say our neighbors will never be the same hahaha!

Ok thats all I can think of even remotely interesting to anyone... I definately HAVE FUN LIVING!!!!

Mrs Christy, you are too funny.

OK, here's my list:

Have a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration

Have 2 Masters of Science in Management degrees, one with a specialty in Business Management and the other with a speciality in Project Management

Currently working on a 3rd Executive MBA degree

Thinking about going for a PhD after this!

My BIL used to be a professional race car driver in the NHRA series.

Played cards with John Force, star of A&E's Driving Force & NHRA Champion, during a rain delay in Houston, TX

Flew First Class once only to have my best buddy fart and blame it on me. It was a bad one too.

Have a thing for red-heads. Can't get my wife to go red. I guess I like blondes more. :biggrin1:

Here's my pitiful list:

!. I can swallow a whole piece of cooked spaghetti and then pull it back out. (Ick, I know!)

2. I can pee standing up. Again, Ick! I know.... I went to too many parties that didn't have bathrooms when I was a young adult. The things one will do when they're drunk!

3. I've driven more brand spankin' NEW cars then anyone I know. (My parents owned a ford Dealership and I learned to drive at 9 yrs old)

4. I can spit, let it drop and almost hit the floor and pull it back in. Ick again right?

5. I can wiggle the tip of my nose side to side. Oh God, my list is getting grosser, but hey, I kinda like the Samantha from Bewitched thing.

6. I can make my lips look like a horses. Yes, I have no talents.

7. On a brighter note..... I have the uterus made by michelin. I could carry quadruplets 3 weeks past their due date and still end up having to be induced!

8. I'm the only person in the world who would sell her husband for one kiss from Darius Rucker! gotta LOVE that man!

Pati, holy smokes, you must have brothers! Lot's of your talents sound like the stuff brothers like to teach their little sisters.

And triplets. You deserve a medal. How old are they now?

  • Shook hands with John Lee Hooker, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, Pete Townshend, Jeff Beck, Neil Young, Chuck berry, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennet, Paul Anka and on and on....
  • Worked 6 of the Rock and Roll hall of fame induction ceremonies
  • Was at the Rock and Roll hall of fame opening...and the concert the night before

Are you in Cleveland? I just wondered because of the R&R Hall-of-Fame ceremonies you mentioned.

I'm a huge Rock Music fan (particularly of The Who) so this totally made my evening.

You've got me beat on some of those but I haven't 'shaken hands' with Slowhand (Eric Clapton) yet - although his opening act tried hard to get me to come 'backstage' with him, LOL....But that's another story.

Thanks for sharing

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
