Your Life

Does anyone have a good story to tell about themselves? Something significant that happened in your life. For example, when you were 18 you nearly got hit by a car or when you were camping in the summer of 56 you encountered a bear (with more detail of course).

When I was 11 I got hit by a car, got up, then walked home. This all happened after school at the school's cross-way, or whatever they're called. Didn't hurt much.

lol. Nice jayme, that just sparked something from my memory :p When i was like 3 or 4, I was crying because I wanted ice cream from the ice cream truck and I wasn't aloud, so I tried to go round the back of the house through the deck, and I tripped and fell down the stairs. Mom freaked. I was fine, I was heading to open the gate because I still wanted ice cream.

When I was like 4 or 5, I fell between the couch and the wall and bit or somehow otherwise cut my tongue and had to go get stitches. Got to eat a few popsicles on the way to the hospital for the bleeding...

Then when I was 13, I spent a day operating an excavator and a dump truck... I would fill the truck, and drive it to where my Dad was, he'd empty it and I'd repeat the process. Very fun day, that.

Where's yours Eric? You can't just start a topic like this without putting your own in...

When I was like 3, I thought I'd have to get an operation or something because I had a horrible pain in my abdomen. When I was in the ER, I went to take a huge crap and was fine :p :banana:

When I was 11 or 12 me, my cousins, my sister, and my mom were at a parking lot near my house. My older sister was learning to drive and I wanted to drive too. Now that I think back on it mabey learning how to dive in a car packed with children wasnt a very good idea. Anyway long story short, I started driving while my cousin was getting out of the car, his foot got stuck, and I ended up dragging him for a short distance on mistake. He was ok but he was mad at me for a long time.

i went through army basic training at fort benning in the winter of 01-02...one of the greatest experiences in my life. the real army sucks though...for me, some people like it. i've actually thrown real grenades, fired m-16's , m249's, (the SAW or squad automatic weapon...the army's replacement for the m-60), seen a claymore go off (shit not to be f***ed with) and grenade launchers and rocket launchers..the grenade launcher sucks, works about as well as it does in ghost recon. the army's usual rocket launcher is actually DISPOSABLE...figure that one out. i've been to hawaii for 6 mos, done some cool shit. hey, you only live once.
