    138 in a 55. I was 19 and my buddy just died about 2 hours before. Cop must have hade pity on me. Just told me to slow it down or I was going to be the next on who was dead. Probably the coolest cop in the world. To this day I still feel like I owe him one.

    About 10yrs ago, had an A4 quatro-that was a nice car. Home late from work-midnight, get pulled over by town cop 70 in 45, says slow down. Next morning about 7, going other direction same cop pulls me over for 60 in 45, said "we have to stop meeting like this", didn't write a warning either time. I got some tickets in that car, just eats the road up.

    It was weird; first it was going real slow and relatively close to the ground. Then it sped to the horizon in a split second...Weird.

    Yea. Somethin like that. They even made me stop eating foods shaped like dicks. Lol.

    Ha ha. Close, but, no. Basically you have a crazy rash, hands and feet swell up and turn purple and peel, lymph nodes swell, fever of like 104, joint pain, diarrhea, vomiting, and if it's not treated soon enough your blood vessels can become inflamed and affect the coronary artery. And the heart muscle, valves, and membrane can all become inflamed and you can have arrhythmias.

    Thought I would revive this, since I wanted to start one anyway. :rolleyes:

    I play four instruments, but I guess that's not that uncommon (tuba, baritone, saxophone, piano).

    I have played the national anthem (as part of a band ensemble) at a SF Giants game three times.

    I have a blown joint in my left thumb from firefighting and I can bend it back three times as much as a regular thumb. I do really good at thumb wars! haha

    I have also never drank alcohol or smoked. (other than a glass of wine)
