What did you do? What was cool? I dunno, we have threads about cool bands, movies, pop culture bullshit. Well what have you done that was cool? What's the favorite thing that you got to do?
1.) Yosemite National Park and hiking up Half Dome was one of the most memorable experiences ever for me. I'm really scared of heights and to face that fear to a pretty high extreme was quite invigorating for me
2.) Pitching at Shea Stadium and playing the city championship there another time and winning was pretty cool, at least to me.
Getting published in the comic book biz was cool. Independent comic, I was the inker but still...I felt really cool signing copies in our local comic book store and comic conventions.
I thought being a web designer and being involved in the whole Internet thang very cool...until it all bottomed out. Now if I mention that I'm a web designer to someone they say, "Oh, sorry to hear about that...". <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />
Though not cool, I can claim to have done T. E. Lawrence's (Lawrence of Arabia's) gardening. He lived locally at <a href="http://www.touruk.co.uk/houses/housedor_cloud.htm"; target="_blank">Clouds Hill</a>, now a National Trust property. Oh, but he had been dead for over fifty years <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" /> Never mind...
I've made it into two national magazines, both for Mac-related reasons (Wired for Apple mock-ups, along with a few other people here) and writing an Illustrator tutorial column in Mac Design.
I was proud of those two.
I've played on stage in front of 1,000+ people on a couple of occasions, and that's always a rush.
I've fulfilled both of my all-time sexual fantasies, on more than one occasion (and no, I won't talk about it...so don't ask).
I've driven 146mph in a Corvette Stingray for a brief moment.
I've driven across the country 5 or 6 times over the past nine years.
I've written some pretty good songs over the years. On a good day, I'd put them up against Squeeze or Crowded House.

Unicorns are SEXY! And this one had a bit of a Southern accent, so it was extra special...
Just kidding. I mean "goons" in the sweetest way possible.

I'd like to make it absolutely clear that I have never tweaked pscates, and certainly not in a nice way! :eek:
Having said that, I'm quite touched. <img src="graemlins/embarrassed.gif" border="0" alt="[Embarrassed]" />
I'd like to make it absolutely clear that I have never been touched by pscates. :eek:
