Oh I got other stories. There is a reason why I have a skull hanging down from my rearview mirror. I figure if I keep death close I can keep an eye on him.
Nearly drowned twice when I was younger, once in a pool and the other the ocean, nearly hit head on by another car due to a dare when I was a kid, almost fell off a 300 hundred foot cliff in Sedona and barley hanging on with my hands when I was a kid (rock climbing), while charging a hill during live fire, a fellow member of my squad nearly shot my head off in the Marine Corps (nothing like hearing that zipping noise go by your ear. Never have the guy who only qualified marksman cover you!), nearly broad sided by a semi doing 65 mph when I hit black ice and started spinning and crossed over, never trust the "safety" on a weapon, nearly blew my jewels off when I laid the rifle down. The reason why I laid it down was because a round had just jammed and exploded partially in the chamber. I had to pick the small pieces of metal out of my hand.
HOOOOOWWWEVER since being married when I was 27, things have seemed to gotten better. I can't understand why my friends think I am bad luck????
Obviously some were due to my judgement as a youth and some just being at the wrong place at the wrong time, but then again it is how you look at it. I was at the right place at the right time because I walked away. A few inches here and a few minutes later or sooner I would be dead in each of those situations. Somebody up above either enjoys the entertainment or wants to keep me around for a little longer.
I will let you know if I can think of anymore things that happened when I was younger. I know one thing and that is if there is a thunder storm, I don’t stick around to see what kind of odds I have for lightning to strike me
