Technically shotgun "bullets" are called shells :p
And If it's anything smaller than a 12ga (410, etc.) it doesn't count.
Ever fired a 10ga? Like an effing cannon! My shoulder was sore for a week! :eek:
 
1. Lived with a tribe of Huaorani Indians for 6 weeks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huaorani) Also became a part of their tribe.
2. Took a swing at the top Hells Angel in a city of 1 million+ people.
3. Worked in the most violent prison in Canada at age 19.
4. Held "accidental death and bodily dismemberment insurance" at the age of 19 :D
5. Been "bottled" in a bar fight
6. Carried a gun in relation to work duties (I know that doesn't mean much in the USA, but in Canada NOBODY has a gun except the police and a few armed guards).
7. Been hit by a drunk driver :mad:
8. Handled approx. 100+ dead bodies (adults and children)
9. Saved a life
10. Physically and sexually assaulted 2 female police officers on two separate occasions and didn't get my ass kicked!

Ok let me explain that last one before I get banned. . . the first one was in a bar fight, I was working as a doorman. I saw her going into the fight to grab someone (but didn't notice the crest on her arm) and shoved her back away from the fight, and into a wall. . . . as she goes flying I see the crest on her arm and nearly soil my drawers! Thankfully she was a good sport about it. Second one was also at the bar, I ran by (on the way to a fight) and MEAN'T to slap her on the shoulder but miscalculated slightly and caught her square in the CHEST! :eek: Thankfully she also just laughed it off :eek:
 
I've got one! Written a thesis on Career Indecision and Career Certainty and factors that influence a persons ability to decide on a career :D
 
Flown across the Atlantic at least 50 times before my 18th birthday.

Experienced a high school and college undergrad education that cost roughly 25% of what the average American will earn in their lifetime.

Bah.

3. Grew up in a town situated on top of a 70 million year old comet impact site in North America (bonus if you know the name of the town).

Manson, Iowa (I don't live in the US so don't slate if it's wrong.)

Hmm, I've...

1. Climbed Mount Kilimanjaro
2. Ran a successful business at 15
3. Saved several lives

I'll check back after this year where I'll hopefully have run a marathon, climbed the highest mountain in the world outside the himalayas and swam the English Channel.
 
For me:

1) Eaten chili made with rattlesnake meat (unless you're from Texas or New Mexico, you probably haven't tried this!).

2) Eaten a durian fruit from Malaysia. I'll guarantee almost nobody here will want to try it, because the hydrogen sulfide smell of the fruit will knock people flat on their backs in no time flat. :eek:

Pfft.
Done that. Personally I couldn't taste or smell what the fuss was about.
Smelt worse things and tasted plenty better… ;)

However, who'll join me with one of these?
:D

Love these! Staple dish to go along when eating rojak or porridge. The longer cured, the better.
 
Here's my humble list:

1) ran with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain with my two brothers
2) walked across the volcanic lava fields in Iceland near Myvatn (where the ground literally bubbles and smokes under your feet)
3) driven the northen Canadian ice roads to Tuktoyaktuk (on the shore of the Arctic Ocean, a full day north of the Arctic Circle and only reachable at certain times of the year except by plane) - this was the tip of a six day non-stop rotating-driver expedition, where we flew to Edmonton, headed north through the Rockies and up Yukon/NWT to the very top of the continent, then turned around and came home...again with my brothers
4) climbed up the center shaft of the Great Pyramid of Giza
5) walked the Great Wall (Mutianyu section), including the unrestored bits not open to the public

Laughingly, I did three of these within a month of each other - man, I have a patient wife (and apparently crazy brothers) :p

And yes, bradl- I'll smack Jeff for not offing GWB. :)
