Well, I've Never....
 

I was speaking with someone the other day and I told them that I had NEVER been Trick or Treating. I'm sure many have done this before. So I thought about us formulating a list of things that are typically ORDINARY that we/others have never done...

I've Never...
1. Been Trick or Treating
2. Seen Janet Jackson in Concert
3. Seen the movie ET
4. Eaten exotic dishes
5. had a permanent tattoo (only Cracker jack tattoos)
6. taken any illegal drugs
7. drank Mountain Dew, ovaltine, chocolate milk
8. engaged in homosexual activities
9. failed a class
10. had braces
11. been arrested
12. visited Cali, the Midwest, or New York
13. worried myself with what one does or does not do

That's all I can think of now.

In addtion

Re: UH-OHHHHH
 

I knew that was coming!!! LOL :D

The thought of eating an oinker has never appealed to me... When I was knee-high to a grasshoppa, my gramma was cooking some chitlins and I begged her not to make eat them. I just didn't want to, they smelled like crap. I questioned her about what was in the pot, and she - being a VERY frank woman, said "the intestines of a pig... just like you have, intestines. You know where the poo-poo comes out?" AAK!!
She told me I didn't have to eat them, but that what I didn't know was that those breakfast sausages I so loved were the from the same animal.
I never ate pork again. There is another slight trauma that happened to me, leading up to this incident, involving a half-cooked hamhock... But I won't go into that.
My mother allowed me my refusal b/c she rarely cooked it and didn't like to feed us a lot of meat (my mom's somewhat of a health 'freak' if you will). So 'Vella doesn't eat pork. Not b/c it tastes bad, I just don't want to. No pepperoni, no salami, no bologna, no souse (and I understand I used to love souse as a little one) :D
Now I am afraid to eat it TBH ... lol
I KNOW I will get indigestion.


Alright folks, carry-on

Some of what's left!!
 

Seems like there isn't much left. Some of you have had sheltered lifes out there. Start living a little. After all are days are not promised.

That's about it for now.

Re: Some of what's left!!
