Last week I posted things I have never done and probably won’t ever. This week it’s things I have done and might do some more.
I have:
**Served as an election judge. (everyone should do this at least once to understand and respect the voting process)
**Been to a Super Bowl. (In 2000 down in Atlanta, a wild time for sure)
**D.J.’d countless dances including one for a crowd of over a thousand college kids.
**Held the infant baby of one of my students.
**Kissed famous women. (Just ‘hello-goodbye’ smooches with Tanya Tucker, Wynonna Judd and former SNL star Nora Dunn)
**Sung karaoke. (“Lawyers, Guns & Money” being my go-to tune)
I have:
**Shaken the hand of two sitting U.S. Presidents. (Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush)
**Flown in a helicopter. (Twice, and that was enough)
** Won Elmhurst’s Name the Park contest in 1974 and “Pioneer Park” was the result. (That park still thrives)
**Written loads of parody songs/music videos with my pal Al Flash for the Channel 9 Morning News. (That will never stop)
**Worked for my childhood idol Larry Lujack and continued to be his friend until the day he died. (I still miss him)
**Delivered three eulogies. (For my dad, mom and sister. I’m the sole survivor)
**Given a woman the “It’s not you, it’s me” line.
