Accepted that life has no inherent meaning and no external sky monster.

I was born and raised by non-believers. Nothing I did, but, it was my experience. I don't think that was too common in the 1960s.

Served in the Israeli Junior Army at 16 called Gadna

I got lost while climbing Popocapetl in Mexico.

Been a member of a Mennonite church

Bragging allowed or keep it humble? ????

Read the entire bible and actually thought about what was in it. It's why I'm an atheist and my family is becoming fanatics.

I found a job doing something I really enjoy.

I have been acquainted with two serial killers and lived to tell about it. The first is Ted Bundy. He lived in my neighborhood in Tacoma, WA, was in my class all through junior high and high school. He was our paper boy. Our schools had a High Achievement Program. We were both in it and had classes together. In HA English when we were junior or seniors, I recall he sat next to me on my left. He was one of those tall, lanky boys that leaned back in his desk chair and spread his legs out. It made him look more aloof. He didnt talk much in class. He signed my friend Christine's yearbook just before we graduated, and wrote something really bizarre. Something like we will now eat the monster or it will eat us. She lived across the street from Ted, had even asked him to a tolo once but he said no. He respected her in his own way.

The 2nd serial killer I have known is Andrew Cunanin who killed Versace. As a young mother, I was only a frequent customer in the Rite Aide Drug Store where Andrew had been an Assistant Manager just before going on a cross country killing spree. I remember seeing his name on his badge. He seemed to me to be hyper, moving around quicker than normal. I went to Mass and the priest announced that Andrew's mother had called. She wanted the whole congregation to prayer for her son. And pray that he turn himself in.

Both of these men met their demise in Florida.

That's a long list but streaking up my high street at midnight was one

I’ve been in the caldera of an active volcano, worked at NASA Johnson space center, found a worm in a Wendy’s hamburger, probably some other stuff, too.

Partied with rock stars, was a #1-rated DJ, experienced unconditional love.

Yes, I have been over the Gliedecke bridge (in the movie "Brodge of Spies" with Tom Hanks. It was the dividing line between West erlin and East Germany from 1945 and 1989.I still remember the Russian sentries with submachine guns and the sentry tower with machine guns.

Gone deeper than 1000 feet in a submarine.

I started my own business and sold it 35 years later.

I got to heckle Ryan Seacrest when I was on American Idol!!

Standup comedy.

Got to sit in a bar and pick the brain of an MIT Vala Victorian.

I've been purpously set on fire. I was well-prepared and right by a pond just in case things went sideways.

Be alone and like it.

I hit a semi totalling my car, and did not have any serious injuries.

I gave a baby chimp a horsie ride and drew blood from a tiger when I was in high school.

Caught a shiny Pokémon.

I've been sectioned

Spent twelve nights with a Russian girl and didn't have sex. (Technically something I didn't do, but still.)
