2. I fought forest fires and became a 20 person crew leader for 4 years.
3. I tried to derail a train as a kid with plywood – ‘epic failure’! That would be considered a good failure…
4. My Dad gave me my first car when I turned 13 – Coupe Deville Cadillac – ‘No License’, but I was the man!-(boy)
5. I screwed up the first song I ever sang in high school and blamed it on my piano teacher. Pretty obvious who actually forgot the words!
6. I sang in a Taiwanese Band when I lived in Taipei, Taiwan
7. I met my wife singing in a Karaoke Contest on her 21st birthday. I won – because I was damn good –sort of
8. I will have been married 20 years, as of March, 2014… Just shoot me and get it over with!!! Haha
9. I used to be a runner and I THOUGHT I enjoyed it! Now look at me!!! What the heck happened?!!!
