    I fell off a moving car hitting my head in the bumper and pavement fracturing my skull ear to ear across the back of my head. I landed in the driveway of the ambulance building. 9 days in intensive care unit. Specialist told me I was supposed to be dead with the brain swelling. I walked away with just some short term memory loss. The only other bad things was I had to turn down an offer to play semi pro football just in case

    Sorry about your injury and the loss of opportunity! On the other hand, glad the IHS has not used your experienece to agitate for safety belts on car hoods and roofs!

    My dad taught me how to drive when I was 9 (I was very tall for my age).
    Mom did not know. 🤭

    This may have been why I didn’t get in very much trouble when I snuck out the car at 14, in Brazil and wrecked it. 🤔

    I make them once a year and freeze them for whenever I have company over. I love them as well.

    I always wanted to play guitar or drums.

    Started learning guitar basics in college from a buddy who played in a band for years and was trying to get through college. Never learned to read music. Still can't to this day. I mean, I know basics (notes, etc) but otherwise clueless. Can pick it up by ear though.

    One day a couple of years ago, we needed someone on drums for a group. I went to a place that had a rig and taught myself basics by ear practicing for a short time.

    I love to sing and play. I'm not anybody's pro on percussion but I can make some decent music.

    Its time to get the band back together 😎🤘❤...thats awesome Chris!!

    I actually picked my little sister’s first name.
    According to my mom, Dad wanted to name her something else but was willing to compromise with his three year old and have the name I wanted be her middle name. She says I told them that they could name her whatever they wanted but I was still going to call her _________.
    __________ ended being her first name and Dad’s name pick is her middle name.
