    I'm only 36 and I have 10 children, 4 great granchildren and 2 more grandchildren on the way :wink:

    4 great grandchildren? o_o
    or do you mean 4 great (describing them) grandchildren?

    That's what I assumed, too.
  • I once sat with HRH Prince Edward in a gazebo by a lake in the middle of a forest near Kelowna BC and chatted with him and just 1 other person for about 45 mins.

    or

    I Was once shot in the back with an arrow that accidentally flew threw a knot hole in a fence (nothing serious as much as surprising)

    Every time I watch Star Wars, I fall more in love with Han Solo.


    I'm a huge geek, but almost no one knows that.

    I was a congressional page.
    I was security for a senatorial candidate.
    I had a bad experience in the Bermuda Triangle.
    I hate blue cheese!!!!

    When I was three, I was playing on a tombstone and it fell on me. I broke both legs and had casts up to my hips. I never used to crutches the hospital gave me and walked around like a zombie! My parents would let me play outside with nothing on but those casts! I still have the pictures to prove it after 32 years!!! I always wondered what people driving by must have thought...hmmm???

    I have two children and I am afraid they will "settle" like I did....I gave up on my dreams, goals, aspiration and eventually myself. I am wanting to get back to "my old self" again, and one day I will!!!

    I'm a lawyer who has worked as a stand-up comic, had speaking roles in two movies and am now opening up a practice as a certified hypnotist. I love the Detroit Tigers and went to a fantasy camp. I write poetry when I'm in love.

    I once met the group Van Halen & they all signed the back of my jacket except David Lee Roth (he doesn't do autograghs).
    I have only used the F word once in my life and that was when I messed up saying the name of the resteraunt Fudruckers.:laugh:

    I am a complete and total Andy Griffith Show encyclopedia. I can recite the lines right along with the characters on any given episode. I have been into the show since I was a very young child.

    My party trick is putting a condom on over my head. One time I used a cheap condom, it split down the middle and the ends rolled up like a set of roller blinds, right around my neck, almost throttling me in the process.

    I was widowed at 26.
    I have five kids and want more
    I am 18 1/2 years older than my sister (same parents and she was planned) and people think she is my daughter when she is with me and my family.
    I am deathly afraid of heights, and I am afraid of spiders when they are in my home, but can tolerate them in the wild (weird I know)
    I developed an anaphalactic allergy to coconut while pregnant with my fifth child.

    okay, okay...one more:

    I used to have a pet iguana, named Rif Raf (after the butler on the rocky horror picture show)

    I cannot stand the sight of Jim Carrey, therefore I will not watch any of his movies.

    My mother used to identify Jim Carrey as the rubber faced as_h__le. She couldn't remember his name she was 82

    I'm adopted too. I am going to assume that you meant you HAVE a parrot and 2 macaws...
