1. Has eaten alligator - Tampa, Fla
2. Has studied four foreign languages - Can’t speak any of them, but I studied them (apparently not very well)

4. Has never snow skied - And never will.
5. Is a published photographer – Tourism magazine in foreign country
6. Flown on Air Force One

Well, I thought they were all true.
It seems I’ve vastly overestimated your capabilities. =:>)
Looks like you had fun along the way,
maintained a righteous loyalty and
left with humor in tact.
Guheepus, you must have been a real pain
in the ass for a lot of people.
