When I was two, I stuck a hairpin in an electric socket that didn't have a childproof cap on it. I'm dead.

OK, here's one. Anybody else do this?

When city workers would lay fresh tar on street cracks, us kids would take sharpened popsicle sticks and scrape up some of this still slightly warm goo and chew it. It was sort of like poor mans Blackjack gum. We were told by our parents that the tar would also clean your teeth.

Gosh, when I count up all the times I fell down concrete stairs, tried to climb a solid wood bookcase (that fell over on me), fell of the top bunk on my head, ran headfirst into a parked Buick while peddling my tricycle, and pulled the iron down onto my head, I should definitely be dead.

And this was before I was 3.

Hmm. That could explain alot... Mom?

I've got that one beat. I used Dad's car key.
Needless to say, it didn't start the house up for a drive.

Also, Kerry didn't go to MY funeral!
