Heard that quote recently and thought right away I knew where to go to get some good, juicy stories.

Let's hear 'em!
“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    Salad over soup is a horrible decision and yet a story nobody tells
    None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe that they are free.

    Bad vacations make the best memories.
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    Pissing in a ditch and ending up with a bloody gash is both. But with witnesses? It's cubed.

    Haha! Yes, for sure. Bonus points!

    An oldie: Skiing down advanced slopes on iced-over snow --> hitting patch of ice --> flipping through air and having ski pole lodge upside down just as I'm coming down on it with my face 1/2 from my left eye. Bad decision, good story (and luck!)
