15, with a lot of repeats.
How come no points for jail time? That has to be worth a few?
Barroom brawls?
Military service?
War time too?
Living on a Motorcycle?
I know I earned a few more LOL

I can think of too many ways for points here.... but I'd better not list them.
However, I have changed my wicked ways.
I once stole an Army jeep when in the Army. (It belonged to the officer of the day, which ought to be good for a bonus!

I know a couple of guys who did Navy sea cruises on a carrier.
Even though we flew on Hueys in Nam, and did the insertions and such, I think living on a boat was a very tough job.
Lots of times we inserted SEAL teams.
They lived on a barge dwn the River from us at Vinh Long.
That had to be tough and ripe.
Swimming in the river for a shower?
Yea.
No thanx
That has to be worth a few exyra points?

Product of the 60's I suppose

No tats, never arrested, no time in Jail.
Mom would be proud of me, I am.

Some of those are questionable- been on a cruise?

That did give me a double though- I was drunk on a cruise, twas a smaller ship, 212 passengers so it could push up into the lovely fjords of Alaska amongst the ice bergs and seals. Sorta bad ass to wake up look out the window and see icebergs.

I'd add "Ever ridden a Motorcycle more than 300 miles in a day?"
That's bad ass AND sore ass! Another double!









Glacial ice does indeed keep beer "bloody cold"

^^^^^^

Thanks for reminding me: for my sister's 50th birthday, my mother paid for herself, sister, and sister's kid to go on a cruise to Alaska.

For my 50th, my mother gave me 50 one dollar bills. Hardly the same, but I did pretty well on the OP test.

After Nam, coast to coast, I did 800 miles and change one day, On an Iron Head Sporster!
Young and dumb!
Now my goal is 500 two up,
We usually do about 480
Two is way harder.
There is a patch one can get, called "Iron Butt patch."
I am not sure of the miles required and how to prove it..... not that interested, I guess
