How badass are we?
I originally posted this on the shorts thread...but then thought, might be worthy of it's own. Remember, count the ones you HAVEN'T done. Four for me.

A couple of 'em I wear like a badge of honor: Never been on a cruise, never been arrested.
(That list isn't all that badass; badass is diving into a piranha infested river wearing only undershorts and clenching a big knife in your teeth, fighting an enemy to the death on a bridge railing 300 feet above a river, or driving the old Mulsanne straight in the pitch dark at night in the pouring rain in a 917 Porsche with only a couple of Cibie lights illuminate the road ahead)

I got an 8. But... been on a cruise? A no for that should count toward bad-assness.

4 but if I count the 3 day long ship ride from Mogadishu to Kenya then it is a 3.
My celeb is Larry Gatlin of Gatlin Bros fame. He did a USO tour to Mogadishu and I got him to climb up on to the top of the tower where I was working an observation post. Super nice guy.
