Well, it’s hard to pick three but heres a few

When I was 14 I lived with a couple of wild 19 yr olds, they were like my brothers..One of them had a late sixties cougar and we would race cars up at Shasta Dam, in northern Ca..the Dam is ½ mile high and ¾ mile long..We would regularly hit 120 as we neared the far side of the dam where my friend would hit the brakes and put the car into repeated spins, sometimes slamming in to curbs, sometimes perfect. We once went four times round..He always won the races and I thought this was all very exciting..

Next, my first lead rock climb, It was a 5.8 crack, 180 ft or so up to a walk off..I made it fine up the actual climb, I was great, but when I got to the area where I should walk up and tie off to belay my partner up I froze..It really wasn’t that dangerous but I was profoundly aware of the fact that if I slipped I would be slamming into the rock 50 ft or so below me..It took me half an hour to get up the nerve to walk off the top of the climb..ridiculous after having led the whole thing, but anyway, I finally made it and so did my partner…scared me off from lead climbing and any climb where the walk off is so exposed…urgh….

I took a good friend for a flight in a sailplane once. The young kid who was flying was amazing and did all sorts of cool acrobatics…the final moments of the flight were something to remember…He dropped the sail plane into a dive that ended in a wing bending pull up just before we landed..Oh yeah, it was very exciting……

Then there’s the Thelma and Louise mad dash for the Mexican border…drove 110 plus for a hundred miles or so to make the boarder by closing at midnight..I could say more but it might incriminate me…

Yup, I was 19 and it was a flight with one of the Thunderbirds, the Air Force's counterpart to the Blue Angels. I think my mother still has the pic of me standing alongside the jet with the pilot, I was grinning like a dog shitting peach pits.
It was incredible. I was too excited to throw up.
Hmmmm, I should add my first sailplane flight to that list too.

hmm, let's see.

1. Getting up in front of a group of teenagers who don't want to be there and teaching them and showing them that there actually is a point to their being in school.

2. Being the first person in my family to go to and finish university. I am proud to say that the whole family was actually united for once for this thing.

3. Realising just how important life is and that I should stick it out. That's the day I came to understand that suicide is definitely not in my future.

I will elaborate on my tiger petting story cause it's rather neat.

My friend Gary called me up one night and said "You must come down to the Cobalt Hotel and see this stripper, Jane Jones. She does more performance art than stripping"

So my boyfriend and I headed down to see Jane's show.

Some places Jane is allowed to perform with her tiger but in this province she is not. So she did a bunch of stuff, she was okay but no big whoop.

Afterwards, we went out back to her trailer. Gary and his roommate Christine had met her before and so he took us out to meet her. About 6 or 7 of us crammed into her trailer, with the giant tiger which was completely FREE.

Have you ever had a tiger butt you in the ass with it's head? No, I didn't think so. I DID. The trailer had stairs in it, and on my way down the stairs I felt someone pushing me. I reached out to brace myself and with the other hand pushed whatever was behind me, it turned out to be the tiger's head. We hung out in the trailer for while but it was awfully cramped and the tiger was growling...it was kind of scary, I mean at any given time I was within 4-6 feet from it. I thought, this tiger could kill us all in minutes.

We finally left the trailer and went out to the back. There the tiger was put on a standard chain, where it walked around and peed and eventually laid down. I asked Jane if I could pet it, she said sure, and I went up to the tiger and stroked its head and ears. It was VERY SCARY. It had HUGE eyes and it growled, I asked Jane if I should stop and she said it was happy growling. So I crouched there for about 5 minutes petting the tiger. It was quite exciting.

She was there for weeks performing and I remember driving over the viaduct that ran right past it and I thought no one knows there's a tiger just hanging out down there. It was really cool to know that there was, and I knew just when and where to look to catch a glimpse of it.

It was an amazing creature.
