I am starting to suspect that I am the only one here who ever smoked crack.

It wasn't called that yet, though. Only did it three or four times. The last time I thought I was going to die, so that was it.

A few months later, there was all this stuff in the paper about this new form of smokable cocaine called "crack".

Good to know this wasn't a common, everyday experience for most people!

- kissed a girl romantically
- played a video game other than "Pong".

And none of these things are on my bucket list.
Coupla those are pretty funny! I relate to "worn a pants suit" LOL. Never had the body for that and the first ladies and the queen put me off them anyway.

I seem to recall playing "Pong" at a Marie Callendar's back when it first came out, while waiting for a table. That was enough on the video game front.

Agree about Madonna. Never heard a Celine Dion song, either. I think she just "stays in Vegas", lol.

I've never read Moby Dick.

I've never had a plantar's wart.

I have never punched another human being. (But I've wanted to.)
These answers are a HOOT.

Been to Spain but will never go back. Got punched twice---once by a drunk redneck woman who wanted to ride my horse. Once by my ex (why he's my ex). I've never struck anyone.

Moby Dick is too sad, wish I never read it. Same with "The Red Pony".

Can't imagine having a brother, either!
