I might qualify for the most unused frequent flier miles.
But I doubt it.

I can say all of the president’s last names in order in one breath (about 11 seconds).
Don’t know if that is special or not, but it seems kinda cool to the kids in my class!

I used to have that. I was a shut in for all but an hour or two a week. Damn work! I doubt I’ll ever be able to play 38 straight of final fantasy again. Sigh.
But now I have the World’s Oldest Answering Machine Greeting. It’s 10.5 years old. Ok maybe not the world’s oldest but I doubt any dopers can beat it.

Once I played a Monopoly game that lasted from 10 in the morning until Midnight with only an hour break in between, so I’d be in it for longest monopoly game ever.

I’ve got 8 beers on you, but unfortunately, am far from alone in being able to claim that.

I attempted to race a Chevy Vega at a local short track many years ago. I blew up 11 engines before dumping the car. That took only a bit over 3 months of a 7 month season to accomplish that feat.

Greatest number of pages read in a calendar year. So far, I’m at something like 35,000 (I haven’t updated my log in a while).

Hey, I \*\*am \*\*in it!
Well, sort of. My pumpkin was in the Keene NH pumpkin carving contest when they first set the world record for most carved pumpkins. They didn’t bother to list all our names though.
