I made the 41st post in this thread.
I’m pleading the Fifth.
I bought Zingers.
I husked corn today. Four ears.
This week, I have begun the weaning process for eight calves, unloaded one and half wagons of hay by myself, and assisted in the stringing of an electric fence. Today, I watched my dad cut down an enormous oak tree on the other side of the embankment for the new cattle barn, and thought the tree landed on him, because he didn’t emerge immediately, which caused me to cross myself for the first time in freaking years. The tree didn’t land on him, but it did land on a fence. All in a day’s work in McKnittington Hollow.
I named the four dump trucks that park behind John’s Pub. Two are named Tar (Tar 1 and Tar 2), one is named Gamma, and the fourth one doesn’t have a name yet because I’ve only seen him around a couple times and haven’t gotten the letters off his door yet.
I talked to some guy in FL via a satellite in LEO from the roof of my house using a 5W handheld radio.
Got paid it SCUBA dive in the name of science.
I got a box full of autographed Ed McBain mysteries in foreign language translations.
Going out on a limb, but:
Planned a drag show fundraiser.
-
I announced on the radio today that my darkest music secret is that I attended a Cher concert.
-
I had a date with a girl I hadn’t seen in 7 years (it went well, thanks for asking).
-
I completed a Sudoku on the “fiendish” level without guessing - pure logic baby.
Oooh! Dragsters!

I took and passed two FEMA-administered ICS tests as part of my on-going training as an EMT.
That means when the world ends, I can have command of the situation.
I transposed and made chord charts for 4 songs my band is learning
I dropped off 2 bags of clothes, 2 bags of books and some miscellaneous other houshold items at the Goodwill Attended Donation station at the grocery store.
Actually, have you ever heard of “drag racing”? It’s a sort of humorous/charity event where drag queens run a foot race (in full regalia, including heels, natch.)
Copy out local election results from a folder in the City Clerk’s office for my personal usage.
I brewed (well, am in the process of brewing) a beer to enter in two homebrewing competitions.
I experimented with different ways to paint ocean waves.
I searched the internet for images so I can get a tattoo in a dead, fictional language.
I scanned 73year old photos from my grandparents honeymoon. Wow. I didn’t know they could actually smile. (I loved my grandparents, but think stoic Lutherans, and that was them.)
Heh! I replaced my windshield wipers yesterday. That one doesn’t qualify, since two Dopers did it.
Didn’t shoot any pictures, though. Of tissues or anything else.
Held 29.5 grams of methamphetamine and 7 grams of cocaine while the head of the local police narcotics task force looked on.
Threw a medicine ball at a gynecologist.
Choked an airman.
Ate some “Smarties.”
I injected a female B6 Rag mouse with spleen and lymph node cells from a regular B6 mouse so the B6 Rag can have an immune system. Then I set her up on a “date” with a very healthy male CD80/86 mouse. The goal is lots of baby mice.
Hey, its trivial to me.
