False, but I don’t think I’ve made even a half dozen over a lifetime.

TNP has an urn somewhere in their home

True, several, but none are very valuable and none, to my knowledge, are Grecian.

TNP has a bird feeder in their yard.

False. Had to take them down on accounta the dropped seeds were attracting rats.

TNP has changed a tire within the past year.

True, I got that on my birthday as a present and zipped around Long Beach Island, NJ. It’s weird fun, and stupid looking all at once.

TNP has been to LBI, NJ.

</div>

I feel I asked too narrow a question. I’ll just say Long Beach Island is exactly it’s name, a long, skinny, beach, island, just off the Jersey Coast at the Shore. I’ve been there.

Unorthodox but I need uplift, I’ve just started treating with chemo. Cautiously optimistic but just starting.

TNP is a cancer survivor.

No, never had cancer and, knock wood, I never will.

TNP knocks on wood for luck at least weekly.

</div>

So much for uplift but it’s OK, met some other survivors. You better believe I knock wood though I pray ( and it’s a bit pagan for my spouse).

Ok let’s take it down a bit. TNP has owned a rabbit’s foot.

Yep, still do. It’s in a desk drawer right now and doesn’t look too bad for being about fifty years old.

TNP has found at least one four-leaf clover.

</div>

Only once, surprisingly, and only sort of, because it wasn’t a convertible but an unroofed Jeep through the Negev in Israel, a glorious and memorable trip.

TNP has made love in a car.

</div>

True. There is one on my kitchen counter right now. It’s so easy to make and delicious too! I make them often and sometimes use mango or peach slices in place of the pineapple for a change of pace.

TNP uses an electric razor.
