Ten Things
Feb. 23rd, 2005 10:41 amTen things I've done that you may not have:
1. Been interviewed by the local paper on the occasion of the proof of Fermat's Last.
2. Lived through a hurricane - in the state of Washington.
3. Spent the night sleeping on the grass in front of the train station in Naples, Italy.
4. Given a subcutaneous drip to a sick dog.
5. Hiked sixty-plus miles in eight days in the Sierra.
6. Belly-crawled through a narrow muddy passageway in a cave in Tennessee.
7. Read Purgatorio and Paradiso (instead of stopping with Inferno).
8. Sat on the reef that encloses Pearl Harbor.
9. Voted for Barry Commoner for President. (It was 1980, and I was disgusted with everybody.)
10. Represented my high school in a wrestling match and in a Math Fair.
