tuff

A friend recently wrote to me:
"what doesn't kill you makes you stonger".

Here's a list of things that have tried to kill me:

*severe croup
*asthma
*hundsknubel ski hill in Soerenberg. it broke my face.
*a brown recluse/gangrene
*driving while narcoleptic
*my first canadian roomate

Sometimes I wish I still had a ringer T-shirt I gave to Angela the first time I left Knoxville. I could use the reminder sometimes. I should add it to the list of shirts I need to screen/make.

It simply said "TUFF" in blue fuzzy letters.

Oh yea, did you notice one of those cows is a Nazi?

This last post made me giggle. Maybe because I'm such a coffin kid. It's inspired me to write a list too.
Things that have tried to kill me:

*Childhood diseases
*My grandmother's dog
*The neighbourhood bully rode over me on his bike
when I was about 5yrs old
*In 1991 a speeding Honda went through a stop street and hit me, I struck the front of the vehicle and landed on my head on the concrete without a helmet.
*In 1988 a drunken driver hit the family Peugeot station-wagon and I was sitting on the front seat which means I ended up in hospital with critical injuries.
*My father. I'm pretty sure I remember my father wanting to kill me between my teenage years and my 20's.
*In 2005 I was the passenger in a new Austin Mini which did not stop at a red light and we hit head first on to the back of a Volkswagen. I was sitting on the front seat again.
*My self.
