Let's see... some odd stuff. I did psychological testing on the first monkey into outer space at the Primate Lab at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. She was the only female Rhesus monkey that didn't pick out and eat the eyes of the rat they gave her to see if she would accept it as her baby. All the other Mothers did. Don't you just love government funded research?

I was navigator on an iceberg when I was working on an ice station in the arctic. I have a certificate ackowledging that I crossed the Arctic Circle, slew the lemus, partook of Quack, and shall henceforth be known as Jerry Sikumme Arcticus.

John Lennon sent me the double album he and Yoko Ono recorded, before it was released to the public, and Ronald Reagan wrote me a nice thank you note for my first album on Folk Legacy because it included a song about his home town, Dixon, Illinois.

I also have most likely posted the last message on this thread before someone starts a new one, and no one will ever read this....:-)
