Made it to some of the early Newport festivals
hitch-hiked across the US once, drove across 6 times
had sex in the middle of a snow storm in the middle of Government Center
Slept in the same room as Amos, but I didn't peep, I did peep at Big Mick though, he wasn't big
been pawed on the arm by a bear
broken a heel, an ankle, a wrist, a leg & a nose, a few times
sailed across the Pacific
had been considered for a contracted hit by crupt union officals
was under FBI protection
crossed paths with a mess of black cats
stowed away of a ship full of candy bound for South Africa, got chased off before we could finish eating it all & before it left the dock
Snuck into Canada barefoot through the woods, then promtly got thrown out
ate squirrel & rabbit, not alive though, killed them first
been rescued at sea, well, towed in, against our wills
sailed as part of an all naked crew with 3 other   guys ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,& 19 women
seen the Northern Lights, seen the green flash of the sun sinking in the water's horizon, seen a moonbow over a canyon on Maui, seen a 3 day Kona storm blow out to sea, bounce off an island & come right back again
rode a cement bucket from a crane down 7 stories, rode a conveyor belt back up 3 stories
climbed to the top of a tall ship's mast but didn't walk out on the yard
dove with tanks below 76', free dove over 40'
woke up to the sounds of porpoise, gone to sleep to the sounds of gun fire
hiked inside a volcano & under a waterfall but didn't walk 20 miles of barbed wire & didn't use a cobra snake for a neck-tie but was close enough to be biten by a conga eel
had my skin turn completely yellow


Amos, we should swap stories,,,,,,,,,,,,,but not spit
there's still a few things I haven't tried & a couple things I have but wished I hadn't but I have lived & I think I went mad once
