  4. Man was that freak show bad, but I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Was the human blockhead guy with the mustache drunk when you saw him? He definitely seemed to be a tad inebriated when Steph and I were there.

  5. When I was 8 or 9 I held a baby bengal tiger at a fair. And then I told EVERYBODY. I seriously would NOT shut up about it at school for at least a solid year. That will be you now.
