Tell us a story, wether it be amazing, funny, or... just something you want to share.

But the thing is, it has to be about you and non fictional!

Well I'm sitting here typing on this message board. I'm rubbing my tooth with my tongue, and wondering what kind of story to tell yas....

I think some critter was in my backyard last night. Stupid thing shredded up some plastic bags that have bark in it.  Then I smelt a skunk, and went out front to see one ran over two houses away. :P

Here's a real near tragic story:

Back in 2003, I was hit in the head by ice that fell off the side of a shopping mall.  It split my head open, and I was rushed to emergency where I was given 8 stitches.  The doctor told me that because I was wearing a baseball cap, it cushioned the blow, and had I not been wearing the hat, there's no telling what fatal damage the ice might have done  :o

Ever since then, whenever I hear ice cracking in the winter, I get scared sh!tless  :\'(

Wow... that's kinda like what happened to me not long ago...

I was in the stock room at work, and I had to get this tray of beer from the bottom of a pile. I took everything down and piled it up elsewhere to get to the beer, then I put the beer on the top of another pile whilst I shifted the original pile out of the way. When I was pushing, a case of 4pack 1 pint beer cans fell onto my head. No concusions or stitches, but it bloody hurt! Had my head not been made of wood, god knows what damage it would've done

Here's a story ...

A few years ago, I was at Future Shop buying a CD.  Total price of the CD w/ Tax included was $19.54 and I was paying with a $20 Bill.  Just as I was about to hand the bill to the sales clerk, one of her co-workers came over to scan something over the de-magnetizer thingy, and I guess that must of confused her because when I handed her the $20 Bill, she gave me back $19.54 in change  :o

The nice guy that I am, I didn't want to point out her obvious mistake and make her feel stupid, so I left the store having paid my 46 cents for the CD and didn't look back MWAHAHA  ;D

Gasps! You're ALL eeeeeeeeeeevil!  :P :D

I was watching this comedian on the telly once (he was an american), and he was talking about the time he'd came over to visit England. He said he went into MacDonalds and spent around a fiver, and he handed the waitress the money and told her to keep the change. He then wondered why the waitress looked bewildered... until he realised he'd given her a £50 note!  ;D

At my sister's birthday party on Saturday, my brother brought along his computer (well, my brother never goes ANYWHERE without his computer) and he had a whole bunch of our old family home movies on it-including ones of our old dance recitals. He decided to plug it into the t.v. that was hanging on the wall in the hall where the party was being held. I'm sure my sister's friends were wondering what that was all about and all of us didn't know whether to laugh about it or be embarrassed. At one point, I hear one of my sisters calling my name. I looked up to see ALL 4 of my sisters out on the dance floor doing a dance that we used to do all the time. I jumped up to join them. It had been a long time since I have done that dance and I am sure that I totally messed up but it didn't matter. We were all together dancing (even though my brother didn't join us). I guess we were showing my sister's friends that we could all still "do it." And then they played the song "We are Family" which we all danced to again. With as many "issues" that my family has, it was nice that we put them all aside for one day and just enjoyed being a family. I know this isn't an amazing story (well, it is if you know my family-and the fact that we were all together is also amazing too) or amusing or anything like that. It just made me feel so good and I wanted to share it.

Last week, I bought a frozen turkey for Thanksgiving dinner, at the store at work, and put in the freezer in the meat section for later. When I left the store, I took the turkey only to discover that:

A) it had no receipt

B) it was a turkey someone returned earlier that day.

I got the turkey that I paid back, after explaining to the cash office what happend and ended up getting $16.00 back in return!  ;D  ::)

...the trumpets were having a sectional, under the trees by the auditorium as usual.  We were about to start playing "Ninkou Latora," when Luke suggested that we do the visuals "just for fun."  So then I said (sarcastically) "Why don't we do the show, 'just for fun'?"  And everyone agreed.  So we went out onto the field and ran through "Atmadja."
