3 :o My aunt wouldn't buy me what I wanted at a store, so I just took it and walked home by myself. My aunt thought I was lost or kidnapped and called the police. Meanwhile, I just went home alone and acted like there was nothing wrong. Boy, when my mother got home, the sh*t really hit the fan. She made me return that item and apologize to the store, the police, my aunt, and anyone else she could think of. I never wanted to steal after that.

How old were you when you drank a little too much for the first time?
We are a nation that has a government -- not the other way around. And this makes us special among the nations of the earth. Our government has no power except that granted to it by the people. It is time to check and reverse the growth of government, which shows signs of having grown beyond the consent of the governed.
Ronald Reagan

�In questions of power, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.� - Thomas Jefferson

I was 18. It was at a party after finishing A level exams. I remember lying on the lawn watching everything spinning.

Probably like 5 or so - I really don't remember.  The annual Kansas State Fair is held in the town 10 miles away from where I grew up, and so my family went every year.

I was maybe around 21 the first time I had a fender bender.  I was about 36 when I had a big wreck that totaled my car (not my fault though).

I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

No set age--it is an ongoing organic experience and has more to do with spirituality than doctrine.
