My life
A few nights ago I was chatting with Ms. Lost on IM and I mentioned that I had an idea for a post that could be used as a meme.
Basically, list years from 2007 to earliest you can remember and next to each year write down what you remember most from that year. But keep it as limited as possible, not a life story. People may ask you for more info on something whih gives you subject for future posts. Here's what I mean. Pls join in. Consider yourselves "tagged". (How do I do that btw?!)

Ok, if this works I will be amazed!! Me and technical stuff don't always go hand in hand. Not a bad list of achievements. A little work, lots of beer and even more fun, fron the age of 16. Good boy!!!
YAY now I have something to post about
Ooooohhhh!! I am SO doing this too... Only, my memory is a tad fuzzy in parts. Interesting though!
I can't even remember what I did yesterday ... I'll have to think about it.
Threesomes! You naughty monkey!
Why did you get suspended? What were you doing? (first serious g/f!)
What happened to the tarantula and was it anything to do with the trike?
Me finks you've left a few fings out mate. Can any of your readers hazard a guess as to what things you've omitted to tell them about?
pud: Welcome my lil sis! Thanks for the compliment but you knew all that anyway?
Just Me: I'm almost a public service. Or pubic. Whatever.
Two cents: You did too! You're playing catch up me thinks. Always knew you were an innocent really...
Mr V: Try harder! Yours would be funny.
Rachael: You don't know the half of it mate
W.Aussie: G'day chick! How's you? The suspension was a set up. I was framed. I didn't really sell weapons in school. What exactly is a crossbow? And this 'sling shot' that was referred to? Colour me confused. As for the air pistol - well, as if.
W.Aussie: The tarantula was fine but the dog got lost. So we used the trike to hunt it down. It's too long a story, have to be the subject of another post. Was fucking funny though. You were in the bar next door when it all started. Now you know why I never came home that night ;)
