Cool Things You've Done

[Twist]

First post in a while. Figured I would start a thread to get back in the hang of things. Here goes:

What are the cool/interesting/impressive things you've done? Here is my list:

I've met President Jimmy Carter and shaken hands with him.
I've been on Air Force One.
I've been to England, Scotland and Mexico (okay, not THAT impressive).
I've seen President Bill Clinton speak in New Orleans (1996 campaign).
I've eaten lunch with the Mayor of Birmingham, AL (a city of 1 million people).

There's more I know. But you guys post yours!

I've run into Robin Williams. (yes actually smacked into him)

Besides that, I have no interesting celebrity stuff, but:

I can solve Rubik's Cubes blind. (if they have been prepared with shapes instead of colors)

I can clasp my hands behind my back, and flip them over my head without unclasping them. Handy if I have handcuffs on.

:hehehe: It was at Comdex (a computer/technology show) and I wasn't looking where I was going and smacked right into him. He was a really nice guy, though shorter than he looks onscreen (about 5'5"). Oh, and he has a really big head.
