Oh, okay. You win.
Ten things I've done that you probably haven't:
Been in a food fight with a Korean mafioso
Successfully taught the indicative, imperative, and subjunctive moods to junior high school students
Given a paper at the Parliament of the World's Religions
Been propped up on a 20-foot-long phallic symbol by drunken Shinto priests
Visited Nelson Mandela's old prison cell on Robben Island
Eaten springbok pie
Read all the unpublished fiction of the poet H.D. (Hilda Doolittle, 1886-1961)
Hissed the poet Amiri Baraka mid-performance for blatant antisemitism
Read all of the Silmarillion, twice
Made Joyce Carol Oates laugh
