Ok, there is WAAAY to much story missing here...
Bitten by a rattlesnake?
I was gathering eggs, and the snake got upset when I stepped on it.
Faced down muggers?
One of the hazards of driving a taxi on the night shift in Portland.
Shot at?
I was participating in a raid at a dog fight.
Shot?!!!
Same dog fight. This one didn't miss.
.. and Good Lord what do you keep in your attic and basement!!! ;-)
They're large, black, and have eight legs and fangs.
