I once......

The idea is to keep all your statements starting with "I once..."

I once was so hungry I ate a half eaten sandwich out of the trash, which I had thrown in there several hours earlier, which I had bought from the super market 4 days prior.

I once got so hungry I ate my own leg...

I once made up a dramatic story in a thread on a discussion forum. Don't know if anybody bought it...

I once jumped out of a C-130 and hung in a thermal for about 3 minutes. I went up, not down until I was clear of the thermal

I once killed a baby rattlesnake (4 inches long) by lifting my foot onto the outer edge and allowing the snake to crawl under my shoe for cover. Someone said, "Get something to kill it". I applied a size 9 and about 195 lbs of downward force.

It did the job. It went out with a pop.

Lets see, let me figure this one out. A C-130 must be some sort of military vehicle, and since you jumped out, probably a plane. Thermal must mean warm air that you fell into and we all know warm air rises so you went up not down. Did I figure it out? (Having never been in the military I am just guessing so bear with me).

But I love that kind of talk anyway!

I once thought I knew everything, then, life happened.

I once had a little person try to punch me in the nards.

I once had a handle on life

But it broke off and then before I could get it re attatched my wife came along cleaning and threw it away asking me to take out the trash. I didn't know it was in there so I thew it in the dumpster like she told me to.

I once was almost struck by lightning. Note to others: Do not go walking out in an open field to get a better view of a lightning storm, no matter how cool it may look.

I once laughed at reading this post.

I once had a Bioethics text to read.
Wait... I think I still do :O

I once ate some Milk Bone dog treats because that was the only thing i could find to eat in my house. (They weren't too bad, kind of grainy). I was stoned and was too paranoid to go out to McDonalds.

I once accidentally started a fire in my friend's garage and then ran. I ran around the block and up to the neighbors to tell them there was a fire in the garage next door. They ran and got a bucket of water and gave it to me and I put out the fire. I was congratulated for my heroism.

I know there's a moral there somewhere.

If you wanna be a hero, light a fire.
