Well, I’m up at 6:41 but it’s Fall Back Day so I guess I supposedly feel like it’s 7:41? Or do I have that backwards? Anyway, the coffee’s good. Here’s a quiz.

(BTW, I detest this clock-changing and the whole thing is stupid and DST needs to be smothered with a pillow, and that’s all I’ll say on the subject.)

1. Do you have a business card? If yes, what’s your job title?

For my day job, I do not. I do have cards for my Official Site and as an author, but I need to make new ones! They’re wildly out of date and don’t reflect my newfound identity as a photographer, and worse, they feature quotes by Neil Gaiman and JK Rowling, neither of whom I want to associate myself with in any way. Making new cards has been on my “To Do” list…for a while now. I’m thinking Thanksgiving Weekend might be a time to do that.

2. What day of the week were you born?

Saturday, I think? No, Sunday! I had to look it up. Sunday, September 26, 1971. 

3. What vegetable do you refuse to eat?

My antipathy for broccoli is so well known that I doubt I can even use “Mmmm, broccoli!” as a way of notifying social media followers that I have been kidnapped.

4. How many times have you stayed overnight in the hospital? 

Zero. I hope to continue this streak as long as possible.

5. Do you have more piercings or tattoos?

I have zero of either. What can I say, I’m boring. (I wouldn’t mind having a tattoo, but I don’t want any enough to actually spend the money to do it.)

6. Do you like to shop?

Yes, and I’m trying to like it less.

7. How much cash is in your wallet right now?

Let’s just say “more than usual”, because we’re actually going to a market event today in Canada. Yay!

8. Let’s play MASH: Do you live in a mansion, apartment, shack, or house?

House. I could do “apartment” again, especially if it’s in a city. Mansion would feel really weird; if I had the money to do “mansion” I think I’d rather do “house” (with the proviso that it’s big enough that I can shelve all my books, with no double-shelving) on a big piece of land with lots of trees. I am very suspicious of people who live on tree-less lots.

9. Where are you in the family birth order (oldest, middle child, youngest, or only child)?

Youngest.

10. When you were 5 years old, what did you call your parents?  

Mom and Dad. (Sure would be nice if I could call them now, to be honest.)

This week’s Sunday Stealing quiz is pretty straight-forward stuff about “adulting”. (And honestly? I have to conclude that at 55 I’m still not that good at adulting, so maybe it’s just not gonna happen.) 

The Grown Up Meme 

1. Do you have a college degree?

Yes! B.A. in Philosophy with a minor in Music, Wartburg College, 1993!

2. What was the amount of your last electric bill?

Hell if I know. The Wife pays the utilities. (I pay food and other stuff.)

3. Do you have life insurance?

I have a small-ish policy. I don’t actually know that life insurance makes a terribly great investment.

4. Do you check your cholesterol on (at least) an annual basis?

Twice a year, currently; my doctor loves bloodwork, and currently I’m seeing her twice a year. (It’s good, actually! My cholesterol numbers are consistently terrific.

5. Have you ever attended a high school reunion?

No. Facebook and social media pretty much eliminate that need for me, and at this point, we’re past the 30-year mark.

6. Do you have a will or estate plan?

No. Maybe I should….

7. Do you remember when MTV played music videos?

Oh yes! Fun times, those. We lived outside the part of town that had cable for several years, though, so I only got to see MTV when I went to a friend’s house. I didn’t really get the idea at first, but I quickly figured it out! (BTW, one of the first videos I ever saw, Bette Midler’s cover of “Beast of Burden” by the Stones, ends with Bette and Mick Jagger getting pied in the face!)

8. Is there a bottle of wine in your refrigerator?

Technically, yes, as I have a bottle of vermouth in there that I use for Manhattans. Other than that, no. I’ll only put wine in the fridge if we’re planning to drink it that night.

9. Have you been divorced? 

No, and I never will be, either. It’s not an option. Period. I don’t think we ever got close even when we were struggling the hardest.

10. When you were 16, did you play music on vinyl, cassette, or CDs? 

Mostly cassette and some vinyl. This was 1987-88. I didn’t have my first CD player until Christmas of my senior year, when I was 17. (Christmas 1988, that is.) Vinyl was tough because we only had one record player in the house, so what I did for a few years was buy recordings on vinyl (heavily classical at this point) and use the good player to record them onto high-quality cassettes.

And now that this quiz is done, I’m off to throw some empty cans at the kids on my lawn!

This week’s quiz has no theme, so I’m not even going to post it on Sunday! So there!

1. What was the last gift you received?

The Daughter gave me a birthday present: a 12-inch record that had been etched out with Star Wars designs. It’s really cool! I need to figure out how to display it and then I’ll get pictures.

2. Who did you last hang out with?

Just about all my hanging out nowadays is with The Wife, and I’m fine with that! She’s a ton of fun to hang out with and she gets me and I get her and it’s just that she’s who I want to hang out with. It’s a good thing when you want to hang out with the person you married.

3. Do you often lose the remote?

No! And that’s kind of surprising, considering how tiny it is.  Is the age of the Giant Clunky Remote With Eight Hundred Buttons receding into memory?

4. When did you last check Facebook?

As I write this on Sunday morning, an hour or two ago. Facebook is becoming my least-used social media platform, to be honest: Not only is it showing me less and less content by people I follow, it’s also showing me more and more content by people I don’t know at all. And if that isn’t bad enough, if there’s a right-wing MAGA chud out there, whether they’re an actual noted person or just some Joe Schmo, Facebook’s algorithm will show it to me, no matter how many times I tell it that I’m not interested because MAGA sucks. I know that liberal and left-wing content exists, but I see very, very little of it. You can’t tell me that Facebook isn’t putting a thumb on the scale.

5. Are there scented candles in the room you’re in?

Not at present, just a couple unscented ones. We are heading into candle season, though.

6. Next time you leave the house, where will you be going?

Just to walk doggos. I don’t plan on going anywhere today.

7. Do you know anyone named Steven or Stephen or Steve or Stevie?

Yes! I have a coworker named Steve. Good dude. He won’t see this.

8. Which do you prefer: macaroni salad or potato salad?

Potato, especially mustard potato salad. I do like macaroni salad, but my family generally doesn’t, so I don’t get it often.

9. Do you have an ice maker in your refrigerator door?

No. For years I wasn’t really a fan of these, but the fridge we had in our suite in Hawaii five years ago had one, and you could change the consistency of the ice depending on what you wanted. That was a cool feature.

10. When you woke up this morning, did you get up straightaway or lounge a bit?

On weekends I’ll kind of doze in and out, and when Hobbes starts making noise, then I’ll get up and deal with his needs. This morning, Hobbes never made a sound! I got up after his normal waking hour (to my chagrin, he’s an early riser, so I don’t get to sleep in much on weekends) to check, and lo, he was fine, just hadn’t made noise yet. Weird dog!

Apparently WHAT? is the theme of this week’s Sunday Stealing! Let’s get at it:

1. What are you currently excited about?

Currently? Well, I’m making the first pot of Buffalo Chicken Soup for the season today, and we’re going to the Buffalo AKG Museum later on! (Pro tip: visiting our local museums and cultural institutions on Bills game days makes for a lovely experience.)

2. What do you wish you had more time for?

Photography and writing. 

3. What would like to do less?

Things that aren’t photography and writing! Seriously, though…I gotta admit, I’m pretty much over the 5-day, 40-hour work week. Sadly I have reached this point probably a full ten years before I can feasibly abandon the 5-day, 40-hour work week.

4. What do you spend too much money on?

Food, camera stuff, books, poofy Renfest shirts, and overalls.

5. What childhood wish never came true?

Well, I was never a professional trumpet player or orchestra conductor. Those aren’t happening. Nor have I become a pro writer, though that one still has life to it! Photography was never a childhood wish, but that’s the closest to coming true, which is interesting…don’t sleep on the dreams you develop later in life, folks!

(Oh, and I still want, but honestly am unlikely to get, that Big Trak I wanted when I was 9. At this point I’m happy to let that dream be a pleasant “what if”. Yeah, I could still get one–I’ve just looked and there are a bunch on eBay–but I honestly don’t know what I’d do with it at this point other than say, “Look, I finally have it.” And Lord knows, I am perfectly willing to make “Look, I finally have it!” be my main motivation for buying things!)

6. What did you do to celebrate your last birthday?

This year, for what I think is the first time since we started going there, the Ithaca Apple Harvest Festival actually aligned with my birthday! I might be wrong here, but I don’t think we’ve ever actually been in Ithaca on my birthday. And it was a fantastic day. I haven’t started editing those photos yet.

7. What drives you nuts?

Right now, just because it’s fresh on my mind, people who make an adversarial response to any mild opinion you might offer. Last night I posted my opinion that while I do love the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, from the standpoint of appreciating the Falls as a natural wonder, I prefer the American side for various reasons. This drew a number of pithy replies. Come on, people. “X is awesome, but I do like Y a little more!” is not a pistols-at-dawn kind of thing.

8. What keeps you sane?

Ignoring the world as much as possible.

9. What historic date is etched in your memory?

An incomplete list:
–7/4/1776
–11/11/1914
–12/7/1941
–11/22/1963
–5/25/1977
–1/28/1986
–9/11/2001
–10/7/2023

There are also a lot of events I know by year, but not by specific date: 476AD (final fall of the Roman Empire), 1066 (Battle of Hastings), 1453 (fall of the Byzantine empire), 1685 and 1750 (birth and death of JS Bach), 1756 and 1791 (birth and death of WA Mozart), 1775-1783 (American Revolution), 1789-1797 (George Washington’s term of office as President), 1770 and 1827 (birth and death of LW Beethoven), 1803 and 1869 (birth and death of Hector Berlioz), 1861-1865 (American Civil War), 1898 (Spanish-American War), 1901 (President McKinley assassinated in Buffalo), 1914-1918 (WWI), 1939-1945 (WWII).

Also, birth dates of loved ones: 7/17/1939, 8/3/1941, 5/30/1965, 2/25/1970, and 6/19/1999.

10. What one thing would make your life immeasurably better? 

All else being equal? More money.

But other options include: robust public transportation in my area (we have OK public transportation), single-payer healthcare, a shorter work week, and the end of MAGA.

OK, here we go! We just got back from our annual trip to Ithaca for Apple Fest, and I also just turned another year older, so I’ll get back in the swing with this, a Quiz.

1. If you were trapped in a TV universe for a month, what TV show would you choose?

If I had to actually live in a teevee universe for a month? Am I actually hobnobbing with the cast, or am I just some Joe Schmo living there? Normally I’d take an easy way here with Star Trek, but I think instead I’ll go with the setting of a very new show that I’ve been enjoying a great deal since it launched last season: Port Wenn, the fictional Maine coastal town of Best Medicine. If you haven’t seen it, in the show a city doctor who is very buttoned-up goes to live in this little New England town full of quirky residents. Think House MD meets Newhart.

2. What song instantly revs you up and gets you going? 

Oooof, I don’t know about a song that fires me up…but “Dreams” by Van Halen can, and has, neutralized many a bad mood I’ve been in. Also, “Human” by The Killers is a nice song to play during the home-from-work drive; I like making the transition from being annoyed at work to being happy at home.

In college, my roommate and I would blast the last movement of Saint-Saens’s Third Symphony, the “Organ” Symphony, while we dressed for band or orchestra concerts. That was always fun.

3. Are you decorating your home for fall? 

Not really. I always feel like I should do more seasonal decorating, but it never really happens.

4. How do you treat a cold?

Rest and lots of fluids. Green tea with honey, soup, and a lot of water. My goal is to drown that virus and flush it out of me.

5. What insignificant thing would you be genuinely annoyed if you lost it or it was taken from you?

Well, we recently broke one of the glass bottles we use for maple syrup, and that’s been on my mind for replacement now. I had bought a bottle of syrup years ago in the shape of a snowflake, and we have been rinsing and refilling it for years (along with a few others) from the big quart or, more recently, half-gallon jugs of maple syrup that we buy at farmers markets and the like. That bottle broke during washing a month or two ago. Bummer!

6. What place do you remember vividly, even though you haven’t been there in years?

Maybe next year I’ll drive the 60 miles or so to Allegany and Olean, NY to see how things have changed in the towns I grew up. I have visited neither since 2014, when I helped my parents move for the last time.

7. Do you have a favorite Dolly Parton song or story?

Song? “Hard Candy Christmas”, which I’m sure will be featured this coming Holiday season here during the Daily Dose. Story? I love that she knew that owning the rights to her own songs was important, so she declined to let Elvis Presley record “I Will Always Love You” because he required ownership of any song he did. I also love that someone asked her about the fact that a lot of people think she’s a “dumb blonde”, and she replied, “Whatever, I know I’m not dumb and I’m not blonde.” I don’t know how true this is, but I remember reading that Parton would go out with her husband and be totally unrecognizable because she would eschew makeup and any wig.

OK, that’s all, I got more unpacking to do. Moving on!

I was planning to take a break from Sunday Stealing this week, but I kind of like this format: it’s ten statements and you indicate if they are true or false for you. So, here we go. I’m marking the TRUE ones in BOLD ITALICS.

TRUE OR FALSE

1. I’m married.

(Nearly 30 years, huzzah!)

2. I’m raising a teenager.

(Nope, they are 27 now, so we’re 7 years past the teenager point. But they have turned out amazingly well. I don’t write about them here because it’s their life and I don’t think it’s my place to chronicle it, but they have done a lot of amazing things the last several years to improve their life and explore who they are. A lot of what they are doing now amazes me.)

3. I recently vacationed in California.

(Maybe someday!)

4. I have traveled to Asia.

(Maybe someday! Though I’m less sure of this one.)

5. I have a dog.

6. I received money from a class action settlement.

(I vaguely remember getting a few bucks off some goofy thing. I can’t remember the details.)

7. I’ve been in the waiting room when a family member had surgery.

(This is not fun. I am a worrier by nature.)

8. I have attended a convention.

(I’m not as big into fandom circles these days, but I do still think Buffalo should host a Worldcon! Come on, folks!)

9. I subscribe to my local newspaper (either print or online).

(We subscribed to the Sunday Buffalo News for years, but it just got worse and worse and worse over the years. I waffled for a long time over letting it lapse, because supporting journalism is important, but there’s also the fact that spending money on a continually worsening product just to support that product’s existence just felt worse and worse.)

10. I recently had work done to the exterior of my home.

(We outsource the cutting of the grass, and I’m counting that. I hate lawn work. It probably makes economic sense to get a mower and do it ourselves, but…look, I really dislike lawn work, and I even think that Americans have created this whole lawn work thing so they have something that’s “productive” to do during their leisure time. I think it’s a Calvinistic “The Devil finds work for idle hands” sort of thing, and I can be downright suspicious of people who insist that they really do like yardwork.)

I guess I should really be doing this installment of Sunday Stealing on my actual birthday, but I’m not going to remember to post this on September 26, and I’m finding that scheduled posts isn’t working very well here these days (I’m not sure if that’s because of the site theme I’m using or what), so I’ll just do it now:

Wikipedia Meme

First, what is your birthday (month/day)?

Already noted: September 26! (Year: 1971. Get off my lawn.)

Now, go to Wikipedia and list:

1) Four historic events 

–In 1580, Sir Francis Drake completed his circumnavigation of the Earth. The voyage took almost three years, and when Drake arrived in the English Channel again, he learned that he had been presumed dead.
–In 1687, the Parthenon in Athens was badly damaged because someone had decided that it would be a great place to store gunpowder and munitions. It exploded. Oops.
–In 1789, President George Washington appointed Thomas Jefferson as Secretary of State. Neither office is held by anyone worth anything today.
–In 1960, Democratic presidential candidate Senator John F. Kennedy faced the Republican nominee, Vice President Richard Nixon, in the first televised presidential debate.

2) Three births

Every year on my birthday I note that I share a birthdate with George Gershwin, Olivia Newton-John, and Jim Caviezel. So here I’ll note three other notable persons sharing my birthday:

–1774: Johnny Appleseed (I don’t want to admit how old I was when I learned that Johnny Appleseed was a real guy, I always figured his was like Paul Bunyan)
–1888: T.S. Eliot, English poet. I actually haven’t read enough Eliot!
–1963: Lysette Anthony, English actress. Twelve-year-old me had quite a crush on her when she appeared in Krull.

3) Two deaths

–1902: Levi Strauss, the guy who invented Levi’s jeans. Maybe I should wear a pair of Levi’s overalls this year in his honor….
–1984: John Facenda, the guy with the distinctive voice who narrated a bunch of NFL Films productions back in the day. You know, the guy who said things like “On this icy January day, two sets of warriors took to the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field to decide the championship of the National Football League!”

1) One holiday or observance 

Well, I’m sure that any year now, the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons will achieve critical mass of societal awareness!

Today’s Sunday Stealing is a standard “List of favorites” kind of thing, so I’m going to ignore the “favorites” thing and instead just write about the first thing that comes to mind after each individual prompt. Make sense? No? Well, we’ll figger it oat. Here we go!

WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE …? (Not doing favorites. Just riffing. -Ed.)

1. Flavor?

So on Saturday nights we almost always have “Charcuterie Night”, in which I cut up some cheeses and present some cured meat of some sort for dinner. Right now I have cheddar on the mind, because I almost always have some kind of cheddar on the plate. It’s on the mind right now because the current cheddar, “Vermont Sharp” by Cabot Creamery, is kind of disappointing. I like my cheddar flavorful, and this…isn’t. Maybe it’s a batch issue, as I’ve never been disappointed by Cabot Creamery’s product before, but I think next week it might be back to Kerrygold.

2. Movie?

Also on Saturday nights we usually watch a movie, and we alternate weeks as to who gets to pick the movie. The Wife has a habit of picking things that are really different; sometimes her picks get really out there, but that’s great! Last night we watched The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, a Western anthology movie by the Coen Brothers, and as is usually the case with these two, it’s a hilarious and violent and weird movie. Next week, though, I get to pick! (Though I’m actually on vacation right now so we might make every night movie night! Yee-haw!)

3. Piece of jewelry?

I don’t wear much jewelry. I like to wear my wedding ring and another ring that The Wife got me before we were married, but only on my days off; there are times in my job where I’m putting my hands places that I wouldn’t want my nice jewelry to be. I also have a few watches on neck chains; I should dig those out and replace the batteries and start wearing them, especially now as we are (theoretically) heading into the cooler part of summer. I’ve never been a big fan of metal chains on my bare skin, but who knows, I was never a big fan of button-up shirts or v-neck tees before, either.

4. Place to be?

Anywhere, if I have my camera on me! Otherwise, home, with my books and dogs and those family-type people.

5. Boy’s name?

There’s a long-simmering, long-unfinished book on my hard drive that I should probably finish because it has a character in it named “Sair Guthrick Marbury”, which might be my favorite character name of mine, ever. (“Sair” is an honorific title like “Sir”, given to artists and creative people of note.)

6. Girl’s name?

Desdemona. Why? Because I’m thinking of upgrading my camera to a full body-and-lens system in the relatively near future, and I am taking to naming my devices using names of women from Shakespeare. My phone is Ophelia, and my current camera is Miranda. (This computer is Galadriel, which is from Tolkien, because I hadn’t started using Shakespeare names at that point.)

7. Candy?

Oooooh, I love candy, but I’ve had to really back off my love of the stuff for health reasons. A shame, too, because candy really does make the world better. Candies I like that you maybe don’t? Necco wafers and candy corn.

And then there’s liquid candy, best known in the form of rum!

8. Sports team?

Hey, the Bills had their first preseason game in the new stadium yesterday! I don’t even know, as I write this, if they won. It’s preseason, who cares about Ws or Ls, it’s mainly about seeing who can play and who can’t. Giddyap!

9. Color?

For now? Green. Because it is now the back half of August, which means that green’s clock is ticking down….

10. Month? 

September. Why? Because!

This week’s Sunday Stealing is a list of things you either have done or have not done. I’ll bold the ones I have actually done, and I’ll provide occasional comment throughout because a list by itself is kinda boring, right? Here we go!

Have you ever …

1. Slept under the stars


I mean, technically, we’re always sleeping under the stars! But really, I get the point here. Have I slept the entire night outside, with nothing between me and the sky? Well, no. But I’ve dozed off out there, and I’m counting it. Especially the times as a kid when we were camping and I was sitting by the campfire and the next thing I remembered, it was morning and I was in the camper.

By the way, I’m reminded of a great joke:

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson went on a camping trip. After a good meal and a bottle of wine they lay down for the night, and went to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend.

“Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.”

Watson replied, “I see millions and millions of stars.”

“What does that tell you?”

Watson pondered for a minute. “Astronomically, it tells me that there  are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I  deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, I supect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Why, what does it tell you?”

Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke. “Watson, you imbecile. Some bastard has stolen our tent.”

2. Played in a band


Concert bands and jazz bands count. No, I have not played in a rock band, a country band, a jam band, or a swing band.

3. Visited Hawaii 

And we’re hoping to go back next spring!

4. Visited Easter Island 

(Does anyone just…visit Easter Island? It’s extremely remote and I’m not sure what there is to really do there other than see the Moai statues.)

5. Watched a meteor shower


My mother loved the Perseids.

6. Seen the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace

Aside from Hawaii, I have never left North America.

7. Been to Disneyland or Disney World 


I was at Disneyland when I was very young, and Disney World when I was a little older (both before I was ten). I had an Epcot visit in college while on a music tour, and The Wife and I celebrated our first anniversary, in 1998, at Disney World. I used to really want to go back, but now? I’m not against it, by any means, but it’s not a priority.

8. Climbed a mountain 


Well, define “climb”. I’ve hiked quite a few. If by “climb” we mean the whole bit with pitons and ropes and the possibility of long plummets punctuated by unfortunate impact, then, no.

9. Held a praying mantis

As a kid. I’m not clamoring to do so again. They’re beautiful insects, but I don’t think they need to be handled by humans.

10. Been to the Louvre 

I wouldn’t mind at all!

11. Had food poisoning


Yeah, that was unpleasant. Luckily it passed pretty quickly.

12. Eaten vegetables you grew yourself

I’d do more, but I’m lazy.

13. Slept overnight on a train

I’d love to do this!

14. Built a snow fort

When we moved in 1981 to WNY and finally lived in a place with consistent snow, where we lived was too sparse to make a snow fort really worth the effort. And why make a snow fort when sledding on the hills is right there as an option?

15. Held a lamb

16. Gone skinny dipping

Weirdly, I prefer swimming clothed!

17. Been on a cruise (day cruises and dinner cruises count)

Booze cruise FTW!!! Also whale watching off Cape Cod and dolphin watching off Cape May.

18. Seen Niagara Falls 


Well yeah, it’s just 30 miles that way. [points]

19. Visited the birthplace of your ancestors

If by “ancestors” we mean my parents, then yes! I’ve been to Pittsburgh many times and was born there myself. If by “ancestors” we mean Germany and Ireland and wherever else might be in there, then no.

20. Sung karaoke

21. Sat for a portrait

22. Walked on a beach by moonlight


23. Been transported in an ambulance

24. Gone scuba diving or snorkeling 


Snorkeling.

25. Kissed in the rain


26. Played in the mud


As a kid, yeah. But I’m not a fan of mud. I see photos of muddy people from Woodstock or other festivals and I’m like, “Ewwww.” And this from a person who finds getting hit with pies a fun experience….

27. Gone to a drive-in theater

Only as a kid. There’s a popular one not far from where we live, but somehow it never ends up on our summer agenda….

28. Changed your vehicle’s oil yourself

I did this a few times some years ago, mainly so I could get that in my memory bank and develop a few mechanical skills. But I don’t bother anymore; I just get it done twice a year, once at inspection time and once six months or so after that.

29. Taken a martial arts class

30. Visited the Vatican

I have very little interest in seeing the Vatican, actually. My parents went to the Vatican when they went to Rome twenty years or so ago. My mother, who by this time was not just a lapsed Catholic but an angry lapsed Catholic, really hated the experience. She only wanted to see the Sistine Chapel, which apparently comes at the very end of a long tour during which there are no places to sit to take a rest, and she also had things to say about how many “marble penises” there are in the Vatican.

31. Volunteered at a soup kitchen or food pantry

I donate a lot of product and money, but I’ve never donated labor. I should, I suppose.

32. Sold Girl Scout cookies

33. Bought a used car

I honestly don’t see any reason to buy new.

34. Sat on a jury

35. Ridden an elephant
