Nine Nevers on 09/09

I thought I would steal this from Jim.

First, I will comment on Jim's "nevers".

I have never...
  1. Gone streaking with anyone. - me neither
  2. Driven into Mexico. - me neither
  3. Graduated from college. - YES, in 1976
  4. Worn only a jockstrap (no pants) in public. - me neither (I would look pretty damn silly in a jockstrap!)
  5. Visited Michigan. - me neither
  6. Met a President (of the US) or Governor of a state. - me neither
  7. Had a fist-fight. - me neither
  8. Visited Savannah, GA. - me neither
  9. Worn a leather harness in public. - me neither
Now it's MY turn!

I have never...

1.  Visited Texas (and never want to!)
2.  Been to Austria (maternal grandmother's family origin)
3.  Been naked in public (thank dog for that!)
4.  Seen the Grand Canyon (although I want to!)
5.  Gotten a Master's degree (why bother?)
6.  Driven a stick-shift car (and never want to!)
7.  Owned a convertible car (why bother?)
8.  Seen Disneyland (and never want to!)
9.  Participated in an orgy (never had the chance)


OK...now it's your turn: 

1. Let us know if YOU have done any of these things.

2. Post some of the things you've never done on you blog. I promise I will play along! (as long as you let me know that you've posted it)

  1. I think it would be a blast and not every woman could do it but I think you should, JUST FOR THE THRILL OF IT, where a jock strap!

    I dare you. I double dare you! ;p

  2. Because of my location, I'm hardly a 'typical' replier, A.M., so I leave the geographical ones to others - except for saying that I HAVE been to Austria twice (Vienna, Salzburg and Innsbruck), but there again, it was far easier for me to do than for yourself.
    Not being able to drive covers another couple on your list. No serious fist fights either.

    Of your other 'nevers' I'm afraid it's a 'yes' to #3, though details of circumstances will NOT be forthcoming for any of the several occasions(sorry, but I wish to protect my 'reputation'), - and as to #9 I refuse to comment (for fear of incriminating myself).

    There'd be a very long list of TV progs I've never seen, but regarding unviewed films I suppose the best known would be 'Jungle Book' - though I have seen most of the song sections in excerpts on TV.

    Now I await contributions from others with more than a little interest.

    1. Just remembered, there was yet another visit to Austria - way back in 1968, to Sankt Anton, when it was still a beautiful, sleepy little Tyrolean village, yet to turn into the bustling ski resort it is now.

    2. WOO HOO! so you were a naughty little boy in the past! ;-)

    3. 'Naughty LITTLE boy'? Moi? Au contraire, A.M. Jamais!
      But as the years start accumulating one feels drawn into trying a bit of this and a bit of that for 'experimental' purposes, doesn't one? I'm sure you know what I mean ;-)

    4. I totally agree on the "try a bit o this n that"; we ain't getting any younger! :)

    5. And if I told you the last time I had just good, plain old-fashioned sex you wouldn't believe me. So please don't ask!

    6. my last good go-round was in 2002. no worries.

    7. I can pre-date that quite significantly, A.M., but let's not play "Mine's bigger than yours". You are brave enough to share - but I need to give a bit more thought for my own 'confession'. (Oh, why did I ever let this subject come up? HELP!"

    8. aw, you don't have to confess anything, dear. love ya! :)

  8. Great idea for a post. I answered Jim's list on his blog. re: yours

    I have never...

    1. Visited Texas (and never want to!)
    Visited San Antonio once. Driven across the panhandle a couple times
    2. Been to Austria (maternal grandmother's family origin)
    Once
    3. Been naked in public (thank dog for that!)
    Yes. Done the streaking thing plus on stage in a play once.
    4. Seen the Grand Canyon (although I want to!)
    2X from the south rim. Seeing it from the north rim is on my to-do list. You should come visit AZ. The Canyon is only 3 hrs away and the welcome mat is out at Casa de Harper. "There's room and bored you won't be."
    5. Gotten a Master's degree (why bother?) nope
    6. Driven a stick-shift car (and never want to!)
    A 'two-fer'! I own a convertible and it is a stick shift
    7. Owned a convertible car (why bother?)
    See #6
    8. Seen Disneyland (and never want to!)
    I've been to Disney World in FL but never Disneyland in CA. Spo and I have been talking about it ever since moving to the southwest. Another to-do
    9. Participated in an orgy (never had the chance)How many people are required for it to be an orgy?

    1. YES to 6 of 9; not bad. you have a convertible? my stars; spo is one lucky guy!

      I think an orgy is more than 4 people. of course, I could be wrong...

      you would want ME to stay at casa de harper? I would probably drive you AND spo crazy. the nearest amtrak stop is flagstaff (to your north) since I don't fly. but the offer IS tempting...

      Delete
    2. Actually there is an Amtrak station in Maricopa AZ as well which is closer but the schedule is not as convenient. Besides we love Flagstaff. We know a nice B&B, so great places to eat and the south rim of the Canyon is less than an hour from there.

      An orgy is 4 or more? Put me down as a 'no' then. I'd hate to send out that many Thank You notes!
