Yes…more than once, but not in the past 50 years or so…

Have you ever been to an NFL game?
 
Yes! I danced a reel at a friend’s wedding.

Have you ever ridden in a police car? 🚓
 
No, that sounds like something I’d do but so far I haven’t. 😌 I’d be more likely to forget to turn the oven off and burn its contents to a crisp… 😞

(It’s possible to ride in a police car without being either a cop, a victim of a crime, or the [suspected] perpetrator of one 😉)

Have you ever been mistaken for your parent’s sibling rather than his/her child?

More times than I can count. Thank goodness for AAA back in the day, and the prevalence of key fobs over simple car keys in present times…

Have you ever worn a traditional costume? (Kimono, lederhosen, etc.)

No. I tried. Medical issues prevented it.

Have you ever volunteered in a homeless shelter?
 
Yes. We live about a mile [country mile] from the county animal shelter, and years ago, people used to drop off unwanted pets on our road, assuming we’d either take them in or turn them in. I was walking my dog, about a quarter mile from home, when a frightened puppy literally jumped out of the bushes and started walking between my legs…it ‘followed’ us home, and we took it in for the night, but it was obvious that our dog was happy being an only dog…I talked to my good friends across the street, and they took her in.

Have you ever donated blood?
 
Many, many times…sometimes with an axe, but usually with a chainsaw.

Have you ever planted a tree?[Not a sapling…a tree…]
 
I hired someone to. I am not that strong nor do I have heavy equipment.

Have you ever made banana nut bread?
 
Yes. Not for a while though.

Have you ever made a coffee cake from scratch?
 
Been awhile, chocolate coconut crumble topped.

Have you ever learned sign language?
 
Many times…usually related to what I was dreaming about.

Have you ever used a potato to unscrew a broken light bulb?
 
No

Have you ever dropped broken a jar of pickles all over the floor?
 
No, but many years ago I did get a tongue-lashing from a front desk clerk in a hotel for being “too noisy” in the room. 😊

Have you ever been a best man or maid/matron of honor in a wedding party?

Yes…I worked in Campus Ministry back in the mid-70’s, and we did a few short inspirational spots that were aired when the networks signed off at night.

Have you ever had frozen pizza that was better than carryout? [Most chain pizza joints here are so generic that frozen is preferable…of course, nothing beats homemade…]

I’ve allowed a couple friends who were running for local offices to put their signs in my yard…nothing beyond that…

Have you ever driven a diesel-powered vehicle?
