Dumbest thing you ever did?

Besides reading this post, what is the dumbest thing you ever did?

Mine is, while writing out Christmas cards last week, I tried to lick that envelope seal and close it like one normally does.

My wife goes, "Idiot, WTF are you doing?"

I go, "Licking the envelope to seal it but it won't work."

She goes, "You're licking the glue strip. Pull the strip off and it will seal automatically."

I go, "How was I supposed to know?"

Am I right or wrong?

What's the dumbest thing you ever did?

Not buying that house in Mission Viejo for $32K back in the 70s because I was going through a divorce and didn't think I could handle the $200 (maybe it was less) mortgage payments by myself.

Huge lesson learned. If you want something and it's a good investment. Reach - stretch.

Back in the late 50;s or early 60's Property in Newport Beach was 500 dollars a lot and the further you got away from the ocean, it was less.

got kicked out of an angel game once so headed for a near by bar where a friend was bartender.

was doing shot after shot and talkin basketball with a brotha.

had a grizzly adams like beard at the time.

for some reason i asked him "can you do this"?
i took a lighter out and lit my beard on fire.

my friend the bartender did throw a wet towel in my face.
got tossed out of there and was asked never to come back.
guess the smell of burnt hair wasnt good for business.


i love the smell of burnt hair in the evening......it smells like victory.


yikes thats prolly not close to being the dumbest thing ive done.

I wish that was the dumbest thing I ever did.

That was #118 on my countdown list. Still have 117 dumber things to list.

Wait til you see #7. All I'll say it has something to do with ironing my pants.

Eighteenth birthday in Yokosuka, Japan (Navy), was drunk and got stopped by the Shore Patrol.

Mistake #1 - took a swing at the SP. The effect was to quintriple my punishment, from 14 days restricted to the ship to 7 days in the Marine Brig, Yokosuka.
Mistake #2 - the non-com I swung at was the Welter-weight Fleet boxing champion (combined Navy and Marines).

That didn't go well.
