(I hope what he said is true!.!.!.hee hee)

I can play "The William Tell Overture" (the Lone Ranger Theme) snapping my fingers in tempo to smacking my fist with the finger-snapping hand, like a "High Class Curly" from The 3 Stooges!.!.!."

In a room full of drunk Sophisticats!.!.!.

You wouldn't be able to tell the difference between me and any major Symphonic Orchestra!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I was in theater in high school!. I don't sing (or at least my singing isn't fit for public consumption), so I stage managed all the musicals and acted in the plays!.

One of my best friends was the lead in "The King and I" (yeah, he even shaved his head), and we built a huge apron that went out around the orchestra pit in a "U" shape, so he could dance another friend of mine, who played Anna, around!. We were at rehearsals one time, right before dress rehearsals, and he wanted to waltz me around the apron!. There were about a gazillion people in the auditorium, getting ready for rehearsal, and as he was waltzing me around, someone called my name!. I looked over my shoulder and he looked up, too, and we waltzed right off the apron and into the front row of seats!. Luckily, he's always been a gentleman, and he twisted as we were going down so that he landed on the bottom!. We both damn near broke our necks on the armrests for the seats in the front row!. And yeah, everyone in the whole school, including the ancient lunch ladies, knew about it the next day!.

My only other damn claim to fame was getting a perfect score for a dramatic piece at state competition!. There's a big huge trophy somewhere in a case at my former high school with my name on it!. It's a freaking depressing piece, and it took me years to forget it!. Now, my friends have kids who go to that school, and they are always emailing me and saying, "Hey, I saw your name in the trophy case!" What do you say to that!? "Yeah, whatever, kid," just doesn't seem to cut it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I was what we call a majorette (baton twirler) but never did twirl fire!.!.So, I would have to say my claim to fame was paying my house off so young!. My husband & I came from kind of poor/stuggling backgrounds!. When we got married I was 17 & he was 25!. I wanted to buy a house even though I had no clue how to do that!. By the time I was 19 we bought a house!. By the time I was 22 we had it paid off!. We had to go to the main band when we paid the last payment to sign papers!. The people at the bank said "usually the people who come in here (to the pay off dept!. are much older & have grey hair)!. Because we did these we have had a financial advantage that we didn't even think about plus we saved a fortune on intrest!. It was really hard to do though!. I ended up studying success & now know there are easier ways to do things than to work as hard as we did!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I was in a band when this song came out, we learned it a played it before it was super popular on the radio!. Mario and I harmonized on the vocals!. It sounded so good that at our first gig playing it, a high school dance, everybody came up to the stage just to sway and listen to the song!. It was a rush singing a song that caused that kind of reaction!.
