being bitten on the neck by a dog at 3 or 4 y.o.. i had been practicing jumping up on the trunk of my grandparent's old chrystler that morning. neighbors came across the road with their dog, who the teens had been aggravating all morning, and i guess i surprised it when i petted it and it turned and came after me...didn't make it onto the trunk that jump and the dog caught me. local country dr stitched it up and I got blood poisoning b/c he didn't clean it well (was into his supply of mother's little helpers at the time).
to this day i remember drinking a small bottle of coke, watching grandparent's black and white tv (lawrence welk show was on) and sitting on my little green stool ('73 or '74).
