No, can't say as I have.

Well, I'm at work, so ... yeah.

Nope. I'm pretty familiar with the stuff in PA on I-70 and I-80, but the stuff in between is a no-Ben's-land.
TNP can touch his or her toes without bending the knees.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."

Yeah, just tried it, and by golly, I can still do it.
TNP had bad dreams last night.
False, slept like a log. But then a large glass of sherry before bed will do that.
TNP can swim a mile.
In the land of the blind, the one-arm man is king.
I haven't in awhile, but when I was in Boy Scouts I did it every summer. I suspect I still could, but can't be sure.
Just found out I can still touch my toes without bending my knees, though!
TNP has been to Athens.
False, although I'd like to to go.
TNP is currently reading more than one book.
False, just the one book of sudoku I am working through
TNP has gone to an Olympic Games
In the land of the blind, the one-arm man is king.
True; two. I saw events from both the 1996 Summer Olympics (Atlanta games, but soccer was played in stadiums around the country, including Washington D.C., where I lived) and the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
TNP expects to be bald one day.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
No, I don't think so. My hair's thinning, but I think I've got enough that it will last until I go.
TNP is prematurely grey.
False, no greys yet, and if my parents are any indication, I won't start going grey until my late 40s (knock wood).
Yes, but what is the QUESTION FOR THE NEXT POSTER?!?!?!?!
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."

DAMN MY UN-CAFFIENATED MIND.
TNP prefers vanilla over chocolate.
If we're talking about ice cream, absolutely.
TNP likes chai.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
Yeah, I guess so, in that I'll often order it in an Indian restaurant. No, in that I never think "You know what would go good right now, a good cup of chai."
TNP likes Jack Daniels.
Yes, a little sip now and then goes down quite smoothly.
TNP has been to Barcelona.
No, but it's a place I definitely wouldn't mind seeing.
TNP has been to a bullfight.
Never have, and I doubt I ever will. I've seen pictures in Spanish-language papers and it's too gory for me (to say nothing of the immorality of animal blood sports IMHO).
TNP has been to Chicago.
False; I've driven past and have stopped at O'Hare but I don't really consider that as counting.
TNP has IKEA products in the room they are currently in.
True, my dresser is from there. I was so proud when I put together the whole thing by myself.
TNP owns more than 2 bookshelves.
Oh sure. In spite of migrating more and more towards ebooks, and in spite of selling a couple hundred paperbacks to the bookstore on our way out of Texas in 2010, we still have four or five bookshelves earning their keep.
TNP has a comic book or graphic novel somewhere in the house.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
I don't think so. Possible, but none come to mind. The kid, like most kids these days, has essentially zero interest in comic books.
TNP watches at least one TV show based on a comic book or graphic novel.
False, in fact I don't think I can even name any other than kids' manga-based stuff like Naruto.
TNP owns at least one Japanese anime DVD that is neither Akira, nor by Hayao Miyazaki.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
False, own no anime DVDs that I can think of.
TNP can't remember the last time they watched a DVD.
Very false, I watch them all the time. When Netflix goes to an all-online service I will be one sad puppy.
TNP still owns video cassettes.
True. It's probably been over a year since I last watched one, though. It's either the DVR or DVDs for me nowadays, far more often than not.
TNP has been to Duluth.
Nope, don't believe I've ever been to Minnesota.
TNP knows someone who's had rabies shots.
Pets, yes. People, no.
TNP has been to El Paso.
True.
TNP played a sport in high school.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
No. Even by the pathetic standards of our high school, I was no athlete.
TNP scored in high school.
False. Not until I was 24, in fact.
TNP owns a class ring of some kind.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
True. I have a college class ring that I was very eager to get at the time, but have hardly ever worn since.
TNP has been to Fargo.
No, but I've been in a Fargo pickup truck, and I've listened to Donna Fargo.
TNP has seen the movie "Fargo".
True, a few times, in fact. One of my favorite Coen brothers movies.
TNP has been to a doctor in the past month.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
False. It's been a bit longer than that.
TNP has been to Galveston.
True, several times, while I lived in Houston. It's a cool little town with fascinating history.
TNP has been to Quebec.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
Many's the time, most recently this past summer. Wouldn't mind going again.
TNP has been to Angola.
Nope, and from what I hear of it, I doubt I ever will. Sounds exceedingly unpleasant.
TNP has been to Hamamatsu.
Nope. Sounds like they have a lot of interesting festivals.
TNP has seen a wild polar bear.
Hmmm....no, I don't think so. There was one not that far away when I lived in Iqaluit, but I didn't get out to see him.
TNP has seen a wild caribou.
Yes, I think I did, in Canada a long time ago. But I'm not sure.
TNP has been to Indianapolis.
False-ish. I've driven through it and we may have stopped for gas, but I wouldn't have seen anything other than interstate and signs.
TNP has heard wolves in the wild howling.
So now they are just dirt-covered English people in fur pelts with credit cards.
Not that I can recall, and I think i'd remember that.
TNP has been to Burning Man.
No, I've read about it off and on for years, but I know just enough about it to think it probably wouldn't be my cup of tea.
TNP has been to Jacksonville.
False, I only know that the Jags play there.
TNP is looking forward to having Easter off.
In the land of the blind, the one-arm man is king.
Eh, I suppose so. I always have it off, being on a Sunday and all.
TNP has been to King's Island.
No. (I had it confused with Boblo Island, but I never went to either one.
TNP has been to Mackinac Island.
No, but I'd like to someday. Sounds like an interesting place.
TNP has been to Lincoln, Nebr.
