Okay. I'm going to try and top Raymaker's list below:
1) My father was a good and decent lawyer. To prove it - he died young.
2) I trained for "Cycle Canada 76" but my Mom wouldn't let me go because there were going to be men on the trip so I went on a French Immersion where I almost lost my virginity - twice! By accident, too! Those French guys have a different word for everything!
3) I suffer from an absurd fear of penury.
4) I once wrote a letter for a politician, let's call him... "NormaBob Rae", that he scribbled corrections all over so I reprinted my original version and used the signing machine. Okay, "once" is an estimate. But "a million times" would be an exaggeration.
5) My first concert was Gordon Lightfoot at Memorial Gardens in Sault Ste. Marie and he farted into the microphone so the audience could hear what a folk singer farting into a microphone sounded like.
6) Al Purdy kissed me on the cheek and wished me a safe journey home.
7) My photograph won a fellow student a photography award at U of T. The same photograph graced the walls of Malcolm's in Yorkville (hair salon) for several months because he was dating a hairdresser there - even though I'd got the cut at Sassoon's.
8) I coined the expression "roodiscroorama". It's what I do best. Coin expressions.
