I'm old, so I have quite a few memorable moments - really too many to list here. The most exhilarating, personally, was taking off on my fist solo at Ford Island on Oahu - going down that runway at 90mph steering with the rudder pedals and lifting off. Those are do or die moments. Another would be the first time our boot camp platoon sang the Marine Corps Hymn in unison while jogging - I had always dreamed of becoming a Marine - even as a little boy. Marrying my wife, Sami, was the most memorable.
 
With my 2 kids I'm experiencing them all the time. From the moment they were born, to the first time they talked, walked, etc. Some of the best have been when my daughter(3) has actually helped me with hardware. She knows what everything is, but still has a hard time saying a few things. Yesterday my wife came in and asked me what we were doing and she stood up and yelled "The motherboard is fried, gosh!" But really I was just replacing my power supply :) Guess she heard me say that before.

That is funny:) I hope when I have kids that they like computer as much as me and do stuff like that. She is going to be very smart.

My most memorable moment was when I was 11 years old and open the computer the first time seeing all those wires, motherboard etc.. I knew from that point on that I was going to do something with computers. It change my life for the good. Besides computer moments the most memorable would be when I got chase by a demon/ghost when I was 13 years old. The scream it made was beyond anything I can describe. From that point on I look at the world in a different way then the average human does. It kind of open my world to the unexplained and I started to read a lot about ghosts,aliens etc..

Imagine this story:
Another moment in my life that I will never forget is when I was 3 or 4 years old and I was at my mom's business. I was playing outside in the back going to the river/stream and I had to go through tall grass to get there. As I went through the grass a bull snake 6 feet in length wrap around my leg and then went straight for my face. The fangs on the snake were like 2-3 inches or at least look that big because I was so small. Right before the snake was going to bite my face my mom came outside saw what was going on and ran right towards me and save me. From that day forth I hate snakes and am terrified on them.
 
My most memorible moment was taking first place in Payroll accounting at Business Professional of America for the State of Michigan my senior year.

The second was finding out I took first place with a perfect score and it had never been done in the history of the organization. :)

I had to wait a whole year to take the damn test over from messing up my junior year. It ate at me for a whole year and then I kicked its butt. I then went on to take 13th in the nation and help get the CEO of BPA fired at the time for doing a crappy job. How you miss the biweekly income tax tables and include all the rest of the tables when the only one question on the whole test that needs them and it was biweekly. How I would of loved to be able to take that National test over again.

I can watch them on animal planet but everytime I see one I almost jump. I am the same way as she is. I told my friends if they ever did a prank on me with snakes I would go crazy on them. No one done it yet :devil: thank god

PS I seriously think snakes are evil. I have never heard from anybody else or a story that is related to me. What I don't understand is why that snake did that. Bull snakes aren't deadly and I don't think he was doing it to eat me. That always puzzle me.

They say snakes are the creature of the devil. I believe it. I use to live in the south and they are every where. Now I live in this coled Michigan hell but there isn't snakes every where.

Actually, the devil convience Eve to take the apple. when Adam asked where the apple came from Eve lied and gave the apple to Adam. This is when God found out and I forget how it ends. I think he punishes them? Anyways, the first part is correct :)
 
my most memorable is the time my first crush said that she loves me too. I;m really happy that time, and yeah we become boyfriend and girlfriend it was really nice ^^
 
Made me think back to the fourth grade when my first girlfriend told me she loved me. Wow! She used to live next door to my Grandma and we'd always ride bikes or do things together. Don't know where she is today.
 
There are just so many memorable moments in my life. Probably some of the best would be me and my girlfriend's 5th anniversary, the day I tried to zip line and when I got my first job.

You tried to zip line? What happened? I did a version of zip lining at Schofield Barracks on Oahu - no harness, no helmet - just held on and dropped off into a small lake halfway across - swam back and did that all day.
 
My most memorable moment is when I went bungie jumping in wisconsin dells...That was the best rush I have ever had. Just an amazing thrill, everyone should try it alteast once in their life.
 
Bungie jumping is one thing I've never tried. I'm afraid my feet would POP off. I can just imagine the rush.
