He told me about this and I thought it was just one of those sociological experiments he's always fantasizing about doing. Years later, I find out from my step mom that he actually DID this one. She was with him. And she was mortified.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes when I'm up high, I wonder what it would be like to just let myself flop over the edge. Then I get all vertigo-y and wonder WHY I always think these thoughts. I guess now I know. And I can say I'm saner than my dad.
