Name The Single Biggest "Event" You've Been A Part Of!

Post: # 73176Unread post the wizard »

... what's the single biggest "thing" you've ever been involved in?

... was it your wedding? a major vacation? a big party of some variety like a high school reunion or a family reunion? family reunions can definitely be very big occasions, my ex-wife went to a few of those and TONS of her relatives showed up from all around ...

... the biggest event i've every been involved in was working at expo 86 which was a massive eight-month-long party of mammoth proportions!!! those from vancouver might remember it!!!

... if you were to name the biggest "event" that you've been involved in what would it be? :)

I'm not sure, nothing that big here that really mattered. I worked at the Kentucky Derby one year, and was part of a team picked to build the first Sport Track truck.
If it's the biggest moment that hit me in my life it was my dad passing, that hurt more than anything, and changed my whole world. .

I hope your doing well Wizard, yours sounds really interesting, mine was all not really fun.
I was excited to be chosen to travel to Detroit to build a prototype truck, but it didn't fan out in the end.

I didn't get to go because I was transferred to another plant because seniority, but it was good to have been chosen over so many others.
I guess getting on at Ford was a big event for me, it's one of the few jobs here that paid good at the time.
Another big event for me was this forum, it was just for testing, but a few great people came over to be with me :) how much better can you get.
I have to add my Nephews, and niece being born, they are the reason I'm still here.
Maybe I'm just getting into stuff I'm grateful for . :pardon:

I think the biggest events I was part of were state wide competitions in high school ... music and debate.

Debating was a natural fit for me because I love arguing. :teehe:

I'm quiet so I don't argue much unless online about stuff.

Many years ago I had a dream where I was flying upward surrounded by beautiful colors. I felt ecstatically happy, but then I woke up. I have always wanted to get back to that dream.

I have had dreams about working, and when I wake up, feel extremely exhausted.

Need to go back to sleep, and get a better rest. :laugh: :laugh:
I don't concern myself, with other peoples thoughts. They can think what they want, and grind it around in their head. I always get a good nights rest. They however, are exhausted, thinking about me. My trade mark, :laugh: :laugh:

Yeah I have done that, it really feels like you pull a double shift sometimes.
I have dreams like that a lot lately, I really miss working a lot, and wish I could go back.
I hate not being able, sitting around is killing me.
