What is the craziest thing you have ever done?
I've done a lot of crazy things in my time, and probably some not so smart things. Learning to make good decisions is a life-long process. On weekends, My high school friends and I would cross the U.S./Mexico boder and mingle in the city of Juarez. Unaware of the common language, people and culture minimized my personal safety. Fortunately, nothing ever happened to me or my friends. My guardian angel must have been working overtime.
