		<description>1.  Years ago, before anyone ever knew the term, I used to yell &quot;Jyhad&quot; at the top of my lungs to anyone who had wronged me in some minor way but failed to apologize.  I once did this in my school cafeteria when someone bumped me in the back with their tray.  The entire place went dead silent.

2.  Once, in college, I asked a friend of mine this question:  &quot;If you have sex with a hand puppet, but she&#039;s only 15...  is it considered statutory rape?&quot;

Now, that was funny, and we all got a laugh, but here&#039;s the chaos part.  I then proceeded to tell everyone I knew to ask him the very same question, and to tell all of their friends to do the same thing.  He was being asked that question almost constantly for several days.</description>

		<description>Where to start, there are so many...Stealing a case of quarts from a brewery, spending the night under a tree during a tornado storm while tripping, walking up Boullion Butte and down in an afternoon, replacing the little papers under the plastic keyboard protecters at work with little drawings, driving across the badlands,not on the road, in a Plymouth Duster,streaking my own house on a snowy night in December,seeing Lou Reed on 2 consecutive nights in Houston and Omaha,same seats(front row),same clothes, he kept looking at us like he ate something funny,coming home from a night on the town,turned onto the railroad tracks by mistake and just managed to exit the car before got hit like a tiddly wink by  a train, I could go on and on......but need I say more? The madness never ends, but sometimes the parties do!</description>

		<description>Hmmmmmmm.  I&#039;ve got a couple here.  I taught a friends&#039; prissy girly girls to stamp water puddles in the rain on the way to a block party.  That was fun.  They were so scandalized.  Later in the same day I taught the neighborhood children to make mud pies and witches brew (out of dirty rainwater, bugs &amp; weeds).  Sheesh!  City kids miss out on so much these days, unless they have a subversive aunty.

And of course,  way back in the 70&#039;s,  I hitchhiked from Dickinson, ND to Minneapolis, MN then to Omaha, NE and back over spring break with a fellow student (drug dealer,  who knew?) and told the parents I got a ride from a friend. 

I really need this prize because I have no sense of direction while in Omaha (other places I am ok, why is that?) and I have wanted a compass &amp; map bag since forever.   The gernade would be way cool too.</description>

		<description>The most chaos I&#039;ve ever spread was from me breaking the chain in all those chain emails that I&#039;ve received.  Think of all the kittens, puppies, children, and the elderly that have suffered harm as a result!</description>

		<description>&quot;BEEN CHASED ACROSS COUNTRIES WHY TRYING TO REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE?&quot;

Yes, but only in an existential kind of way. Like how other people try to find themselves. You know, &quot;Who are we, where are we going, why are these people trying to kill me?&quot; That kind of thing.</description>

		<description>That picture reminds me of the time I visited a Czech antique shop years ago.  I was so uncomfortable I probably bought a fifth of his store. :)</description>
