1. Ca '71, I was driving my '64 Malibu on Little Tujunga Canyon road at something above the posted speed limit. I went into a curve posted for 10 MPH at about 30 MPH, and slid to the edge of the road on the opposite side. I didn't teeter over like in a B-movie, but I was right there at the edge. 500 foot+ sheer drop. 
2. In '74, in the US Navy I had a mis-diagnosed ruptured appendix. I didn't die, (surprise!) and it was taken out 6 weeks later.
3. In '96, I had an intestinal blockage due to swelling from the flu and scar tissue from the above-mentioned appendicitis. I lost 30 pounds in that go-round, in three weeks.

If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
