Didn't finish high school. A person was shocked that I'd never (formally) studied chemistry.

You wouldn't want to if there's rooster nearby! He'd go after you and peck you. Happened to me once, years ago, in Greece.I admit as well, I've never petted a chicken.
My limited experience - petting is fine but they don't like to be shampoo'd (helped my daughter shampoo her 4H gorgeous show rooster once).

I haven't been to one, either. Don't find that unusual.

I didn't go to my university graduation. After all the time, trouble, and money it cost me, I figured the least they could do was mail the paper to me.

Did that once in Girl Scouts, and didn't sleep at all. The ground was very hard and cold, and the fear of bears (they told bear stories around the campfire) kept me up at night.

Did someone say pet a chicken ?
When I was a pup I can remember my mama hollering at me across the supper table, "stop playing with your food !"........so I don't.

I thought about it when I got my BS. Jack Ford, Gerald Ford's son was in the class and Ford was president and spoke at the graduation. Had I been closer I would have gone - now I regret not doing it.
It was interesting going to school with Ford's son. When we started his father was "just" a congressman from Michigan, no one paid much attention. That all changed when he first became vice and then President. Had a class with Jack at that time, we had secret service people in the class and at the doors. Lots of them on campus, kind of a sport to see how long it took to identify the undercover ones. Not too hard...
I use his first name. However, though we had classes together I am pretty sure he never knew who I was. I didn't know who he was until his father became Vice Pres.

I lived in NYC and never went into the Empire State Building nor the Twin Towers.
Never visited the NY Library nor Grant's Tomb.
Never even thought about visiting the U.N. nor Ellis Island.
Most of the above, I've walked past or boated past many, many times, but weren't something I was interested in.

Roosters take their hen protection job seriously. At DW's parents house in Vermont the rooster tried to come up behind me a couple times. Later he was seen chasing a couple boys down the street. Next time I saw him he was in the cook pot.
I've never successfully completed a summersault
Oh, I've done a few, but only by accident

Only been to NYC a very few times. However once it was for several days of meetings in the Twin Towers, pretty high up, but I don't recall which tower or the floor. Stayed the week in the Marriott in the towers. Made 9/11 even more eerie.
I was able to contact one of the people I met with who had an office in the towers. All the people I met got out, thankfully.

Well I think I have, if you can count the pieces over time.
Fell down backwards, rolled over, and landed on my feet, just not all in the same event.

It would seem half the uk women have visited NYC.. mainly at Christmas and mainly for shopping... ( including my DD)... I have never... so that's unusual for a British woman
I've also never visted the second most popular place in the USA for British tourists .. Disneyland/world
