Me as an Egyptian teacher , after I had taught my class how to read and write in Arabic ,I asked them when they get home they must ask their parents to test them in reading and writing and if they succeeded they must be rewarded by having 5 pounds and they must tell their parents to buy them short stories to read them ,the next day a pupil's mother came and asked me where she can buy the stories. Thanks Allah.

Coolest... could also have been the stupidest. When I was in my early 20s on my way to New Zealand to visit friends, I was in Fiji, SCUBA diving for about a week. This is a very long story but the jist is that I met a Swiss sea captain/shipwright with a 72 foot, wooden, Polynesian-style sailing catamaran that he designed and built. We got to talking about sailing (I had grown up sailing and had some experience but nothing of this caliber) and he needed someone to help him crew the boat to New Zealand. I sailed around Fiji with him and a French Canadian girl for a few days and decided to cancel my plane ticket to New Zealand and sail there instead. It took 14 days because we hit some doldrums. We stopped off on a desert island filled with sea birds and saw some amazing things while snorkeling. One day, when the wind wasn't blowing, we jumped off the boat and swam with some whales. We sailed into the Bay of Islands and it turned out he was wanted by Interpol and I was questioned for several hours by customs before I was let go. I never found out what he was wanted for and he never displayed any shady behavior that I saw, but obviously it could have gone very badly. Still one of the most interesting people I've ever met and one of the coolest things I've done. Now I aspire to sail around the world with my husband, daughter and sister in law. So far the farthest we've gone on our own boat is from San Diego to Catalina Island (about 24 hours non stop).

I saved my Boyfriend's life with CPR. It is the only time I've ever had to use those skills but I'm glad I was certified because the knowledge came back to me and kicked right in. The EMT's that showed up said I had done it all perfectly!

During a 1980 tour with Roy Orbison, we were at Park West Club in Chicago. After Roy went back to the hotel, David Bowie came in. He was touring the Elephant Man and heard Roy was in town. I got to talk with Bowie over several drinks and had a great time. This will stay with me forever.

Back in the late 90s, there was a construction crane that toppled in Times Square, NYC. Police cordoned off all of times square to traffic to remove it safely. I was rollerblading to Central Park. I asked the officers if i could cut through and he let me pass. I did figure 8s, in an empty Times Square with all these NYPD Officers watching me behind the barricades. Once in a life time for anyone. this was pre 9-11...AWESOME!!

Another cool thing is I worked at Nintendo of America and lived next door to Christopher Rush, creator of the Black Lotus card for Magic: the Gathering. I actually was privileged to watch him create Metamorphosis and Mana Flare one night while taking calls beside him (he was a game play counselor back then before the card game took off.)
He used to play D&D at our apartment and he would share art with us that was to become the next set of MTG cards. We lost touch after leaving the state, but I was also privileged to reconnect with him several months before he passed.
