I so want to do this...

Many people seem to think that Europe's TV is more entertaining than what we Americans get to watch. I think there's a case in point from the BBC's show Top Gear.
If I had the time and unlimited resources, I would so do this on my own. Enjoy.

I've no idea what game this is, but here goes...
Apparently I've been tagged by JRoosh. I've never heard of this game before now, but I think the rules are that you have to list at least 5 little-known facts about yourself. Here goes...
1. I have never been "dumped" by a girlfriend. (albeit, I haven't had very many...)
2. During high school, I ate a peanut butter and marshmallow creme sandwich EVERY day for lunch.
3. I have never sat on or ridden a real horse.
4. When I was 16, I got out of a speeding ticket because I was wearing a hot pink dress shirt and printed tie with burgers, soda pop, and french fries on it. The officer asked where I was going, and I said I was running late for work at the local grocery store (true) and he let me off with a warning. Even more amazing was that several of my friends all got tickets in the same area...
5. If I could learn an instrument, I'd want to play the drum set.
6. For "Career Day" during spirit week in high school, I went as a McDonald's burger flipper. (I previously had worked there 2 weeks, and put in my 2 weeks notice. I NEVER wanted to work there, but my mom forced me to get a job. The uniform was used and REAKED of fat and grease - and the smell NEVER washed out...) So glad that aspiration never worked out...

I'm so Proud of Him...
[sniff]
I've shared that one of my passions is Arsenal Football Club, but few things I can think of could give me more pride than seeing the same passion develop in my son.
[drip]
My friend from work, Mat, knows about my fever for Arsenal, so he gave me a team flag as a nice gift during my last trip to St. Louis. [sniff] When I got home, I showed the flag to Karsten, and his jaw dropped open. He asked what I was going to do with it - and I could tell he wanted it for himself. I didn't have the heart to say no, so I said I'd put it up on the wall in his bedroom.
[drip] So above is a picture of K showing off the Arsenal colors proudly. When you see him next, be sure to ask him how Arsenal is doing in the League. He knows...
