One of my accomplishments that I am most proud of is:

Learning to read. Getting some education.

One thing I regret that I never got to explore:

Going to school. I couldn't sit still, I would get up and run out the backdoor and go to the back cove.

One of the ways I like to entertain guests was:

When I drank I used to hang out in the bars, I never brought anyone home.

I remember this embarrassing incident with a good friend:

I was working with my uncle Clarence at the clam shop, just a year after I married Frances, there was a guy came in there who looked just like Frances' father, so I walked up to him and said "Hi!" like I knew him, and it wasn't him, that was embarrassing.

This person helped to save my life:

I almost lost my foot one time, I had a boss one time named Lenny, he was a fish cutter, this big Canadian truckload of fish came up and it was backing up to the ramp where we unloaded the fish, there was a little board down there, my foot was down there, I thought the truck was stopped but it wasn't, Lenny pulled me out right before it crushed my foot.
