Bragging Rights

Everyone is invited to brag, with sentences that begin, "I have learned to.., " "I own my own..", "I can..", or "I went ahead and..."

I'll start in the comment section.

Comments:
I not only own my own heavy-duty, extra-long jumper cables. I also know how to use them, and have helped other people get their cars started.
 
My middle child talked her way into precalculus as a way to add interest to a dull semester.
 
Brag on yourself, sporc!! If we start bragging on our kids, then I will win.
 
i started over my career at almost 40 in county not known for embracing outsiders despite mottoes to the contrary. i am the first public defender ever elected president of the georgia association of criminal defense lawyers, but hopefully not the last.:)with the help of larry walker, i convinced first the legislature and then the georgia supreme court to allow third year practice interns in pd offices.
 
Yay, Barely!! (Particularly since so many people don't seem to believe that the accused are supposed to be defended, and prosecutors get most of the glory.)
 
I used Word, and nothing else, to make a room map of the leading conference hotel in Kentucky. It's a table, with cells of differing sizes, and it's much better than the diagram the hotel itself offers to its guests. (It took me about six hours, at least half after midnight. I also brag that I am obsessive enough to do something that minor for that long.)
 
Astonishing!
You were probably a creator of Byzantine mosaics in an earlier incarnation.

I know a preposterous amount of poetry by heart.
 
Brief change of subject -- Everybody be sure to read Barely's and Endub's take on the four daughters in the Sargent painting.
 
I know who played Lily Munster on TV.
 
I shared a news tip today and did not reveal the source. Nobody asked for the source, but I was prepared to stand my ground all the way to jail, because that's just the kind of journalist I am. I would sit in jail for MONTHS before I would tell even a JUDGE who told me that the mayor allegedly got a bunch of calls objecting to the dedication of the Houston County part of I-75 to the memory of Coach Eric Staples. I won't tell anybody who the source was ever until the person who told me is deceased. Don't even ask.
 
and i would bring you snacks to the jail should you ever reside there. i would even try to make those muffin things for you and try to get the county commission to name some road after YOU because far too many people take their profession seriously.
 
Thanks, but could you get somebody else to ask the commissioners?
 
Muffin things?
 
your health muffins. i would try to make them without the snickers and bring them to you in jail. there isn't supposed to be any food brought in from the outside, but i could get the nurses to say you needed them for health reasons. i can't believe you don't think i should be the one to ask the commissioners to name a road for you. i've convinced them not to fire me on more than one occasion.:):) also i meant don't take seriously. i'm blogging so fast i'm leaving out words now.:)
