What was your greatest epiphany?


That one shining moment when everything first came together. When the heavens opened up, the clouds parted, the sun shone, and the angels began to sing.

For me, it was hearing music played through tubes for the first time, after a lifetime in the solid state wilderness. Even my wife came into the room and noticed how much better the music sounded. Carole King never sounded so good.

That budweiser is horrible beer. College was a steady diet of genesee, piels and red,white&blue (16oz of course). On the rare occasion, when we could afford it, we'd sit back and enjoy/savor some budweiser. I thought it was the best until a friend started working at Holmes&Watson in Troy, NY. A great little bar with a fantastic selection. Our first night there he served us Bass, New Castle, Sam Smiths, Ass Bock, MacEwen's, Mackeson Stout...
My god, my god, what have I done? I'd been drinking piss.
In high school during the bus ride going to a state playoff game in baseball.I KNEW it was going to be a big day for me.I don`t remember the 45 minute bus ride because I was defintely in another zone or place.We were facing one of the best pitching prospects on the East coast (who later was drafted in the first round)and I was the lead-off batter.The very first pich was a fast ball down the middle and it looked like the size of a grapefruit.I hit this ball dead center field,well over the 400 feet sign that was on the fence.The next time I came to bat,he threw me a first pitch curve ball that I promptly hit 350 feet over the right field wall.The third time up,he threw a fast ball right at my head just missing me but dropping me to the ground.I got up,dusted myself off,then turned to the catcher and dared him to call for another fast ball.Well it came,and it was hit over the right field wall for my third home-run of the day.To make a long story short...I went 5 for 5 with 3 homeruns,a triple and a double,with 5 runs scored,and 9 runs batted in.I knew beforehand that something special was going to happen that day.People still to this day,27 years later,come up to me and say,"That ball you hit over the center field wall was the longest home-run they have ever seen a high-school player hit".I consider my day a blessing from an outside source because at this time in high school..I stood 5'3 and weighed 120 LBS.
The day I find out that you can actually go up to a girl and talk to her without being slapped right away. That happened a little bit later, but stil, a small step for mankind, but a great step for me!
