I'm doing 38 things
It’s easier than you think – something about the specific heat of materials, blah blah. Anyway, we did the research and it seemed doable, so we did it. We went to a friend’s place in the country and built a big bonfire, then let it die down until there was a path of coals between the flames. We did our best to hypnotize each other first, saying, “as long as I follow the man in front of me, I’m safe,” and “cool moss, cool moss!” And then we went – about three or four fast steps, a great rush of accomplishment and camaraderie, and a few blisters the next day. :)
