I am the first person to discover the asparagus beetle in my county. About ten years ago, I walked past Mary Tyler Moore and exchanged smiles on the Antietam battlefield.

I`m sure 99% of ya`ll can do better.

I dated a girl that scored 1600 on her SAT.

Does that count?

A trophy/prize you can never accept (at least and be worthy of it)!

I tend to become famous for geek accomplishments...

I read ordinary books and newspapers when I was three.

Second place in a nationwide news quiz competition between junior high schoolers... my mother keeps a photo of me with the queen at the award ceremony...

... and I scored the highest possible result on the Swedish SATs as well, which pretty much ensured eternal geekhood in the eyes of my classmates...

I'm the official world champion in a vector movement-based podracing minature game which is so obscure that it doesn't even have a name, after a statistically nearly impossible streak of luck with the dice.

Other than that? The literal translation of a popular Swedish term for personal accounts of fame by proxy is "I met Lassie". I know a guy who knew John Grisham before he became famous. My sister's best friend's sister was a hottie teen actress who all my friends had a crush on back in high school... (well OK I did too... playing cool answering the phone when she called looking for her sister proved challenging... I was 13, what can I say)

I aspire to break the barstool land-speed record at the
Bonneville Salt Flats. The current record is about 45 mph.
