zipline

A sport where people zip from a starting point to the landing; they're harnessed to the line & there's bicycle~like handles to hold onto & a cog attached to the line; ensuring their safety. It's a high~adrenaline sport!

I have to go zipline, I really love daring sports & adrenaline rushes!

night creature

Someone who's perpetually awake at night & sleeps during the day. They prefer the night over the day & are mystical people.

I think I'm a night creature because I was born at 4 am & have always greatly preferred the night to the day.

hobos, tramps, & bums

Amongst the homeless, there's a hierarchy~hobos will work, tramps only if they feel like it, & bums, not at all, ever.

I've met lots of hobos, tramps, & bums & was very surprised that they classify themselves differently!

cloverleaf

A series of on~ramps & off~ramps of a freeway that look like a 4~leaf clover.

When we took a wrong turn on the freeway in Houston, it took us an hour to go thru all the cloverleaf on~ramps & off~ramps to get back to where we needed to be!
