25. Back in Minneapolis, I spun out twice on the way to home.
The street and intersection that you turn on going north into my neighbourhood is ALWAYS icy as hell in the winter, and I would routinely skid a little turning onto my block. I completely spun out twice.

Here's another weird story: My best friend and I when we were in high school were driving to an out-burban high school to take the ACT test one day. So after the test, we decided to drive home in a different direction, but we found out that the alternate route was a gravel road. Well, he was going a good 40 mph on the gravel road when we were making a sharp turn downhill (this was in the summer, BTW), and sure enough, we spun around three or four times. I was pissed and cursing at him the rest of the way to his house, but we were laughing about it at the end. He's still cool with me.
