Michael Cluff

Let's see. What have I done since HS? Well...
I met the President of the United States.
I went skydiving with some Cardinals cheerleaders.
I finally finished a novel that will be published in about 3 months.
I traveled to and hiked the Alps.
I sold off a successful start-up that will have me set for the rest of my life.
I was elected to the Chandler City Council.
(OK. I haven't done any of that stuff.)

I drove a Gray Honda that was named "Thumper" by Luke Johnson (it was called that because it would shake and thump uncontrollably at around 50mph).

One winter morning, I started it up and turned the heater on and went back inside the house. My sister was in a hurry and ran out the door, but briefly poked her head back in to tell me my car was on fire.

Alas, that was the end of "Thumper." I was going to scrap it for spare parts, but nothing was usable; I had to pay a mechanic to tow it away and give me a ride to school.
