32, and my biggest one was 10, because I don't think Tupac is still alive. So I guess the suburbs put a tiny bit of hood in me.

Now we have two, both Home Ice Cream (which ring a bell- ding ding!), and Mr. Softy who plays an old rockabilly piano version of "When the Red Red Robin goes bob bob bobbin' along"

A surprising 134 for the old white guy. Most of the stuff on the list we did growing up in rural central Florida. Don't know if it really makes me "hood" or not, but I had a blast growing up. (And BTW, I did get away from the cops when they chased us for throwing cattails at the windshields of the truckers from the overpass).
