It seemed like a good ideal at the time...

The question has been asked and needs to be answered:

So, you all know the type in high school, the "Jock". The Jocks ran my school like so many school around the country. And, of course, football players topped that heirarchy of the teen stratusphere. And this might come as a huge surprise to most, but I played Football. I had social responsibilities to up hold and order to maintain on campus.

You might say we were the police, the law and order of the school. We patrolled the halls with an iron fist. The stoners stayed well behaved. The nerds were well protected in exchange for homework. Life was good.

Then one sunny spring day a nice little "Miss Gloria Steinem wanna be," who wrote for the school paper, decides to write a story questioning the authority of the Football team. In this situation, most people would of course write a rebuttal. And this is exactly what we would have done, had any of us on the Football team been able to write. No luck on this one.


However, we HAD to do something to maintain our leadership in the school and send a strong message to anyone fool enough to take on the "law" of the school. We decided that a public show was needed to set things straight.

On a very nice and sunny spring day, a day that was not too hot nor cold, but just right. We took little "Miss Gloria Steinem wanna be" from the tennis courts, where she had PE, and escorted her to the flag pole at the front of the school. Now our intent was just to duct tape her hands behind her, leaving her wrapped around the flag pole for everyone to see. But, little "Miss Gloria Steinem wanna be" just would not hold still, she was jumping around, hitting her head on the pole, and trying to kick us. Overall, just not being very nice at the moment - or safe. We did the only thing that seemed right at the time, cut her loose, noooooo. We pre-wrapped and bound her from head to her toes. Now she could not hurt herself. We were a very caring group of guys. Did I mention that we did pre-wrap? Nice I'm telling you, nice to a fault we were.

We left her there for about 20-30 minutes before the school vice principal looked out his window and went and cut her loose.

{Cut to the principle office the next day} Little "Miss Gloria Steinem wanna be" and her mother were rather upset. There was yelling of removal from school, community service, or both. However, the father thought it was very funny and being a former Football player himself, said it was all in fun and games and she had it coming anyway. Yes, rural town. But you got that part already - right.

Moral of the story, 10 hours of community service was so well worth it...

this is where you all understand the divine intervention of WC having 2 daughters, especially THESE two!

And, of course, getting stuck with me to influence them! LOL!

Can you even IMAGINE this today? POLICE would be called, charges pressed, suspension from school, probably even call it "sexual harassment" of some form or another.... a huge OUTRAGE.

... gosh I wish it was still 'back then'.

So, what car would you buy your kid???

There seems to be a general discussion running rampant around here about what type of car you should by a kid. And when said car should appear around the house. As I only have 4 years to pull this off, better start now. Things to consider before buying the car: 1. DD must complete 12 hours of flight time before taking test for permit. 2. Complete at least one driving school, Skip Barber , Bondurant Racing School , and so on. 3. DD must be able to change a tire, change the oil, do basic maintance on the car. I would like them to be able to strip down an engine and do a rebuild , however that may be just to much at this point. 4.DD must understand that I will not under any circumstance have or allow a pink car to park in front of my house. Cars come in four colors only, Red, Blue, Black, and British Racing Green. 5. Just what is the perfect Horse power to weight ratio? 6. Only one passenger in the car at a time. This is a good argument for a older British sports car that only has two s...

When do you take a Vacation?

I don't really take vacations, instead I take a lot of small trips with my family. I put the two little rodents in the back and we drive and enjoy time with each other. Although no one in the family is a road warrior like me, they do enjoy the destinations. I have not taken any days off this year and will take my "Vacation time" in December and have fun with the rodents. I guess I will never understand someone who needs to leave the kids with the Grandparents and go away for two weeks to some place expensive for a break. I mean, shouldn't you home life and family be where you want to go when you need a break. However, I do understand that this does not apply to my MIL....not going there.....not going there........We teach our kids to live and breathe in this world, don't do that, don't do this. But, do we ever teach our kids to have fun. Does anyone ever say do this, do that, or run wild and have fun? Next time you are driving down the road and you pass one of...

Today was a good day..

I'm flying home today from Phoenix, AZ. First good thing: I was moved from my favorite seat in coach to a window seat in first class. Second thing: The guy sitting next to me did not want to talk and left me alone on the flight. Third thing: The flight was smooth and on time. Fourth thing: I'm walking out of the gate area at the airport when a TSA guy calls me over and ask me if I wanted an item, because if not he was going to throw it away. And you know it would be darn shame to throw out a nice bottle of...... Yes, that is correct, a nice 750ml bottle of Sauza Tres Generaciones 100% Puro De Agave Tequila. I'm now very...very ........tanked. Thank you TSA. I'm a 40% by volume Woodchuck.
