Well I was a late bloomer,
as a Freshman I was about 5' 5" 180
put this with the big spectacles I wore and a camp tuttle (think pine trees) t-shirt I showed up to football two-a-days in the summer before my freshman year and you get a large 17 year old remarking,
"HEY that kid looks like woodsy the owl,"
hence my nick name I still carry.

it was amusing to the older guys on said football team to hear me sing the woodsy the owl song 9 gve a hoot dont pollute) on the bus, who was I to argue.

all good natured fun, eh. well add to this that i did not really hang with the jock guys much. My buddys went skiing on the weekend (poorly) and played Dungeons & Dragons. Yes gaming freshman year.

so a sophmore decides to ride me, towel snapping, tittie twisters, wedgies, the whole nine.

once even gets my ass off the ground lifting me by my nipples,

ass hole.

I decide to wrestle. first match pinned in 37 seconds, impressive no?!?

so the years go on & puberty finally catchs hold of my sorry self & with some friends I discover the weight room. Junior year I am playin footbal @ 215 & wrestling @ 171, & winning mostly. I am about 5'9" by then.

Mr. prick begins to avoid me like the plague.
he graduates & hangs around (one of those guys)

so Sr year i am my curent height of 6', 235# wrestled heavy weight that year & even wrestling 275# doods take region & place 3rd in state. loose 3 matches all year.

So, I run into mr prick @ a party in the summer that year.
I am out a school & have been having safety meetings all day with friends.
Mr. Prick : Heey woodsy how you doin
me: ya know you were always such a prick to me in school
him: ya foolin around ya know, he hah he....
me: it was nt funny

I step towards him as menacingly as my stoned ass could & dood drops his beer & stumbles backward to fall on his ass.

me & my freinds ( a lot of the same kids I gamed with earlier) just laughed & laughed. he walked away after getting to his feet grumbling & left.
still see him around sometimes now that i moved back to SLC, & honestly I stil snicker

In the city or in the woods, help keep America looking good!

i was tiny, the juniors in my soccer coach's class named me Mr. Keebler. it stuck for four years.

In sixth grade, the last day of school was a picnic. Get to go and have fun, etc.
We are playing baseball and one of my best friends is playing Center and I'm playing right field. Kid hits a pop-up right between us, we both are going after it. POW!

I get three stiches in my head and Jesse lost two teeth, neither one of us remember the event, but I have it on tape somewhere. I have friends that remind me they also have it on tape.



I also fell down a flight of stairs the second day I was in High School, basically infront of the entire school before an assembly. Sometimes your feet grow faster than your body can compensate for.

In High School, I was long distance runner, yeah real cool guy. Our whole squad use to hang out all the time, and we were each other's friends. We were such nerds that all 10 guys on the squad were ranked in the top 20 of our class all through H.S. (class of 220)

First day of High School. Clearwater, FL.
We had just moved into town and I knew no one. I had a brand new 10-speed Kalkhoff road bike that I'd worked all summer for and rode to school. I was really proud of that bike.
I rolled up to the bike racks in the front of the school on day one. All the cool kids were out there smoking and getting reacquainted. In my quest to be cool, I began to dismount and stood on one pedal while cruising up to the racks. When I got right up to the racks, I inadvertently hit the front brake. I went straight over the bars and landed in front of the racks and the cools kids.
To add insult to injury, the bike was stolen about a month later.

I think you win, actually, I know you win. The figure skating took it, it's an amazing sport but the shit that kids dish out? Must have been tough.

Boy Scouts do not allow smoking and drinking while camping. Slowly drifted away......



edit.

Just remembered another fun one.
First soccer game of the season, I get kicked in the nuts hard enough to actually puke on this group of girls on the side line.
It was fantastic, my balls were wrapped around my ears and girlsa screaming. Nuts do not work like earmuffs BTW.

Everyone wanted to borrow my graphing calculator because it had all the cool games on it.

It was made easier by being able to tell people that were harrassing me that I was ranked 5th in the state. Good thing that they never figured out that there were only 7 guys in my age group.

Phew. That's good, because top three and you're guaranteed to be gay! At least that's how it was in men's diving.

Ten Speed???

[tuffy109]

i dunno about you, but after Quicksilver, all my friends wanted 10 Speeds.

edit: we didn't know what fixed gear bikes were at that point

So I was eating hummus the other night at Popodopolus, waiting for my kabob entree, when in walks this guy Zorbo that I know and he starts spraying Windex on the scab on my arm, saying it's a cure-all for this and that and....



Ooops. Thought it read pathetic Greek stories.

I used to be a skinny smart-mouth.

In high school I was a loner, not so much a geek.

So I was on my school's yearbook staff, right? Uber-dorky, but it was always during 6th period and it was a year-long class, so I skipped out early from school for 6 months of the year, and actually did work on the book for 2 months of the school year. Not too bad of a gig, eh? It gets better.

A lot of what we did was pore over pictures to actually put in the book, and man, there were a ton of god-awful pictures of our classmates. Girls on the swim team with THOs and cameltoes, guys with their jewels hanging out of their soccer shorts, stuck up bitches with their faces stuffed full of food, the homecoming queen with a boobie hanging out, and plenty of plumbers cracks and dangly boogers. We even found a picture of a girl in our homecoming court with what we suspected was a money shot on her blue dress.

We tried to get as many of those pictures in the yearbook as we could get away with.

I was in 4-H for about 8 years. Sheep club for first 6 and then pigs for last 2 years. Quit when I got to grade 10 or 11. But sheep club was really dorky. The pigs were cool though cause they fight and are kind of dangerous.

Kept it quiet from my friends that I was in 4-H till after grade 12. I would have parties at my house during grade 12 and would have to sneak out for 30 minutes to feed the pigs. Try doing that on Acid.

But is interesting now that I am a high school teacher. I do see a lot of the jock/geek relationships and try to stop some of the hazing I see.
