Geeky things you did when you were a kid
by DanTheMan in

we were a very geeky bunch of late 70's-early 80's suburban american white boys in my neighborhood where i grew up.. but my all time favorite one that makes me laugh every time i think about it, was how we rigged up parachutes to our bikes using twine and trash bags.

we would ride down the street as fast as we could, and then let the parachute out, which was tied to the end of our banana seat.

we thought we were cool funny car racers.. another one was inventing a previously unheard of cuss word that we could use around adults while winking at each other and giggling.

that always gets your attention, huh.

ok, i'm watching the "o'reilly factor", they just aired the case of two hs students who engaged in oral sex on a bus in silverlakes maryland while several other students cheered them on and the bus driver did nothing.

the principal of the school system didn't inform the school board until after the local newspaper broke the story and he refuses to say how the students will be punished.
