Did you ever play on teeter-totters when you were a kid? I think that's what they're called. Those board like things that are balanced in the middle, one kid on each end, and as one kid goes up, the other kid goes down. Anyway, when I was a kid there was some teeter-totters in the yard at a nearby apartment complex, and there were some teeter-totters in the park behind my house. If you spend much time on these contraptions, you soon realize that simply going up and down is not very much fun. We'd often carry on in our activity as it was supposed to be, but, invariably, one of us would be sitting on the low end and looking up at our playmate. With an almost devilish grin, we'd hop off the teeter totter and send our good buddy crashing to the ground. Such wonderful childhood fun. Another activity that my brother and I took part in was shoplifting. We devised a clever way of hording candy from the checkout aisles at a local grocery store. What we'd do, is climb in under the conveyor belt cabinet and reach out and bring entire boxes of candy bars, etcetera in under the conveyor belt where we'd sit and eat away at our leisure. We never ever got caught, and we went through probably hundreds of dollars worth of candy. But we got greedy! Hope this helps rather than confuses you. -- -- There are several things that I will never be: * I will never be attracted to females. * I will never enjoy the company of others.
