Subject: Just For Fun
Message: For the posters here post something not many people know about you. Ok, as for me I met my hubby when he threw me off a cliff. Actually it was rappelling (I did those crazy things too in my younger years) at West Point but now my family would flash before my eyes if I did it now! YIKES.

Message: When I was in high school, in the marching band, we were bored one day after a competition and some of us were sitting around the band room waiting for our rides home. Soooooooo, some of 'us' who will remain unnamed took the toilet out of the girls bathroom, hoisted it onto the roof of the bandroom, took some clothes and stuffed them with newspaper to make a dummy then positioned said dummy on said toilet, reading the remaining pages of said newspaper. The bandroom faced the front of the school and come Monday morning when the bus dropped off the riders, they got a special surprise....

Message: When I was a child, I had dreams of becoming a famous ballerina! I studied dance for 14 years but I found that drums were more fun and they drove my poor folks wild......

Message: Wow. I wanted to be a ballerina but the teacher said I was too fat and wouldn't let me dance. I also wanted to play drums but my parents vetoed it. Can't imagine why! lol
I met my husband on a blind date at the end of April. He was in the Navy stationed in Norfolk and I lived near Pittsburgh. We only saw each other 3 times before we got married in July. That was 27 yrs ago.

Message: VALinda, I can relate - my husband were both in the Marine Corps and stationed at NAS Atlanta. I met him on May 13 and we got married on July 14 of the same year. That was 25 years, 3 children and 6 grandchildren ago.
Yep, the toilet trick was absolutely hilarious.
I remember my Dad telling us of a story about a man he worked for as a kid. The man was an old farmer and he had several kids that my dad went to school with working on the farm doing "odds and ends". The man was not a nice man. My dad said that one night after they all were supposed to have gone home - they all disassembled the man's wagon - drug it to the top of his barn and then reassembled it. Imagine his suprise when he awoke the next morning to find his wagon on top of the barn. I laugh about that to this day every time I think about it.

Message: I had a roommate who said her father was involved in a prank at Halloween years ago. They loaded all of the outhouses in town on an empty rail car. Later that night CN hooked up that car and took it to Winnipeg. They had to make a special trip back to Wadena, Saskatchewan with evertone's outhouses!

Message: When I was in high school, Jack in the Box drivethrus had a big old Jack head as the speaker. One night after a football game, we decided to try and turn it backwards. So a few cars would take turns in the drive thru, order one thing like a coke, and someone else would be out trying to unbolt the Jack head. Well, lemme tell you... that head wasn't going anywhere. It's strange when I look back at the things we thought were funny. A local restaurant (during the same time) had this big giant cowboy statue standing out front and someone stole it. Sheesh.
(and it HONESTLY wasn't me that stole it... no idea who did it.)

Message: I didn't realize how many military people there are here. Hubby is retired military. Met him in college in ROTC. That was a long time ago too. July too for me but not the 14th. We had quite a few tours in Europe.
