 Posted: 03/13/06 - 14:46 Post subject: Outdoing the 'rents...
Who was more wild in their youth: you or your 'rents???
I have it on excellent authority that the Bible toting, Bible verse sharing, sweet, tiny little gray haired gramma that is my mother had a very  youth.
She outdid me hands down!!!!
I think my in-laws did too.
Am I THE most boring person on this planet?

My mom was a goody two shoes. Me and the old man were probably neck and neck as far as misbehavior. My siblings were mere blips on the radar screen of hell-raising.

I'm probably somewhere in between. My dad used to belong to a local motorcycle gang. He say's it was a motorcycle "club" but he's full of crap.  As a teenager my mom stole her dad's car and drove to her grandparents house in Indianapolis.

Different times call for different measures. I'd say I out-did them for the sheer fact of what is 'accepted behavior' these days as opposed to back then.

Wild was banned in Wobegon back in the '40s.
/it's always been more fun to point fingers and laugh at the stupid overrated stuff other people called being wild.

Mine is even accounting for that.
Either I have blocked out a lot of stuff or I was just BORING.

My parents weren't nuts when they were growing up, so it wasn't that tough to surpass them.
But I had nothing on my sisters. My oldest sister and a friend of hers faked a kidnapping in front of Green Bay's largest department store (right in the downtown area). It made the papers, and got the FBI involved. Realz.
