I was a bit of a hooligan in high school.
We would put toilets on people’s lawns or potatoes in mufflers. We put a potato in a guys muffler before lunch when he was going on a date with a girl. It built up so much pressure that it shot out and dented a Honda. We were pretty proud of that.
We stole a lot of ducks in high school from the park. There was duck problem, like there was sign that said don’t drop off your ducks, and we would take them to school and one time we put a duck in a box and put it on a kids doorstep. He was frustrated with that. We took the duck back. Another time, we went and bought a duck from a man in Salt Lake. We were seniors and we pretended to be a married couple who just wanted to buy a duck first instead of a kid. So we told these people this duck is going to a great home and we are ready for this and we bought the duck. He doesn’t speak much english, and he gives us the duck. We released him later into the pond with his duck friends they were never harmed.
Alternate: I've been skiing since I was little. My dad taught me. There was this rope he would use. I would ski in front of him, he would call me a kamikaze. I had a leash, not like a monkey backpack you would see in the airport, but just a rope. It's something I'm good at. Even if I don’t ski for a couple years I can go and pull it back together.
I'm a patient and a hospital worker. I had cancer a couple years ago and I had to come back from it and it was hard. I want people to remember as one tough son of a bitch
