Okay, off topic, but reminded of a story I had to share:
One summer, I got to our football facilities early. All the assistants were slated to come in a couple of hours later. I did some maintenance stuff, trying to make our locker room look better. I slung a little paint and repaired something that involved superglue.
I then sat down and began watching some film of our team drill from the day before. Had my hand on my face in consternation. When I removed my hand (or tried to), I realized I had superglued my right pointer finger to my forehead.
I mean, I can't get it loose. When I pulled, it felt as if the skin on my forehead was going to tear before the bond did.
Now, I'm in a panic. Not because I had my finger stuck to my forehead, but because of the apocalyptic ribbing I'd have to endure if they caught me.
One was Doug Newton, former head coach at Pattonville and a longtime DC at PW North, the other was Dan Hoehn, who will be the superintendent at Excelsior next year. Both fine men, by the way.
So I slowly, ever-so-grudgingly, get this finger off my head...Just in time, too.
They both instantly noticed the inflamed red spot on my head and asked if I was okay. I played stupid and claimed I didn't know what they were referring to.
Okay, guys, now you know...
After 22 years, I finally came clean as to why I had that red abrasion for 4 days.
