Well, this is the story I would like to tell. When I was a new freshman, I used to walk home through Garfield Park down Pleasant Run Parkway. Each afternoon the school bus would go that route as well. You all know how 14 year-old boys are sometimes brainless. Well, this group of fourteen year-old boys thought it would be funny to flip me off each afternoon. It was not funny to me as you can well imagine. Well, since 14 year-old girls also are sometimes brainless, I flipped them off one afternoon as well. They got such a kick out of that and continued each afternoon until I had finally had it, and then I picked up a rock and I chucked that thing so far, I hit the bus.
The next day, in home room, Larry Seabolt turned around and told me that they got in trouble because the window was broken. My mouth fell and I just visualized getting kicked out of school, going to jail, all of it. I asked him if they told the bus driver and he said no. Talk about "Oh, What a Relief it Was". and it wasn't Alka Seltzer. But, the boys never flipped me off again. And Larry Seabolt whever you are, "thank you so much for not snitching". However, it was your fault in the first place.
