umm use the "enter" key every now and then... ALOT more will then bother to read it.
like this.
oops another new thought.
see broken up text is easier to read on computer screens.,

Other than the laws you broke(although I am glad that you say that you didn't drive), what made you feel good or "cool" about drinking? Is it the fact that you lose control of your faculties? The pain as your brain soaks in formaldhyde? Maybe the slurring is something chicks dig?
-
believe it or not Gadfly, when every fraction of a second of your life is perfectly on rails at 200mph, it's quite a satisfaction to let everything completely loose every now and then.
When normally everything is bliss, it's a nice change to make everything completely suck, momentarily, and be reminded that you really are quite happy with things as a whole, with having control of things, sucking or blowing...

Decent answer, certainly better than, "because everybody was, and we got squid-wasted, Dude".

Sounds like you could use a night on the town.

Well, to be honest, I get confused sometimes with drinking laws. An 18 year old can be drafted and sent off to war, but he can't have a beer. But given the choice between their license or beer, i'm sure they would choose their license.(they are more productive that way anyway)
-
JB i know man, i woulda done enter alot more , but i had to type fast.
As for the others, i think you missed the point, dont bother
posting if your gonna just tell me about the laws i broke, and that
im a clueless dolt, i have common sence, i know exactly which
laws i broke and everything else, of course i wouldnt drive after
ive been drinking, and you dont do it because it makes you
"cool" or anything like that, its a social thing, get togeather with
your buds, have afew beers whatever else, and just hangout
talk about girls, cars, jobs , stuff like that, and btw i dont see
story, the purpose of this was for stories, im sure most of you
hungout with your buds in high school and drank afew beers and
partied, if not, well then man that must have been a boring way
to spend them good years, another thing is, these are some of
the best years, i got plenty of time to drink later when im old,
rightnow im young the girls are beautiful and lifes great. Anyways
back to the point, if anyones got any good stories about hangin
with your buddies POST EM! I think itll be some good laughs all in
all.(There easy for everyone to read, and fellas, id have to say
about 85% of my high school drinks now and again and goes to
parties occasionally, relaxing, lets you loosen up and bit, hell i
dont need to tell you what alcohol does, tons of people in this
drink all the time.)

It is more fun to stay sober around a bunch of drunks and laugh AT them instead of with them.

about 5-6 of us with nothing to do at 3am on the center 'plaza' of a small countryside village in rural France... very very drunk..
we're walking around shooting the watermelon around a bend of the road that goes around the church cemetary, high walls on both side, and only a bit of bad lighting from an old light post.
Out of nowhere, a car stops next to us; we immediately smell the pot, and through the music we hear a guy at the opposite side of the car saying rather enthusiastically
get out! get out!
They get out; we're still frozen in turpor, them getting out fast but awkward, two of them with bats and one with a chain. One of us at the front of the bunch starts running like a rabbit with everyone else following with a second.
All but two of the guys in the car chased us through the backyards and church cemetary, and a few of us through the streets with their car for the next half hour almost.
None of us got caught, somehow, and we never found out who they were.
Peak adrenaline for me was having the car run over a pile of wooden boxes I'd just climbed from into a backyard wall.
and the moral of the story is the french always run, even before they know they're surrendering, it borders on pre-cognition.

When I was 16, some buddies and I built an E-Z hut (8 x 8') out in the woods...lined with shag carpet. We even had an electric fan running from a 200 ft. extension cord plugged into the neighboring apartments' outlet. That was our clubhouse.
We decided to add on to the hut...a 10 x 14' room, complete with a 5 x 5 x 5' wine cellar. At one point during the construction process, we needed more lumber, so we dismantled a nearby treehouse (a nice one too, about 14 ft up in the air.)
About two weeks later our hut burned up. There was a newspaper article where it described 90 ft flames from a kid's playhouse back of the so and so apartments.
When the dump truck was backing up to load the debris after the fire, one of its double wheels landed in the pit we had dug, and it got stuck...
I heard it was a hell of an ordeal to get it out.:D

Moot just gave a perfect example of what were lookin for, good
story moot, Damn , sounds alil scarey though, glad ive never had
anything like that happen to me!:D
-
lmao Leslie, good story also, we also got club type thing, we built
it in this canyon close by, not near as good sounding as yours,
ours is circular about 7ft each way. and dug down into the dirt
about 4ft, so it gives us about 9ft total in height, if you can
picture those african huts made of thorn brush and stick, logs
stuff like that, it looks exactly like one of those, we call it
"The Bungalow" :D fun times in that place.
-
I'm glad you like it MaddDog. I'm a Confederate, at least in heart. I started college not long after that. I went to Auburn. War Eagle!!!

In Weston connecticut, about 2 months after getting my pilot's license I was approached by the cross country capt to see if I was going to be flying that afternoon.
I answered in the affirmitive, gave him a VHF handheld, the frq and a time I would be over. I tookoff and arrived over the school at around 2:30 in a Mooney 201 staying around 700-1000 agl.
My idiot friend rob said eventually "Hey Wolf, go in low." So in youthful exhuberence I disappeared behind the hill, pushed the prop and throttle up. Little did I know it was team pictures day and not some 1/2 bellybutton practice, so what should've been 2 dozzen turned out to be around 200-300 people. All said and done, they didn't know I was there until I was on top of them - I arrived about 15ft above the treetops just shy of 200 mph, with everyone on the deck.
"Hit the deck troops!"
Of course my idiot friend rob who was a save bellybutton was standing next to a cop with radio in hand - it didn't take a great stretch to figure out what was going on. But it did take the FAA 6 months to issue a 90 day suspention, but I also turned myself in when they were questioning all of my friends.
Flying for 10 years (trained since age 12) does a lot to you - i'm 22 now, I was 17 then and have seen a lot of friends killed during my career. And the cocky kid that I was then has long since been humbled - and survives by teaching young kids like I was exactly what not to do.

Munich, Germany. Hofbrauhaus.
Great food, great entertainment, and great friends. We were pretty blazed after the show and walking back to the hotel we stopped and shot the **** in the Marionplatz. We didnt get to sleep til 4-5 am. The whole night was just great fun. Nothing too exciting.. just felt good to be alive I suppose.
Infact I'm kinda feeling like that now. Just got in from a few small parties around campus in Milwaukee (UW). Just feels good to know you've got friends around to enjoy a few beers and have a good night. No fights, nobody's on a mission for that certain girl, no **** to hit the fan... a mellow, chill night.
Good stuff.

Gawd I'm glad my kids are out of high school.

I had a lot of fun in high school... but get this: it gets even better... If you play your cards right anyhow. The parties we had in the Navy and in College were totally off the hook compared to the desert keggers from high school.
So try not to burn out :)

22-17=5 years. You may be a good pilot, but I suspect your a lousy accountant. ;)

I graduated high school several years ago. Now, in my mid twenties, I can honestly say I've had about ten times more fun in college and even more so living on my own 3000 miles from where I grew up. Not to say highschool wasn't fun. It definitely was. Playing in the sandbox was fun too, and with matchbox cars. Once the sandbox becomes your own, however, and the car is the one you chose for yourself, that's when life really begins. Also, and I know I'm not alone in this, girls generally get better looking in their twenties. They're bodies, unless destined for early implosion, tighten up and come into their own. Their sense of syle matures, and, dare I say, their personalities become more interesting. There is life past highschool. More so, in fact, than there is IN highschool. For those that peak at 17 or 18... Good luck on the porch with the bud light 30 pack.

Some good stories, yea i know it gets alot better after high school, i got high expetations for college parties:D im just talkin bout high school now because thats where im stuck at until end of next school year.
lol you should be glad your kids are out of high school, its actually getting pretty bad these days, trust me i could be doing alot worse stuff that the "other people" do, but thats definetly not me, i just like to have fun every once in awhile.
Id say now days out of that 80% or so that i said drink, around 65% of those smoke marijuana, a good 40% are into extacy and shrooms LCD etc, and then may seem small but about 25% are into cocaine and harder drugs, i stay away from all of that crap, but i feel sorry for those kids.
Anyways keep em comin!:aok

I got a "B" on one of my test so decided to get of my study friends together and have a study night. We got some Cool-Aid and pretzles and studied all night. One of my study friends was a girl (chick) and we studied with her. It was cool. Someone brought some Mt. Dew and made us laugh.
It was a fun night.
Wow! The memories!

I was a teenager in the late 60's...I lived in California in the bay area.. birth control pills had just become widespread... it was the age of hippies, bikers, free love, muscle cars and no one had taken drugs long eenough yet to notice that there was any problem.... you could build a Harley for $1,500 and a meth lab could make $20,000 a batch for 50 bucks worth of chemicals... bands like credence clearwater played in bars.... The philmore was open.
If the rivets weren't showing then your drum brakes were good... any tread on tires constituted "good rubber" everyone knew that the front brake on a Harley was for looks and the way to stop in an emergency was to lay it down.... pansies wore helmets away from the race track.
I had such a good time that you all have to wear rubbers when you screw now.... sorry bout that.
