Second place in the regional pinewood derby in second grade. I was a cub scout! All the other kids' cars looked much cooler, but my clunky triangular piece of wood had the skills... and the maximum amount of allowed weight near the nose.
I remember that paper airplane throw. It was magnificent. Mr. Riesenhaur was going to video tape it and missed it and he got really upset with you. I am pretty sure he never even congratulated you. I used to think he was a great teacher and I now realize I was so wrong.
I won a bunch of drumming competitions back home... And a drawing contest in grade one. And a CO2 car contest in grade nine. And I won the movie Platoon at Oscar night the other night. :P
i won an ipod once in a drawing, and i won an honorary plaque in middle school for good grades. oh and i won $100 for top salesman in 5th grade! that was sweet
I won free access to Wheezy Waiter videos...(what's that, dear? everyone can see it? it's not a prize, it's out there for free?)...damn, well I won some music scholarships back in the day and I have a bowling trophy from my 6th grade league...I think we were called the shnotballs.
And, hate I hate to break it to you, but your home seems one-dimensional and lacks depth.
I won second prize on a halloween costume party contest for my one piece clown with an erection outfit.
Apparently the judges didn't see the erection (not because it wasn't big) but because I made a point of facing them so they would not get the side view of the glory that is me boner... inside an extra large taco bell cup.
I hope I gave everyone their mental image for the day.
