  4. Ceci n'est pas une window?

    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.

  5. I too am clunky, triangular, and carry my weight near my nose.

    ...I won the school spelling bee when I was in 6th grade.

  7. 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.

  8. During my Junior year I won a citizenship award at a school assembly. I almost cut that assembly. Fortunately a teacher gave me a heads up.

  16. 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.

  17. 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.
