Anthony

I talked Anthony into telling me 6 random things, and thought it would be fun to post them.

1. I was suspended in the sixth grade for shorting out electrical outlets with gum wrappers. I was required to go to fire safety school, because I was blamed for trying to burn down the elementary school.
2. As a young boy I was blamed for starting a fire in a field that nearly burned down our house. I still claim my innocence because I don’t remember it happening, I just remember my dad and the neighbors running around with hoses.
3. I hold the world’s record for the longest amount of time spent being grounded. I was grounded from the age of 15 to the age of 16 for an incident involving a haunted house.
4. A family rule was enacted stating that interest can no longer be charged to immediate family members, because when my sisters wanted to play house the only way I would agree is if I could be the banker. And of course the banker always makes money.
5. At ten years old my uncle thought it would be fun to pull me behind a four-wheeler on a tube. That sounds normal, but in this case there wasn’t any snow just a bunch of mud. I’m not sure if I have any pictures of it, but it doesn’t really matter, because you can’t even tell me apart from a giant mud pie.
6. Being one of the older cousins in my family put me in position to be the brains behind many of our endeavors. One such plan ended up with my cousin Daniel falling 20 ft onto his back, after I told him to be the first one to test our new zipline. The zipline was my ingenious idea, I just didn’t have the guts to try it out.
