True story. My two (much older) brothers got into an argument about which radio program to listen to. This would have been when they were about 6 and 4. Anyway, one of them decided they should cut the radio in half, got a saw and began doing the deed. My father walked in and stopped it. However, not before there was about 2 inch long 3/8 inch deep cut in the leading edge of the top of the radio cabinet. He kept that cabinet until after he passed away. He would bring up that story when ever people were in disagreement and would make out like he was still angry about it. No one seems to know what became of it. My mother, until her death, often used the phrase; "Don't you make me tell the story of the radio cabinet!"

I did say once in your life so I think that counts.

But in a boat you would have to say "whoosh".

I would say "today I learned" that I have the maturity of a 10 year old, but I already knew that.

I applied for a supervisor fitness position for the US Air Force Academy. I knew it was a slim chance since I barely meet the qualifications. But the further I got in the application questions, the more I realized I am woefully unqualified lol
