The fire extinguisher incident
« on: January 27, 2004, 03:32:00 PM »
One day in New England in early 1988 there
was a terrible snow storm. The Straight
building was in Stoughton (south of Boston),
and I was a newcomer living with a host family in
New Hampshire.

Well the snow was so bad where we were that our
bus never came. There were only a handful of
people that rode the bus anyway. But on this
day we were fortunate enough to not have to go
to the building!!!

I wasn't there to see it, but my oldcomers host brother would later explain what happened.
Apparently a newcomer guy grabbed a fire extinguisher during exercies rap and just went nuts with it, spraying staff and kids and, I would
only imagine, made a run for it.

He was withdrawn not too long after. Again I
wasn't there to see it. But are there any other
stories of outbursts like this, in and out of the group setting?

Just curious.

this one's funnier than sending a Somali into a backflip @ 800 meters. Here we go fellow babies:

Prelude to a Kiss (circa 1986, Cinci Str8)

Two misbehaver girls bust a vase or something over the skull of their host Mom and escape from a second floor window of the host home. They E&E to a truck stop and trade beaver for mileage. Both are recaptured and change. The staff utilized one to confront me; very insulting and futile. I'd never said/done anything to this girl except support her efforts to resist (except hurting the host Mom).

I was in an R&R phase (passive aggressive), cause I'd spent too much time on the floor that week. She really pissed me off and I wanted revenge. Initially, I just wanted to spit in her face, but my surveillance revealed another option.

It seems that while on the road, she had contracted a case of rotten clam. I watched as the medication cart brought her comfort cream; I confirmed this as I read the script label as I picked up my daily ration of "group candy".

Next time she and the med cart presented, I smiled in anticipation. I simply lined up for my "meds", snatched her anti-funkal cream and tossed it into the middle of the girl's side. It was read like an MI while being passed down the line to the 5th phase Zombots (robotic zombies). The look on her face was priceless. Staff didn't realize what had actually been accomplished, so I was simply led back to my blue chair.

A simple bio/psy op which provided me great amusement and the luxury of seeing damage assessment each time I cast a look upon her face.
Didn't even have to draw blood to see it flow. Priceless.

I had to get my eyes washed out at the hospital after that incedent in Stoughton.  Misbehavers usually got locked in the infirmary until a kid from N.H. Destroyed it.

Anyone remember the massive group revolt incident that ended with Peter B. throwing a chair at a staff member so as to provide coverage for those of us running for the door? Peter was tackled, the chair flew into my head and knocked me unconcious. Jeremy E. and others carried me away so that my concusion and I could be treated properly at the hospital. Next open meeting 5 of us stood up w/ black eyes, mine was the biggest.
love ya!
