I remember I went to my friend Ben Weiner's birthday party.  It was just him and me and another one of his friends named Mike.  We went with Ben's mom to Chuckie Cheese's and afterwards we went to Toys 'R' Us.  I can't remember how it happened but I think that Ben's mom let us get some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures.  I think I got Splinter.  That was a fun and memorable birthday party indeed!

I remember we were doing a video in my class about the planets. We went outside and each person was teamed up with someone else. Each team represented a planet or the sun. We lined up outside the high school away from each other proportional to the distance between the planets. The video camera would come to each team and they would say what planet they were and give some facts. My team member was Jeff Williams. I do not remember what our planet was. I do remember that, as the video camera went to the next planet, I screamed "Mortal Kombat!" The movie trailers were out at the time and someone screams that at the end.

I remember that we had a teacher that we used to make fun of. She was our Home Economics teacher. She was overweight and short and had large breasts. We called her "Torpedo T---". You can guess what we called her.

Me and my friend Chris put a character in our book called "Torpedo T---".

I feel really bad about it though because it was cruel and she didn't do anything to deserve it.

Sometimes action figures would come with some kind of movement. You could lift their arm and it would spring back into place.  Well, I twisted one of my GI Joes only to discover that it would twist back similar to other action figures. I also found that they could be twisted almost a complete 360 degrees and they would spring back into their normal orientation.  Unfortunately, the Joes weren't intended to be twisted in such a fashion.  One time I twisted one of them and it broke.  The body fell off of the legs.  Then I was able to see why.  Basically, the top was connected to the bottom by a glorified rubber band.  After I discovered that, I stopped twisting them, but I started taking them apart to see if you could put one Joe's body on another Joe's legs.  It was very difficult and there were casualties.

I don't know why I remember this.

I remember when my brother and I were playing basketball with the guys and we were all pretty competitive. My brother was being a little bitch on defense and was pissing me off. I got so mad I just all of a sudden punched him in the face. All of a sudden his eye was bulging. I could not believe I actually did that! Wow, I was a little crazy. I guess I just got him back for when he punched my teeth out when we were little. His black eye was crazy. I felt really bad. Looking back on it, it was just good old brotherly love.
