I was the second youngest of six children. My Dad had the most contagious laugh. He died twenty five years ago. But he had one or two funny stories he would tell about each of us kids. He had two stories about me. He waould laugh and laugh about them. They both took place when I was about three. My parents took all six of us kids to a drive-in movie in our station wagon. My dad said everyone was quietly enjoying the movie when they heard a small voice from the back seat say "Heads heads thousands of heads."
The other incident happened when I answered the front door one afternoon and a friend of my parents asked if my mother was at home, I called for her. He struck up a conversation and asked if I had a kitty. "No" I replied. "Do you have a Dog?" he asked. "No", I replied, "all we have are six sick kids!" I think we all had colds or the flu or something. It doesn't seem that funny as I type it, but it makes me chuckle to think how my dad laughed and laughed about it.

Another time I had an incident while running was in Kego Harbor. I was running down a road and I just totally tripped on the sidewalk. This was the worst fall I have ever done while running and my knee was totally messed up.

Gladly some people in an SUV helped me out and drove me home, because I dont think I would have been able to make it back. People are really nice and 90% of the people in this world have very good hearts.

Here's the story behind my username.  I think it was Derek Conrad that started calling me "Nalel".  Then it turned into "Lel".  And now Dave calls me lellel.  I used to call Kevin "Keevinalel".

Kevin and I used to make weird noises.  We used to say "yiyiyi".  We called this the Dane Fife mating call.  Dane was my childhood bully so it was our dorky way of getting back it him (behind his back).  We used to make this weird noise that happens when you smack your tongue against your bottom lip and make this distorted face.  I will have to find a picture of one of us making the face - I know they are out there as we did it often.

Recently I started using the word "Nalel" again.  It cracks my friend Sabrina up every time that I say it.  I say it like this "Naaaalel" and make a funny face.

When Dan and Dave used to live in Waterford, there was this party store within walking distance of their house.  We used to walk up there all the time and load up on candy to eat as we stayed up all night playing video games.  On one occassion we went there and I don't know why but I stole some Bubilicious gum.  It is strange that I remember that to this day.  I can still see the interior of the party store in my head.

There was an old lady who lived next door to my friend Lynn.  She was known as the neighborhood witch, and there were rumors circulating that she had killed a kid for going into her backyard.  She was REALLY old too... 

Anyway...   me and 3 other girls decided to go up to her house, knock on her door and run away.... 

My friend, Kristen, knocked so hard that she broke the glass door!  We freaked out and ran to my house.  About an hour later, Lynn's mother called and said that we were all in BIG trouble.  Apparently, the old lady was sitting in her living room.  She watched the whole thing through her window.
