I       sternly commanced him to turnm himself around, plant his butt back in his seat       & buckle up. He replied, meekly & humbled, "Yes, sir." & I never hasd a       problem with him again.               Obliviously some disciple he never had at home.         Good for you.               > The only male adults he really saw were the johns visiting his mom, who paid       extra to have him forced to be in the room during the deed.

When I got home, a seconmd punishment was       awaiting, often my dad & his leather belt.               The same when I was in school.        If I got into trouble at school and cried about it at home there was a       second punishment at home. Of course being a perfect child this very seldom       happened. Ahem. If I did it was like old line about Las Vegas "what       happened in school stayed in school".         Joe       --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5        * Origin: Fidonet Since 1991 www.doccyber.org bbs.docsplace.org (1:135/392)       SEEN-BY: 1/120 123 14/0 18/0 30/0 80/1 90/1 103/705 105/81 116/116       SEEN-BY: 120/340 457 616 123/0 10 25 40 115 126 131 150 160 180 190       SEEN-BY: 123/200 257 755 129/305 135/300 366 371 379 382 383 384 385       SEEN-BY: 135/388 390 391 392 153/7715 154/10 30 40 50 700 203/0 218/700       SEEN-BY: 220/80 90 221/1 6 226/18 30 227/114 201 702 229/424 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/452 664 700 981 240/1120 5832 249/206 307 317 400 261/38       SEEN-BY: 280/464 282/464 1038 292/854 299/6 300/4 301/0 1 101 113       SEEN-BY: 301/123 317/3 322/757 335/364 341/66 342/200 633/280 712/848       SEEN-BY: 920/1 2320/105 3634/0 12 15 24 27 50 5020/1042 5058/104       PATH: 135/392 300 3634/12 154/10 301/1 229/426           |
