[17] Things To Do When You're Board

 Well, I'm a nerd.

(Don't everyone run up here at once to dispute that...)

But as I write this post, it's becoming the nerdiest one I've written so far.  And that's saying something.

Back around 1990, perhaps a little late in the game compared to some, I got my hands on a modem and discovered Dial-up BBSs.  It came late to me, because I lived in the middle of nowhere, and there were no systems a free phone call away yet. Still, I convinced my parents to make the occasional call to a system about 30 miles away, and started to get a lot more up to date with the world.

No BBS user was this attractive, and never had such an attractive girlfriend looking over their shoulder.

[16] Driven to Success

 Like most red-blooded American boys, I wanted to drive from an early age.  Perhaps my desire started with being jealous of a neighbor when I was in Kindergarten.  Walking with Mom down the street to a public park, we passed some slightly older neighborhood kids driving around their driveway and the street in what is now an iconic 1980s toy.

"I love my Power Wheels.  It's so rad."

My desire never changed after that.  So, even though I wasn't tall enough to reach the pedals, I practiced driving electronically.  Well, as soon as the computer industry caught up, that is.
