This description just makes me more curious about meeting y'all. Next time I'm in Houston if y'all are willing drinks are on me.. Although considering how much you say you drink FFB for the sake of my wallet I might have to cut you off early.
I was like a UN envoy...a little time with the jocks, artists, stoners, class clowns, hip hoppers and academic types in equal measure. I mostly hung out with older people who weren't in high school after my junior year.
Oh, God help me. When I went and met with him and the guy that used to be the Head Master there a few years back about them re-doing their website, he said, "Jeff Balke! I have been cursing your name ever since the day you graduated." Apparently, he shouldn't have let a 16-year-old metal fan pick out the bass amp because, chances are, you are going to get something significantly bigger than you want. The fact that the band room is upstairs still makes me smile. That guy did NOT like me and, apparently, still doesn't.
in middle school i hung around with the "gangster" kids. the crips and whatnot lol. needless to say i got into lots of fights because of that. then in high school i didnt hang with any group really.
