    Not a bad dream for a young man to have. I thought about that before, but only because of all the female groupies that come with musical fame, certainly not because I was ever any good with any instrument. I loathed music class in school as a kid.
    I took guitar lessons and everything.. but I was no good.

    I still blame it on my lefthandedness though. That be my excuse.

      lol...

      Cooking is swell. It keeps me off the streets and out of trouble.

        Grew up listening to jazz with my father. Loved the sound but could never be arsed to try my hand at it. I had some sports talent when I was young, but music, art, and everything else was far out of my reach, and by choice. Guys who joined the band were ostracized and came off like sissies. Wouldn't have tried to play even if I wanted to. Couldn't let go of my tough guy image back then.

          My tough guy image became legendary when I smashed a beer bottle over the science teacher's head at the prom. Shame I left it to the end of my school career though... although maybe it were a good thing as I'd probably have been kicked out of school.

            I'll do some work outside on the grill when it's time to barbecue, but that's as far as I go. Never cared to master the culinary arts either. Love to eat, but damn cooking. I'm a lazy bastard.

              Now that's an aspiration I always had but never pursued. So close to duking out many a teacher in my day, but thought about the inevitable jailtime attached to such an act and let it go. That's a hell of way to close out your school career. You weren't charged?

                Never heard another word about it. I spent about a week where I wouldn't answer the door thinking it was the cops..
                He was actually a tough guy though this science teacher. Even bigger than me and I think had seen his fair share of pub fights. Not a brit thing to be a grass. I'd cross the street if I saw him coming today though.

                  Amazing. Teachers at my schools were quick to file a report if you called them a name, let alone busted a bottle over their head. I wish I could have pulled that stunt and walked away with nothing but a smile.

                    That guy was old school though... Old School! I think he's the only one I could have gotten away with it on. I was a nasty bastard in those days though. I'd love to go back and give meself a good slap. Nowadays I'm a chilled out - friendly guy. The occasional piss-brick raid is just to let off steam.
                    Speaking of old school teachers, I recall me dad telling me of the nasty ****s he encountered in the 60's, back when they could practically beat the shit out of kids if they stepped out of line. One laid into him with a cane and my dad picked up a chair, smashed it on the teacher's back putting him unconscious. My dad ran out of the classroom and never heard another word about it. Proper old school... pride made him keep his mouth shut.

                      My final drink of the evening. Always a sad moment.
