Special Thanks to the people that voted and encouraged me for Hoosier of the year!

Growin up a little boy I always was a little off. Mom would always say “your not stupid your just special” Being a solid hoosier worthy of this award takes years of practice and special upbringing. I always thought it was normal when we would have bonfires in the backyard, put catfish we cawt from Busch in our 4 foot pool, and made almost $5 a week by pouring everyone beer from the keg. Then on top of that I got 1 penny for each cigarette bud I picked up from the yard. It really all started for me when mom pulled up to Kroger parking lot in the beat up deville that had more engine parts in the back seat then under the hood, but still had power windows. I clearly learned to master the “duck and cover” when we drove by people. And I never could figure out how she could take the keys out and the motor kept trying to run. So back to Kroger. There I am walking around in my codezero sweater and homemade skidz thinking I am the shit. Yes plaid cloth from clothworld and you can get the patch there too! I knew those clothes were hot because all the ladies were looking. It’s always nice going shopping with mom because if you get hungry you just eat whatever you want from the isles and bring the empty wrapper when it’s time to pay with the food stamps.

That was just one of the shining moments that made me the special person that I am, but I don’t want to leave others out.

Lets see:

I learned how to stop, drop and roll when my smart ma tried to burn the artificial christmas tree. I guess to save room in the beat up aluminum trash can for other trash or maybe her meatloaf. Meatloaf night was always fun because we knew we end up ordering pizza!

I learned how to sort things in chronological order by sorting all of my papa john’s boxes so the older one gets ate first so it don’t go bad. That’s smart thinking and very efficient

Did you know that when your done drinking a milk gallon carton you can cut the bottom off and make a drinking mug for beer or water or anything else? The best part is that it is free.

Thanks to a nice family secret I learned that the one thing that you absolutely can’t live without: the one thing you would want on a stranded sand bar on the Mississippi: the one thing that can solve the world’s problems. A nice thick roll of Duct Tape!

I would love to go on, but it’s time for a commercial break. Thanks to everyone that has voted for me. This award means so much to me. Almost as much as my authentic Z Caverichi’s and British Knight high tops.

The end.
