john lennon Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Because all children believe they're gonna take over the world, ya know? So, what did you want to be when you were a kid? Personally, I wanted to become many things. At five, I wanted to grow up so that I could drink a lot of beer. At 7, I wanted to have a three story house and 100 cats. At 9, I wanted to be a rock star and try a bunch of drugs. At 11, I wanted to become a stripper. My dad was really supporting of all my ideas. I still laugh about that. I mean, kudos on me because I did fullfil that first dream of mine, right? Only I can't really drink a lot of beer anymore because my entire body feels like it's burning up from the inside, so I gotta stick with booze or wine these days.

soon Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I wanted to be a rodeo cowboy. I also really loved Where The Red Ferns Grow and wanted to get some dogs and hunt racoons like in the book. So I guess I was picturing being a homesteader who toured Rodeos pat of the year? When my parents made clear we could not afford a horse, I briefly switched focus to being a rodeo clown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I remember the salute. You are meant to do it to the eyes, 'longest way up/fastest way down''. I went and did it plonk on my head - that provoked some ribaldry. I remember the chap in charge had a picture of the Queen on his wall.

You do realise that you will have your own cavalry and foot? I'm sure they will be filled with far more attractive chaps than Rose. In fact this is what I fear: you will end up fancying all your own entourage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
