Re: How did you torture your dad
We three boys put my dad through hell. Mom gave him hell for just about everything ?his? boys did.
We stole his beloved Karmann Ghia convertible and left it in the creek, more than once. Stole his beloved Karmann Ghia convertible and left it in the ditch, twice. Stole his beloved Karmann Ghia convertible and left it blown up on the side of the road after a midnight beer run, when we were 16 years old.
The hydroponic Pot garden in the attic didn?t go over too well.
More than once his favorite bottle of Bourbon was 90% water when he went to get a drink.
We had the only in ground swimming pool in the neighborhood. Skipping school and partying at the pool was a full time hobby. Having Mom or Dad come home early and catch you in bed with some girl was always amusing. He would yell for mom?s benefit but he always had ?that a boy look? in his eyes.
The night the neighborhood farmer came over after my youngest brother and his friends shot all the guys prized pigeons in his barn with a bb gun was amusing.
We lived in the big, L shaped house. My parent's bedroom was on the bottom floor on one end of the house, ours was upstairs on the opposite end of the house. We used to have parties late at night. We would put a ladder up against our upstairs bedroom and have a 1/2 the neighborhood over for psychedelic parties. Black lights, quad stereo, the whole works. We must have had 20 kids over one night. About 3 am the lights come on and it?s Mom standing in the doorway to my brothers bedroom. I have never seen people go out a window and down a ladder faster than that night.
