Strange but true

When i was about 10 years old and my younger brother was 9...
We had to take swimming lessons at the local pool early on satruday mornings.
Of course our father would be the one to get up at 6a.m. and get us ready and take us to the pool... for lessons started at 7a.m.
while on the way to the pool our father started to complain ..
"Here I am on my day off having to get up early and take you guys to swimming lessons."..."When I was your age, my father, your grandfather, took me out into the middle of a lake in a boat and threw me over the side..Thats how I learned to swim."
My little brother was the first to think about what my father just said.
He then replied "Naw grandpa was just too cheap to waste a cinderblock."
My dad got this look of suprise on his face and said "HEY!!!"
"Thats really funny...I'll have to remember that one."
This is a true story
believe it or not

Suggesting that the grandfather had intended for his son, the father, to drown but was too cheap to use the foolproof method of attaching a cinderblock to the child's (the father's) leg as he threw him over the side.

Oh yeah, and that's damn funny. What've loved to hear the tone of the reaction.

As a matter of fact my younger brother was and is still very intelligent.....
He attended the university of Tenn. and got a bachlors in computer science..
(Man i cant even spell correctly)
Then Completed a course for a Doctorate in Physical therapy (A Girl friend of his was a grad student in Physical therapy there and challenged him to take her classes and see if he could complete them...He did and then she married him.)
And now this year he just completed a masters in computer aided map topography....
He just won a grant from the university for aireal photography...
So he's out taking pictures of archeology digs from the air and getting paid for it....
when i was 16 and he was 15 it was aggravating to see him get straight A's
and never study..I had to stay in at night and work just to get C's and B's

Later when i was about 14 ..I was very much into soccer...My brother had just made a team...during his first game he made a slide tacle to keep the other team from scoring...there was a piece of glass in the grass that no one could see and it slit his knee open...he had to have stitches...my father said he stopped counting the stitches the doctor put in after 50....

Later I had just finished playing a game and was walking up to my father and brother standing on the sidelines...as i got closer I recognized a man talking to my dad...he was Major Barrington...My fathers comanding officer at the air base ... The major was teasing my brother..."Aww poor little fellow got a bad boo boo?" He turned to my dad and said "Just like all little boys . Got to have a big bandage to show off his boo boo."
Now by this time my dad knows not to leave my brother any time to speak...
so as soon as i got closer my dad turned and said "This is my eldest son brad. Brad say hi to the major." I said hi and shook the hand the major offered....My dad said " Well his game is over so we have to get home so thier mother can hear about the game and finish picking up dinner."
the major said "Ok. see you at the base monday."
So my dad said "bye major"
I said "Bye major"
My brother said " Hey if you didn't out rank my father I call you an asshole."
The major started laughing..and said "Yup thats one of your boys for sure."
My dad burried his face in his hands and waited for the embarrassing feeling to go away...He never did say anything about it...and now he loves to tell that story to any one who will listen
