When I was about 7 I had lost the key to the padlock on my bike and had had to walk home from school, it was only about a 10 minute walk but I was not happy. When I told my dad he was even more unhappy and as the bike was only about 3 months old sent me back to school with the spare key to get it after dinner rather than leave it there over night. By the time I got back to school it was getting dark and about 6:30.

I made my way across the playground towards the bike sheds, very relieved to see my bike still there. All around the playground were lights which were now on, making it look a little like a prison exercise yard. As I got closer to the bike shed I could hear muffled voices. I actually slowed my steps and crept nearer. I was also a little nervous because otherwise the place seemed totally deserted. I soon realized the voices were coming from the behind the shed. I decided not to look around the corner, which was quite a ways away due to the metal fence that stretched around the yard but as the bike sheds were in a rather dilapidated state find a hole were the wood had rotted to look through.


What I saw was one of the boys from a few years above me from the school and a rather chubby slightly spotty girl who looked younger, both naked and having sex (which I probably didn't realize at the time but I can tell now). My heart was beating so fast and loud I was afraid they were going to hear me. But then I decided to get them before they got me. Still behind the shed I got as close as I could to them, so close that I would have been able to reach out and touch them had there not been the wooden wall between us. Then with all my might and at the top of my lungs I screamed, “My name is yuck mouth, cause I don’t brush, and I like my teeth like this!” This was immediately followed by a scream from the girl, almost as long as the duration of my stupid song and some thuds and thumps and understandable commotion on the other side of the wall.


They soon came running out from behind the shed, first the girl with just her shirt on holding on to her pants in front of her and then the boy chasing her with his pants unzipped and being held up but no shirt. In the meantime I had gone to the other end of the fence and sat there in the shadows. Like idiots they raced straight under the lights not realizing they could now be seen from all directions. The girl was frantic and the boy tried to calm her down. Eventually they walked across the playground in the direction of the school gate. When they were finally out of sight I unlocked my bike and went home.

The woman who allegedly opened fire at YouTube’s headquarters in a suburb of San Francisco, injuring three before killing herself, was apparently furious with the video website because it had stopped paying her for her clips. Police in California named the shooter as Nasim Najafi Aghdam. Aghdam was “upset with the policies and practices of YouTube”, San Bruno police chief Ed Barberini said at a press conference on Wednesday. “This appears to be the motive for this incident.” No evidence had been found linking her to any individuals at the company where she allegedly opened fire on Tuesday, he said. Police gave her age as 39 but her brother said she would have turned 38 on Wednesday. Two of the three shooting victims from the incident were released from the Zuckerberg San Francisco general hospital on Tuesday night. A third, a male in his 30s, is currently in “serious condition”, a hospital spokeswoman said Wednesday morning. A fourth victim had been injured, but not shot,...
I saw him after the 1998 World Cup where he had called a controversial penalty kick against Brazil for Norway. This was a friendly at Foxboro on September 12, 1998 between the US and Mexico's women's team that the US won 9-0 although he wasn't the ref but rather was there for some kind of award. I shouted out to him as he walked by "اسی چاکریم!" but he either didn't hear me or chose not to respond. https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2019/...-builder-award Esfandiar "Esse" Baharmast, a former referee, player, coach and current instructor who has been involved in more than a dozen World Cup tournaments and Olympic Games, has been named the 2020 winner of U.S. Soccer's prestigious Werner Fricker Builder Award.

Michailovic pushed his glasses back and sighed.   “The following numbers are being released. ”The numbers came spitting out of Michailovic’s mouth, resembling in more ways than one a madman with a machine gun in a massacre.   Hardly anyone showed any reaction, making it impossible to tell whether they were shot or not.   The notable exceptions were a couple of smiles breaking out here and there as some numbers were being skipped.   As the list carried on, Callahan realized that before long it would be zooming in at an alarming rate on his proximity. Callahan had no idea who those ahead of him were, but he could see that none of them were making the cut.   He considered it good, after all the more gone before him, the higher his chances were.   He looked up at Michailovic, almost trying to read his lips before the words were spat out. “116.” Callahan looked around, trying to identify the holder of this number.   However, no one was responding. “117.” C...
