I was a very bad news punk, and it showed. One time I was playing craps during auto shop, and the teacher grabbed my dice and crushed them in the arbor. I was not happy. I told him that was destruction of private property, in front of the entire class. So he says he wants to talk to me, in private. We go behind closed doors, and he reads me the riot act, calls me a punk and proceeds to put his hands on me. Huge mistake, as I spent a lot of time with my Chinese friends sparring, extending your hands is a mistake. His mistake cost him, and I took him down out of self defense only. So I ask him, are we done? We come out of the parts closet, and walk back into class. Nobody said a word, you could tell we had went at it. I had a bad attitude, low self esteem and a mean streak too long to describe. Saw him later on in a park, he actually apologized...I had so many suspensions and truants my only out was the pen or the Navy...OF
