D@mn, roamer, you needed some serious lessons on being sneakier...
I always managed to keep mine to misdemeanors.
It was sixth grade when I spent purt'near every day visiting the office. It was so extensive, the one week I decided to behave myself and stay out of any trouble (yes, it was a strain) the Principal called my folks and told them he hoped I was feeling better. I spent the weekend on lockdown, grounded to the house for skipping school, where there was NOTHING for a mile in any direction--until that got cleared up on Monday. I maintained a higher profile after that, but not too high. Moderation in all things, and all that.
Mostly they were for tusslin. Self defense, right back in. Wasn't me throwing the first punch. Three or four were for wading into a fight. Defense of others, normally knocking down some jerk that was wailing on a girl, or putting the boots to somebody... Again, right back in. Two were administrative, because I missed too many days, because they suspended me in the first place. Lawyer, because that ain't fair. Right back in.
Kinda that sort of thing... It was right when they started the whole idea of suspending everybody and anybody involved in a fight... Didn't work out so good for them in my case.
I don't back up. It ain't in me.
