"Special Delivery"

[leggyarcher]

I was bored and to occupy my time, I done a search for "odd news" on Yahoo. Here is what I found...this guy had to be extremely bored also!

That guy must be mentally ill. That said, has anyone ever frozen pee in an upside down frisbee and then popped it out, and slid it under their buddy's locked dorm room door so that it would thaw on the carpet? I haven't either, just wondering if you had.

In my career of driving at both UPS and FedEx, I can tell you that this is not uncommon!:D I've got stories, but this is a family forum... I get the chuckles just thinking about what I've seen and heard about throughout the years...:D

[leggyarcher]

I have talked to a lot of the local UPS/FedX drivers and they have also said that they have encountered several strange, and some just plain nasty packages. One time, I found a very nasty "package" laying in my yard. Let's just say that I didn't pick it up without latex gloves on.

Ateup, I had never thought about pulling a stunt like that, but I am sure it would raise some eyebrows. :eek:

Nope, but I knew a guy at EKU that would take gallon milk jugs full of pee and toss them down the stairwells of Keene Hall, shouting "bombs away." :eek:

Keene Hall was an interesting place back then...

Oh man, don't get me started on dorms!:D I've seen a guy so drunk that he sat in the hall an wiped his own feces on himself for a couple of hours. I think someone should make a reality show on dorm life, of course you'd have to air it on HBO!

[trust me]

Keene Hall was an interesting place back then...

Wow! Another veteran of Keene Hall....back in 85 we called the place the Berea Motel. For obvious reasons....IIRC, it was 1,780 steps to the Combs Building. That's a mile. Then it was up 12 flights of stairs because the Terrible Trio never were in full repair. By the middle of my first semester, I could run up those steps and not even breath hard.

The stories of drunks and their antics could go on forever. There was one jerk that got roped in his room. He was a drunken ass, passed out on his bed, so they took the receiver off his phone and tied a rope from his door knob to the door across the hall. He sobered up on Friday morning, couldn't get out, couldn't call for help, and couldn't get anybody to listen to him as he yelled out the window. Think about it; if some bozo was yelling at you from his 12th floor window, "Help me, I'm locked in my room!", would you listen to him?

The jerk stayed there till his roommate showed up Monday morning. I would speculate he changed his ways after that.

Oh yes, the Berea Motel! LOL had forgot that one. One of my worst memories of Keene was when the firebugs would get on a kick and drop flaming bags of garbage down the garbage chute at three o'clock in the morning... Had a lot of good times there, looking back on it. Did you all ever take rolls of duct tape, dresser drawers, leaves from desks, etc. and dam up the shower room, turn all the showers on, and make a swimming pool? I can remember a few pool parties, but the memories are fuzzy. :D

Great Scott, Man! You must be insane! A community shower stall in Keene Hall was the last place I'd want to be swimming around!:eek:

We did have some jungle juice parties in the bathroom. We'd fix up a styrofoam cooler full of sliced fruit, juice, and Everclear. If there was a problem, the evidence could be tipped over and flushed down the drain.

If I'd ever found out who the firebugs were that kept setting the trash chute on fire, I guarantee I'd have lynch mob formed in 2 minutes flat and we'd have had that sucker hung out of his window.

I'm a veteran of the famous Fire of 86, when 3 rooms on the 6th were gutted. Some kid's electrician daddy had made up an extension cord, and the kid woke up about 3 am and everything was flaming. He ran from the room, didn't close his door, and the whole place dang near went up. I was displaced and homeless for a week. They wouldn't even let us in to get our clothes. I slept on couches and washed my underwear in sinks. Not a good time.

LOL well our sense of reason was a little, er, impacted...

I survived the Great Earthquake Scare Fire Alarm Frenzy of 92, when scientists predicted the New Madrid Fault would wipe out the state on a certain evening. Fire alarms were set off every half hour to 45 minutes for about ten straight hours. People were crawling in the backs of pickups in the parking lot to sleep. That one was a blast.

Auk, What else went on in the Berea Hotel? :cool: Sounds like you all were a wild bunch back in the day.....

Um, lots of studying... yeah, that was it... we studied a lot. A whole lot. There were a few miscreants, hon, but I stayed away from them... afraid they would be a bad influence... yep, nothing but serious studying went on.

Something tells me that you didn't live vicariously through anyone else while you were there. ;) I bet you were the instigator in a few of the mischievous incidents. :)

Actually, EKU was starting to tame down a little bit by the time I got there. Still kind of a party school but nothing like it was in the 80s. If you REALLLY want to know how EKU was in its "glory days," ask Trust Me about it, he was there right in its heyday. I imagine he has a few stories he could tell. :D

[aceoky]

Well, I'm just happy to know trust me washed his underwear even if in a sink! :D :D (sorry just couldn't resist.....though I did try):D
