I used to (regularly) eat:
- Saltines with cocktail and pretend it has an oyster on it.
- potato chopped up in a skillet with butter and Parmesan cheese
- I washed my roommates car for a trip to Kenny Roger’s Roasters
- Would eat for 5 days on 1 trip to Mr.Gattis... snuck out with about 50 slices in a napkin

Loved loves LOVED taking showers at girls apartments bc they had all of the nice soaps and stuff. Felt like I was leaving a spa treatment.

Also, had several friends who had gas cards and would let me pay $.50 on the dollar for gas and beer.

Sames friends would charge their books to parents (and charge mine) and I would pay them 1/2 the money.

Could you clarify this? I am trying to get my head around what you are saying here.

To some extent, you and your friends were rather nifty and creative... but on the other hand, hard to look at that admission and not see thieving, dindunuffin-like behavior, that you could have been prosecuted for. I hope you aren't teaching anyone in the next generation that what you did was acceptable. But luckily for us all, you detailed your fraudulent crimes here on the O-T.
