it's also interesting to note that SS/FG riders tend to be of the rebellious/alternative/counter-culture crowd, both as children and adults.

i've always been somewhere between the honors/AP kids, burnouts, and jocks. I know that makes no sense but hey I am what I am, and am still the same way, I suppose. I would sneak out on lunch break to go smoke weed/drink beer, but go back to class after and do my homework.

I was high when I had my Eagle board of review, smoked some white widow with my pals about 30min beforehand. Boy that was a bad idea, I mean it still worked out for me, but I was nervous as hell.

I remember the three higher-ups in the scouting org. that reviewed me were very interesting professionals to me. One was a mech. engineer who designed all of the underground water pipes in downtown San Diego (woah!), one was a consulting geologist (cool), and the other a teacher or something, I forget.
