This is my public apology to Joe Petrasek for shooting him with my BB gun when I was a kid.  I am sorry Joe, Please forgive me!

What kind of a person would shoot a cute kid  like Joe? In the back, no less.  What was I thinking!?   Note the cold blank stare.  This kid was nothing but trouble.  His expression shows a total lack of concern for his fellow classmates.

(Should I embark on any 12-step programs, I am hoping this apology will give me
a head start on Step 9.)

Today, Joe takes his mind off unpleasant past experiences by riding one of his two beautiful 'Hogs'.

Lee also likes to unwind on his Hog.  He's gotten over his anti-social behaviors, thanks to many years
of work with a skilled therapist.

What can we all learn from this?  Not too much except that kids who play with BB guns never outgrow toys!
