Sigh, as usual, some of the answers that I would give are not on the list - probably because they are so nerdy that they are off the chart.

Back in the day at the LAUSD(Los Angeles Unified School District) the nerdy ones ran the film projectors, That or the teachers did.

I had 3 older brothers....any jocks who picked on me in school tended to have "discussions" with one of the 3 at a later time and would usually apologize profusely within 24 hours.

My older brother was in the Navy back then and on the other side of the country in SC, He commuted to New York.

His job was at the Navy base, But of course base housing was not available, So SC was It. I had no idea, I was born in California.

Well it says, I am an Uber Cool Non-Nerd.
I am not sure, if that is good or bad.
