I can't believe I tried to defend Michael Smalley

So....I?m skiing in Lake Tahoe a few weeks back with a friend of mine, and he won?t stop talking about Pittsburgh. I told him that I was used to it, having had a few camp friends from Pittsburgh. He asked who. The first name I mentioned was my old friend Michael Smalley. ?Michael Smalley?? he says. ?He punched me in the stomach when I was 8 years old for no reason as I was walking down the street!?
"Bull&^*@," I responded. Quite a disagreement broke out on top of Northstar, as I defended my old bunkmate as a highly-respected, well-mannered, professional educator. There was just no way this was true. It couldn?t be. Not Little Man.
Upon my return, I called and confronted Michael with the accusation. I told him about my spirited defense. ?That story is absolutely untrue,? Michael reassured me, ?unless the guy?s name was David Rosenblatt.?
You can guess what the name of my skiing friend was.
Another Alton image sullied!
