What are some of the awards or prizes you've won in your life........

[bluzman61]

I won a state fencing competition. I was voted best new writer of 1970something. I forget which. I have won a potload of art competitions. I won several dance competitions.

I'm competitive that way.

I used to love fennicing , but kind of lost my intrest when that Russian was killed in the Olympics ( the plastic tip fell off, think it was 1984?

It was a fun sport in high school

I removed the tip from a rapier that i had. I sharpened it until it was like a needle.

Was that before or after you removed the chrome from that trailer hitch?

You are in great need of a peeled peach. Some like mangos but there really isn't anything as efficient as a peeled peach. And entertaining too

Ok. So whats a peeled peach?

It means you're an asshole. Now PLEASE don't post anymore on this thread if you're just going to troll. It makes you look incredibly stupid, which I guess you most likely are. Thank you.

Thanks for NOT replying to the question I posted in my thread opening, Grumpy. What awards or prizes have you won that you'd like to share? It's as easy as that. And if you're here just to troll, PLEASE keep your sorry ass away from this thread. Thank you.

You can talk. All you do is troll threads I start.
The only thing Skye has won is dumbest poster on USMB.
I have won three awards in my life. All scholastic and high school level. That's it.

I graduated First in the Gunny School in the Marine Corps. I received a Meritorious Mast for a book review I had to present to a Board of Officers in the Battalion I was in. I graduated second in my Military Specialty Training Course. I graduated First in the Electronics Course.

I scored 98 on the ASVAB first time I took it, that is a test for joining the military. Also I finished 5 GED tests in 2 days. Recruiter talked the lady into letting me take the 5th one on second day rule is only 2 a day cause they give you 4 hours I did them so fast I took less then 2 hours a test.

I won an all expense paid trip to New York City!

It was awesome!

That you are proudest or most thankful for? With the virus crisis still going on and most of the world in lock down, I thought this might be a good way to reflect on memorable things in our lives that make us happy to look back on. Plus this could be a way for you to "toot your own horn", which also is a pleasurable thing. This could be ANY award or prize you won that brings back fond memories. I have two particular awards I won that I'm fond of recalling. I was voted Best Student Of Eighth Grade by my teachers and my principal. I received some kind of plaque commemorating this. I'm not sure WHERE it is now, but I still have it, packed in a box. The award was a surprise for me because the small rural school I went to tended to look up more to the athletes and not the best students. I was unable to play any sports because I had severe asthma as a kid. But I DID actually letter in 8th grade basketball for my contribution as statistician and manager for the 8th grade basketball team. I loved keeping score for the team, I was a math geek when I was a kid. The manager part wasn't so good. I had to collect all the towels used by the players and made sure the the locker room was nice and clean after the game. But I AM proud that I lettered in a sport, even though I didn't play any. My favorite prize was when I won TEN tickets for an off Broadway production of the musical Cats, the contest was held by a local classic rock radio station. If you came up with the best five classic rock songs that featured some kind of animal(s) in the song title or song itself, first prize was 10 tickets to the show. This was in 1989, the tickets then were worth about $350. I asked my ex-girlfriend to go, we were still friends, my mom and sister, two residents who were living in the group home where I was working, the manager of the group home - my boss, and her husband, and one of my co-workers and his girlfriend. Everyone was able to go on less than 12 hours notice. It was a great experience I'll never forget. Sorry about being so long winded, I have a tendency to do this! So, what are some of YOUR proudest awards or prizes you've received throughout your life?

I was manager of a problem property in Oxnard Cali, blackballed by the Point Mugu Navy so their soldiers could not rent there. I was hired to fix it. I got a commendation from the police chief for cleaning the place up and getting the Navy back in there as renters.

I was very proud of doing that. It was a mess of an apartment complex when I first got there.

Very nice, Gracie!

Oh yeah..I also won a trip to Vegas. Hated it. Shoulda been Maui, lol.

THAT must have been a lot of fun. I've been to New York City just once in my life. I was just 4-5 years old at the time and remember very little of the trip. But I do remember how tall the buildings looked. I kind of would like to visit again, after the virus crisis has completely passed.

 

[Asclepias]

I've never been lucky enough to win something I couldn't control except 1 time when I got the highest seniority within a group of people that all got hired the same day I did.

And believe it or not, I've never been to Vegas. I've never been a gambler and don't really care for the glitzy shows. So I most likely will never go there. But you never know.

You are in great need of a peeled peach. Some like mangos but there really isn't anything as efficient as a peeled peach. And entertaining too

Ok. So whats a peeled peach?

Its awful UNLESS you like the bluster and constant non stop noise. And hookers. And filth. And gambling. None of which I enjoy at all.
