Kids in my class were mocking Jews !!!

[mudwhistle]

This guy has had his nose broken.

I had my nose broken too.

It just goes slightly to the right.

 

[mudwhistle]

It was one of the first movies I saw and I watch it every year or 2

I watched it again a few weeks ago.

May the Fourth be with you.

My old High School was loaded with Jewish kids and I never ever heard any anti Semitism ever

We had three Jewish kids and we were together from kindergarten all the way through HS. They were very popular, especially the girl. I never once heard or heard of a slur against them.

The only Jewish student I knew in H.S. ended up being my mom's doctor for years.

Big noses aren't restricted to Jews. Roman Catholics have them as well as do some others.

Which Roman Catholics?

The Hispanics, the Irish, the Poles or the Italians??

 

[cnm]

I overheard them !!

I was utterly shocked!!

They were making fun of Jewish noses !!
Saying to each other that you have a big Jewish nose or Jews are cheap
. One guy said at least I am not a Jew

I am not mad but it was a tad odd

Almost as though they were like you talking about Blacks, eh?

We would joke about blacks but would never apply those jokes to our black schoolmates, who were also among the most popular kids in school. Ironic eh?

My Dad sometimes joked about blacks. But there were never hardly any in my hometown.
We had 2 of them. A boy and a girl.....and I asked the black girl in my school if she knew the other black student.
She said she knew of him.
When I brought my wife to my class reunions some of my classmates treated her like a celebrity.

I had my nose broken too.
...

At least a dozen times, but right down the middle so it's still pretty nose-shaped. Inside is a jigsaw puzzle. Every once in a while it just starts bleeding again.

I broke mine in a boxing match on the Kitty Hawk off the coast of Singapore.
We had been out at sea for 2 months, so the CO let us hold Smokers.
3 round fights.
Shoulda zigged instead of zagged.

Stuck right there on the front of the face, it's bound to get hit once in a while.

Competitive wrestling from the age of 7, I'm sometimes surprised my nose is still there. Over two dozen other bones as well over time.

Fcked up my shin sparring during Karate classes in Hawaii.
Didn't break it, but it was a bone bruise.
Woke me up every night for a couple of months.

Got a stress fracture in my foot during selection at Ft Bragg NC.

Builds character.

Got that right.

Rucked 24.8 miles out at Camp McCall with that stress fracture in my right foot.

When I got on the 2 1/2 ton truck I took my boot off and my foot swelled up.
Went from a size 12 to a size 13 or 14.
They let us wear tennis shoes for a couple of weeks till the swelling went down.

Ever see pics of Trench Foot from WWI?

What is it about their noses? Just as long as they have one. One of my favorite singers almost lost his all together when he was still a teenager, Trace Adkins that is. He was in a really bad car accident and his nose had to be sewn back onto his face.

God bless you and him always!!!

Holly (a day one fan of Trace)

P.S. That accident may have only been just the beginning for Trace. That man, if he were a cat, he would be on life eight or nine by now.

I watched him in a Western called "Old Henry", it was a pretty good movie.

During some of the classes they gave us.

They taught us how to take care of our feet.
We always carried extra socks and wore Jungle Boots because they dry faster than leather boots.
Some of the Rangers gave me tips on how to take care of blisters.
We would shoot Tincture of Benzoin in them to turn them into instant calluses.
And we wore Moleskin sometimes, but you had to be careful taking it off or it would rip your skin off your feet.
