#AtoZ : X - Stolen Innocence

B and I were in sixth grade and headed to the playground. On the way down the sidewalk, a man sitting on a stump asked for directions to Wilson School. Harmless enough.

Hot dogs
Next, the man mentioned how it was hot outside and wanted to know if we'd ever seen a man "do this" before. He unzipped his pants and pulled out something that looked like the end of a thick, uncooked hot dog without the ketchup, mustard, or even a bun.

While my friend stood gaping, I took off running. So, if a man ever asks me that question again, I will say, "Yes."

I bet you'll never look at hot dogs the same way again.

    Yikes. When I was a kid (also in 6th grade), the guy down the street was sitting in his garage with the door open, reading a newspaper. When my friends and I walked down the sidewalk one day, he hollered, "Hey, girls!" When we turned our heads, he lifted the paper to reveal that he was pantless.
