So you know, when you were a child, you went to a swimming pool. Right? We all have stories to share, I'll go ahead and share one:

Geez man! I thought this would be stories like how when I was little, we'd go swimming for an hour and then watch people play Street Fighter II on the one arcade machine the pool had...

^I played spy hunter at my pool.. It had an electrical grounding problem because if you touched this one screw while you were still wet from the pool you got a shock. Good times.

I remember we'd walk to Dodge pool almost to downtown Columbus. It was so ghetto. It was 25 cents to get in (12 years later, that's what, 40 cents in today's currency?). The pool was huge. I remember someone snatching my goggles off WHILE I was underwater. Still bitter to this day.

One time I went to a pool and the chlorine/other chemicals turned my hair green.
