Oh boy!! Buzz is one busy boy!! My Nephew was always rather hyper. Sometimes you had to come right out & tell him to shut up. He seemed to understand blunt language more than people trying to be nice to him. He did end up in prison for a while though. He really isn't my Nephew...my husband's oldest sister took her daughter's children to live with them when their daughter got high on dope all the time. I guess Danny tried to steal their car & also got into their bank account. The refused to give him any leeway b/c he had pulled so many other stunts. I do know that he talked a lot though. We brought him home from WI with us once. Our dog had been attacked by a neighbor dog up there & Danny insisted on sitting in the back seat with Pepper. I warned him that Pepper was hurting a great deal & he shouldn't fool around with her. If he did, I was sure she would take after him. I kept turning around & looking at him & he kept telling me that he wasn't doing anything bad. He also climbed on my antique love seat when we had a lot of company one year. He was only around 5 yrs old & I walked out of the kitchen & here was Danny jumping up & down on my love seat. I yelled at him to get off of the love seat & boy did he move fast. He did end up breaking the springs in the seat & I have never gotten it fixed. I also had candy sitting on dishes around the room & I found his finger prints all over my walls afterwards..that along with the sweet potatoes. He was at another relative's place in northern, IL (Harvard ) & Chuck & Peg came out in the garage & here was Danny slamming Chuck's truck door into their good car. I'm thinking that his Grandmother & Grandfather paid to have Peg & Chuck's car repaired. Just those few things should have forewarned people what to expect of this child as he got older. It's a shame that he spent the time that he did in prison..but it didn't seem to bother him one way or another. We "think" we know who the father was & if it's who we think it was...he was a complete idiot. ~J ----- Original Message ----- From: <askgranny@juno.com> To: <southern-chat@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, October 16, 2010 11:24 PM Subject: Re: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Buzz is in trouble ! > Oh, they can kick you off the bus here in TN...When we had Buzz living > here he got kicked off a few times...after a certain amount of times > that's it for the year!
