My genius brother

So my brother did something recently that completely reminded me of myself at his age. Not that I ever cheated at school, but it was a shenanigan that I probably would have tried to pull off. Probably with a little more success than him though.

I guess he got a little overwhelmed with school and decided to hack into the school's database and steal a project our sister did for the same class and then turn it in. Pretty resourceful on his part I would say, save the fact that he didn't take her name off of the project and got caught!

Way to go little bro! I guess I'll have to teach him a thing or two about getting away with things...Or at least something about choosing your shenanigans wisely and doing everything in your power to get away with them.

That being said, I can't say that I was that good at getting away with stuff as a kid. My parents seemed to be able to sniff out trouble whenever I did something stupid. What didn't help was that if I actually got away with something, my best friend would get caught by his parents, which would get passed on to my parents and I would end up getting in trouble either way.

Anyway, I guess it was all a part of growing up. I probably wouldn't be the same person today if I hadn't been constantly grounded as a kid. I did do some pretty stupid things (see scar on my forearm), but I turned out well. Hopefully the same thing applies to little brother.
