Skills Put to Good Use

Today I had the chance to put some of my skills to good use. My sister is a cub scout leader and today they were talking about how we can help out the police force. Stuff like, report suspicious activities, or pay attention to detail if a crime happens, etc... While she was talking about that, I went into the backyard and took my nephew's ripstik and ran off. She had the boys into two groups so I had to do it twice. The first time, I had to jump the fence grab it and then jump back. The second time it was just up against the fence and all I had to do was grab it and walk away. It was a lot of fun to do. It reminded me of my good old acting days. The boys were shocked and really thought that I took it. They couldn't really describe me, one group thought I had gray hair the other thought I had blonde hair. I got a little worried though, because I was hiding from the boys so they couldn't see me until I took the ripstik, and my sister's neighbors kept watching me suspiciously. I was scared that they might really call the police on me, and then I would have to try and explain myself to them. I am glad that I was able to put some of my skills to work for the good of others and also to be able to help me sister out.
