I took a running jump, but my toe caught on her bikini top and worked like a bungee cord. It slung me all the way back to the parking lot. The referee disqualified me for getting out of my lane.

Not only was I the shortest kid in class, I was the least athletic. But now that I'm the decrepit age of 62 no one expects me to jump. I said all that to say I enjoyed your story. <br /><br />Shalom,<br /><br />RochelleRochelle Wisoff-Fieldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00090374697915874481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892510436199255267.post-85148738068508232642015-09-04T03:07:35.252-04:002015-09-04T03:07:35.252-04:00I never heard of broad jump.
