Trak-Ball Phobia

[Uncle Duke]

This story maybe un-important, but I just figured I would share this past early childhood trauma with you.

 

Once when I was very little (about 4 or 5) I was at an arcade, and they had a bowling game, with a Trak-Ball. I dont remember what it was called, I was very small... But I wasnt even going to play the game. Actually I dont think I was allowed to play the game. I always remember being at Chuckie-Cheese and places like that but I always remember my parents saying, "Arcades are a waste of money!" So I was only allowed to play the games for tickets and stuff. So as a sad child, I would go up to games and... (really embarrassing) I would pretend I was playing the arcade game... So anyway, I was "playing" a bowling game and rolling the trak-ball thing around, and with a *snap* The flesh of my finger got jammed in the corner of the Trak-Ball, I shrieked and my finger bled a little, then I tried it again, another jam. I stayed clear of that for a while... So anyway, ever since then, no matter how much I try my fingers always get caught in those darn things! Even just recently I was playing Centipede at a Rolling Skating Rinc, and my finger got jammed AGAIN! Agh! Thats why I stay clear of those, but despite that... I still want to get a Trak-Ball for my VCS...
