Well, I guess Ill start off. When you are growing up you tend to think that you are more clever than you really are. It is amazing though that I truly did not get found out, at least as far as I know. But I think it is because I was left home alone...all the time. Idle hands are the devils workshop!
I was about 10 or 11 when I was able to get on a bike and ride to the mall, I remember the store, they had a great baby section. Boxes of cloth diapers, plastic pants, pins, bottles, their brand of disposables. Its mind boggling with as much as I hung out in that section, I was never questioned.
Anyways, I got my necessities, a box of flat Curity diapers, the biggest I could find, a twin pack of "supersized baby pants" diaper pins a blue baby bottle and a package of the largest disposables I could get. Now that I think about it, that was a large load to ride on a bike home, and not be seen by anybody, friends etc.
I got it all home, now what to do with it. The immediate needs things went into a hanging bag that my mom used for winter clothes that just never got used anymore, i put them under the false bottom. The extras went into the attic, I had an attic access in my closet. I put the stuff under the insulation in a bag.
We had a big boat as well, we kept in South Florida. In my cabin, I removed some access panels and put things behind them. I also put some things in drawers in the hold.
Once we were having some maintenance done on the boat, and at the last second before leaving I got a hunch that they may remove one of those panels in my cabin to make a repair. Damned if I wasn't right, when we returned a few days later, the panel had been removed the item repaired and the panel refastened down. That would have been truly embarrassing and my Dad would have been brought in to the mix. He was a type "A" WWII fighter pilot who would hit prior to the questioning.
Out of all of this, only 1 thing was ever found, and that was 2 pair of the plastic pants that I was secreting away in the trunk of our car to drive down to the boat. My mother must have noticed that I was using a different door to go back and forth to the car and got suspicious. She later confronted me, holding them up and saying , "where did these super size baby pants come from"? I told her that my friends must have been playing a joke. She dropped it. I really know that she knew and was maybe hoping it was a phase.
Looking back only a couple of those places were very good. Most of them were pretty obvious if you poked around a bit.
Today, I still have to hide things from my son, 14, but my wife helps with that and aside from Christmas and birthdays he has no reason to poke around in his mothers closet.
So where did you guys hide your stiff, did it ever get found?
