About Me — Scott Younkin

Hope to read you all soon

I guess the first thing about me was I kept jumping around. I did this so now I can practice bullet points.

  • Born in Illinois
  • School in Missouri. Got an M.D. but always was kind of itchy in the doctor suit. The best moment of those years was seeing Mott the Hoople at the Fox Theater.
  • More training in Vermont and New York. The first guy I met in Vermont picked me up hitchhiking and showed me the teepee where he lived. Later he took a bunch of us to a lake where you could skinny dip and there were two girls sitting on a rock playing clarinets. Later still I rented a house IN a nudist colony (I was a civilian non-nudist). It was on a lake where you couldn’t swim unless you were nude. Our Newfoundland would chase the swimmers trying to rescue them but was perplexed because their instinct is to grab swim trunks. In the winter the nudists would wear a down coat but no pants.
  • Wanted to stay in Vermont but no jobs so went to Iowa
  • Got a job with a bull weasel. One time he grabbed me by the tie and pulled me out of a hall into a coat closet to tell me he didn't like my sports coat. He calculated his net worth every day and showed it to me.
  • Job back in Illinois. Not kidding the clinic used “how smart you are” as one…
