Actually, cucumbers aren’t all that cool.

I never wore “cool” clothes as a kid.  I pretty much missed all the major fads over the years.  Parachute pants, acid washed jeans, “Hammer pants,” and annoyingly bright neon colors were never found in my closet.

At the time I felt like I stuck out like a complete nerd in lame clothes.

Now, looking at pictures from my childhood, it turns out I just look like a regular kid.  Even better – all the “cool” kids actually looked a bit like clowns.
