How I got the name "Jackiepie." When I was in college, I worked in a sheltered workshop with handicapped adults. Andy was a man with Down's Syndrome. He hated water. Well, one day he came in from working outside with very dirty hands. He was talking to me, and all I kept saying to him was, "Andy, wash your hands." He finally had enough of me, and started waving his hands and screaming at me, "Jackiepie, go wash your hands!" I told my family the story that night, and from then on I've been "Jackiepie." |
