Fortunately many of my worst Grooisms happen when I am the only one who
knows about them. The most embarassing one that went public was when I
volunteered to help set up targets for a women's archery competition.
There were two of us, and we got the string for the shooting line out
and pegged it down, and then after finding out the distances they were
to be shooting at, we taped out the distance for the first round and set
up the tripods. Then it was over to the shed and we wrestled these
enormous wound-straw targets down range to set them on the tripods.
These things were huge and really heavy. The organizer thanked us and
told us she had someone coming at the end to help her get them back to
the shed. Since I knew they were going to be shooting at two distances,
I said we could stay and move the targets for the second round. She
gave me a look that I later recognized as amazement and pity and told us
that they would just move the string.
