Derrick's Story
My internet handle is "h4x354x0r" - the "133t h4x0r" spelling of Hackysacker." If you want to find me, just search on my internet handle. I'm all over the internet. Now, on to my "story"...
Had a spot of trouble with Johnny Law in Bonner Springs in 1980, ended up moving to Lawrence KS to complete HS
Was introduced to Hacky Sack summer of 81
Moved to KC area in 82 after HS grad
Got AA in Electronics Engineering at Johnson County community college in 84
Joined grind-away workforce in what was then a just-emerging computer industry
Got married in 86
Moved to Columbia MO in 94
Started a family in 95
Bonner Springs classmates would probably just remember me as a loner, goofball, and a dope-head. Some friends called me "the professor."
Lawrence High classmates would remember me as the hacky sack guy. I picked up Hacky Sack in the summer of 81 and spent my senior year at Lawrence High playing hacky sack all the time.
I kept playing hacky sack after HS, started competing in footbag...Expand for more
tournaments, did promotional work, and ran footbag tournaments from 84 to 97
I was Inducted into the Footbag Hall of Fame in 2005, am still an active footbag player, and have now been playing footbag for over 40 years. I set a Guinness World Record for Distance Travelled in One Hour While Controlling a Footbag in 2019. I have become a "Local Legend" on the Mizzou campus at the University of Missouri. I kick in Speakers Circle. I call it Hacky Circle. Search YouTube for "Half Naked Hacky Sack Champion" - that's me today.
Classmates might also remember me as an avid bicyclist; I've used a bicycle as my primary form of transportation for all but about 4-5 years of my life. So far, I've displaced about 250,000 car miles, not burned about 15,000 gallons of gas, and not emitted about 200 tons of carbon. I still ride to work and back every day.
