56. Neil Young and bullying
When Neil Young was in elementary school, he was very shy and quiet and suffered a great deal from bullying. One day in school he went to the front of the class and asked the teacher if he could borrow the enormous unabridged dictionary. He then quietly carried it back to his seat and smashed the dictionary alongside the head of the worst bully - knocking him out cold. He said the bully never bothered him after that. Neil said it was definitely worth the day and a half suspension.
