DO YOU REMEMBER THE TIME?

When Ron Gillum got his head stuck (it wasn't really stuck) behind the pipe from the ceiling to the heater in Mrs. Waddell’s room adjacent to the library? I was in tears from laughing as I informed Mrs. Waddell of the apparent problem.

She immediately panicked and became angry all at the same time. Ron looked at me and very calmly said "old Red" is getting mad now. That landed us both in trouble.

When, on the last day of school (the seniors had been out 2 days earlier) that Joe Allen stopped his car beside study hall (un-air conditioned at that time) and threw several live chickens through the windows. The girls were all screaming and the boys were all practically rolling in the isles and the chickens were somewhat upset. Mrs. McLemore ran from window to window trying to get a license plate #. She later asked if anyone knew who was driving that car. Naturally, no one had any idea.

Kay, I really appreciate the task you have undertaken. I open my e-mail every morning and usually read yours first if you have sent me anything. I have been a realtor/investor for the last 30 years and have truly enjoyed it. Please keep the mail coming.
