Betty Givans:  

I always wanted to be a billionaire when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a silly idea. As it turns out, they were right. I usually blow off steam by throwing a fit, when that doesnt help I cruise the internet. I suppose the wildest thing I ever did in school involved Molly Thompson Timberlake. It was the day of the junior tryouts for class play...we literally ripped each other hose to smitherings and walked in and Mr. Banks failed to see the humor...it was wild.. I moved to Bowling Green shortly after graduation so Kelly (Adkisson) could continue his education. It never occurred to me that I could also go to school. I lived for a few years in Meade County then to Breckinridge County and then to Louisville...for the most part of the past 25 yrs. I have lived here. I moved because I have a nomadic nature. I love college basketball, I detest reality Tv shows...I have one dog, Bruce a mutt. I love to garden and be outdoors. I collect many different things...I use the nice word for it..Junque collector... Actually, I am quite surprised I am still alive...many many close calls.. The teacher I would most like to see again is no longer with us. Ivy Hawkins was the best teacher and a mighty fine lady. If I won $100 million, I'd give most of it to the needy, then spend the rest on my house, retirement and real estate. I suppose I am as happy as I would be doing anything other than what I am doing...I do however, wish I could do something to make a profound difference in this screwed up world in which we dwell. Someday perhaps.... My current age is 58. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be ancient. I was so completely correct. My most recent career aspiration is to use my degree in private investigations but I am just not certain in which area I would like to apply my knowledge. My first crush married the love of his life and they have two beautiful daughters and grandchildren..They are a fantastic family and I still think he and his wife are the "Bee's Knees". My best friend would tell you I'm crazy, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as crazy as well. The weirdest job I ever had was collections for Evergreen Cemetery...Expand for more
