School
Biggest crush:probably sharon jones,she was the prettest girl in my class.
teacher mrs. manly (latin),she was great.
if i could do it all over again:
work harder to win the state wrestling championship,and study more to have a 4.00,when i completed HS. it would have made things easier when i attended UT.
funniest thing:me singing GOD bless america in LATIN,for my favorite teacher mrs. manly..
weirdest thing: Cotton Tarpley sticking me with a pencil in my knee,and the mark is still there today.
me singing "Sherry BABY' to Sherry(cheerleader) on the bus going to a football game.
a fond memo...Expand for more
ry is: marching through Cleveland Tennessee,to raise money to build the new cleveland high school,and being part of the 1st class to graduate from there.
College
i attended cleveland state for 2 years,then transferred to University of Tennessee,got a psych degree,but went into computers.
some of the crazy things at UT,were having 4 roomates and we all live in a house 1 block from the student center. we paid a total of $100.00,(all bills paid),
split between us...$20.00 a piece. in my 4th year,all my roomates got drafted to go to vietnam, two of them went to canada. i taught swimming,and coached high-school swim teams to put myself through college. i was in the march,at UT,when the Knoxville 22 were arrested(mainly to meet girls,was not much into politics).
i was 1 of the 1st pledges in the phi kappa tau fraternity, but only was a brother for 1 year. i went to Atlanta,ga for the Baron Pop fiestable,in early 1970's,,spent 4 dayes there..it was tooo wild and fun. may add more later.
