Elrod's Story

Life After graduating from Fairview I traveled to Europe and Asia, settling in Tibet for additional educational purposes. During the first pogorom by the People's Republic of China, I was captured and incarcerated in their correctional facility under the Forbidden City. It was there that I received my graduate degree in Mime Sciences. I escaped the Forbidden City disguised as a Corporal in the Red Guards, using my mime skills to hide the fact that I spoke no Chinese. The next few years I lived on an island in Greece while I worked on a new zipper replacement product I conceived while in Tibet. A businessman there in Greece bought my invention, making the rest of my life most secure. He wanted to name the product after himself but Onassis was too hard to spell, so we named the invention after my fifth wife, Velcro Whizzel. Velcro was born Velcro Rodman, a Norweigan/Watusi.

His "nom de voyage" was his mother's maiden name. I hear he was trying to get into athletics. Perhaps some day he will succeed. I lost track of Velcro when she relocated to Waco, TX where she joined a religious order, The Branch Davidians. I have since returned to Tibet where I am spearheading an archaeological survey seaching for burial traces of the elusive Yeti. During the winters when it is too cold to dig, I bide my time developing a motor fuel from Yak chips and a suntan lotion with an SPF of 3,060,013. I am happy now in the zenith of my productive years. I plan to stay here for some time unless there is a class reunion that needs my attendance. Nah, been there, done that. The majority of folks who went to FHS when I was doing time there were too uppity to acknowledge folk of my ilk. Best to just let that sleeping dog lie.....
