Frank's Story

Giving me a keyboard time and twenty thousand spaces to say anything...well that's absolutely the dumbest and regretful proposition I've ever been offered - and Lord knows I've been solicited to do stuff that's, well...dumb! So I'll just write something here that isn't too provoking and leave it. Being this is Classmates and anchored on all about alumibettes, school, teachers n stuff, let me open with apparently something that has uniquely captured the souls of too many people this year. And in my doing so, simultaneously and spontaneously have some folks who've not yet learned to just turn the damn page, mumbling about that they haven't heard from me in way too many years, and that guy is still pissing me off... Though not deeply politically minded, may I suggest we give Teacher Of The Year for 2020 to The Donald? For this clown taught us mightly that you can do a real good job and still should be fired if your attitude sucks - because nobody likes a prick. YEA or NA? Like many through their RP years, the Class of '76, was an unenlightened crew from Joyz that flipped from a classroom to the next class by strutting down some stairs, past scores of friends and classmates as we talked and gave a dozen greetings along with a few goofball insults during every hall muster. Now some 45 years later, with a few Alumi already retired as teachers in that same school down in Veteran's Park, when kids change classes at the end of a period, it is absolutely quite, empty, haunting and dish...Expand for more
eartening. All over the state and country and in each hemisphere, ain't no kids in school...and they ain't at home banging on their drums all day either. They're in class and they called it remote learning. For the 1st time of civilization, kids are going to class attended by classmates and teachers while sitting on the edge of their beds, getting edjamakated while openingly munching on Devil Dogs or chips, or both. This is not like home schooling and it's been a nightmare for most parents and a prolonged disaster for the many moms that still got a job or a career. It's been 9 months now and consumed 2 school years, and because the kids and teachers showed us their We Can Do This mantra, we'll leave it to the grad students to finish telling the story about the Covid Class of 2021. So in the interim, may fortune and goodness visit these young adults often as have to most of our Class. Though I know a few from our crew that are living years of homelessness or have struggled immensely. I am we - as you are her and they are them like she is me all because he is us. So if inclined, or you got it, or perhaps your lifestyle allows you to do so, help out another or stick with a truly WORTHY charity...and don't forget to buy your grannybrats ice cream OFTEN. WE are not old, we are finally mature and we are not out of shape, for we are living beyond our wildest expectations, so we earned this embraced relaxed state of health. Me? OMG! Woo-hoo, blah, blah, blah and all that jazz...
