Gary's Story

It all started at Liberty Elementry School. One of the first Teachers I can remember was named Mrs Sergeant. Now that is strange but you'll have to read my entire story to find out why it's strange. If my calculation are correct I began school around 1964. Which isn't strange because alot of other students started school at that time also. I wasn't alone I remember riding the bus and singing our favorite song God bless the Bus Driver, Bus Driver, for bringing us here. I remember Art class I believe the teachers name was Mrs Love. I also remember being caught by her with some not so appropriate material for a fourth grader to have at that time. I always heard that the Human Body was an Art Form. So I brought one of my Uncles Playboy Magazine to school with me and got caught. So much for Art. After moving on to Jr High, things were pretty boring for awhile till I got to Mr Kopkes Science class. I spent more time at the Principles office then in class. We set the tables and chairs on fire during class and they had to call the fire department. Then there was Math, Oh boy Mrs Warzynski. Boy did she use to smell good. That was the only class where I ever wanted to sit up front. Then came High School. Well it was always said that it was better if the Principle doesn't know your name. But in the first few months Mr Grossi knew me bye my First, Middle and Last Name. If I added all the days I missed due to expuslsions and absentees I missed probably two years of School. Some of the most memorable things I did was setting off a a whole box of fireworks under the bleachers where the Faculty wa...Expand for more
s sitting. It was reported that one of the Teachers had a Heart attack because of the Fireworks. But can't really remember that because I was suspended that day again. I remember being caught doing Dounuts in the Parking lot by one of the Teachers the name fails me but possibly Mr Edwards or something like that. Anyway all I remember is doing the Dounut and and he dives through my window and tries to shut my car off and at that Moment I knew what I wanted to do with the rest my life. BE A STUNT DRIVER I remember making it another three or four turns with him hanging onto my throat with one hand and trying to stop my car with the other. End result 15 minutes of fun and two weeks of suspension. I remember taking a Lanuage (German). Why, because they had the same kind of letters we had. And I thought to myself this can't be that hard. Anyways when will I ever use German. Well hush my mouth look where I'am at now. Living right smack dab in the MIDDLE OF GERMANY. And thinkig to myself I should have paid more attention in that class. So now back to that Teacher named Mrs Sergeant. After seeing that my life wasn't going nowhere fast and I was definately in need of discipline. I quit school and joined the US Army. There was alot of people there named Sergeant. Best thing I ever did. So now they train me and send off to a place where I wished that I had learned more stuff in school; Germany. And now after almost thirty years of being away from school I can still remember some of the best time of my LIFE AT WEIR JR HIGH and WEIR SR HIGH. GO RED RIDERS GO.
