The Beer Brothers proudly present the best of.
00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:12.800
A podcast about the best of everything.
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:14.800
From the mundane to the ridiculous.
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:20.239
Just three buddies sitting around the card table talking about things that absolutely matter to no one.
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:22.800
So, yes, you're not wrong.
00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:24.559
That is our old school music.
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:25.839
I love that voice, by the way.
00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:27.120
That voice right there coming out.
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:29.760
That voice is Gandhi.
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:32.000
That that silky smooth sounds.
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:39.280
That voice right there is the voice of someone who only had about six billion dollars at that moment in their life.
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:40.000
Exactly.
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:43.200
And now they're, you know, approaching 20 bill.
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:49.920
I mean, look, when you own, when you're one of the initial investors in SpaceX, that's 100%.
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:50.960
Yeah.
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:51.520
Yeah.
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:57.359
The only thing I can admit to is that I have more in common with a wrestler than you guys do.
00:00:57.920 --> 00:00:58.320
That's true.
00:00:58.479 --> 00:00:58.719
Yeah.
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:00.640
The million dollar man, Ted DBA.
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:05.200
Money, money, money, money, money.
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:07.280
Shane O'Meck.
00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:11.359
Oh, that's great.
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:13.359
So you correctly we agree.
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:14.400
Ron Wrestler.
00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:27.120
We are doing a best of episode tonight because get on the We are doing a best of episode because it is the night before the start of the school year here in Franklin County, Kentucky.
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:29.359
School's school's starting tomorrow.
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:34.159
So what year is this year going into?
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:34.799
No joke.
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:36.799
I mean, I would joke and say it's like 126.
00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:38.560
This is year 33 for me.
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:38.799
Yeah.
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:39.680
Hey, real quick.
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:40.400
In my career.
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:41.439
Give me knuckles.
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:45.200
Who here doesn't have a child in any form of school now at all?
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:45.840
Right here.
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:46.799
Boom, two of us.
00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:47.359
Boom.
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:47.840
Boom.
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:49.200
Shellock lock boom.
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:52.239
Who got to pay three college tuition bills this week?
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:54.319
Let me guess what the amount was.
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:56.000
Was it uh about$350?
00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:57.359
Let me tell you what.
00:01:57.519 --> 00:01:58.560
Oh, you're not pretty ready.
00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:05.200
There is I will find it while you're introing this, but there is one thing that me and Joe Biden have in common.
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:06.239
Okay, you sleep.
00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:08.240
And I will find it right now.
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:11.280
Okay, well, that's that's this is like a that's a teaser.
00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:12.080
That's a little teaser.
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:12.879
That's a little teaser.
00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:13.599
That's pretty cool.
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:30.479
So uh so long story short, we're gonna do a best of uh some some nostalgia, but it's school school supplies that we grew up with, school, what were the things that we had to have, what were the things that we cherished when we went back to school?
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:32.719
And first day back prep.
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:33.520
Yes, exactly.
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:35.360
What was what was the prep?
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:37.360
What was what was the first day like back?
00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:38.560
What were the things that we did?
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:41.360
No, exactly the best of back to school.
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:43.360
Let's let's put this in reality.
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:50.560
Two of us here graduated from public education in the early nineties.
00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:51.199
Okay.
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:54.639
One of us here may have done it in the 1890s.
00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:58.240
It's been a long time ago for sure.
00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:05.280
That that's there's there's some validity to that that I did not graduate public school in the 1990s.
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:06.479
That is that is accurate.
00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:06.960
That's right.
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:08.159
It was a little before that.
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:14.639
So uh but I I mean it was before the Department of Education.
00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:15.280
That's true.
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:16.159
Well, that's true.
00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:19.360
It was before the advent of the mechanical pencil.
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:20.800
Oh, you know what?
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:21.360
Never mind.
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:22.319
I think we all were.
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:22.960
Anyhow.
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:24.080
All right, let's roll with it.
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:24.719
Okay.
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:26.479
So um Okay, I found this.
00:03:26.639 --> 00:03:26.800
Okay.
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:27.520
All right, let's go.
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:31.680
So so had to pay three college tuitions this week.
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:32.240
Yes.
00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:36.319
And like I said, this is when me and Joe Biden have things in common.
00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:41.120
Because here's what Joe Biden said when he was asked about how much it costs to send your daughter to college.
00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:41.439
Okay.
00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:58.080
Fantastic.
00:03:58.319 --> 00:03:58.560
Yep.
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.599
Yeah, so so me and Joe Biden have that in

common.
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:04.319
I almost asked Chris for a loan.
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:11.759
Yes, because first he has no children he's paying for in college, and second, because he's got SpaceX money.
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:12.879
A hundred percent.
00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:15.680
So Uncle Elon, you know.
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:26.800
So, but now as we get into the things that we cherished in going back to school, I can't wait to hear the different perspective that some of us have.
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:28.240
That's ultra the rest of it.
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:35.759
Because I have a feeling that there are two of us that are not going to share the same advantages, let's just say.
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:36.959
And that's okay.
00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:37.439
Right.
00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:43.279
It's we hey, it's it's a unique world, and all of us bring something unique to it.
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:44.160
So let's hear it.
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:44.639
Yep.
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:57.279
So what the first question is what would be the one thing that you would look back on your childhood and say, that was probably the coolest thing that I just had to have and was able to have.
00:04:57.519 --> 00:05:01.439
Uh my favorite going back to school supply.
00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:07.120
Now that you've you've tasted the coffee at least, I'm I'm proud of you for doing that.
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:08.000
Now I'm drinking it.
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:14.000
Now you're now you can make that anytime.
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:14.480
That's great.
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:14.959
Awesome.
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:16.480
So would Janie like that?
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:17.279
Yes.
00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:21.439
I think anybody who even remotely likes the smell of coffee would like that.
00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:21.759
Yeah.
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:23.439
That's just a that's delicious.
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:25.120
That's a double shot of espresso.
00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:27.759
So it was one shot for you and one shot for you.
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:29.199
So I'm getting a double shot of espresso.
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:29.600
Yeah.
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:30.319
Double, double.
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:30.879
Yum.
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:31.199
All right.
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:32.000
So what anyway?
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:32.720
All right.
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:38.720
So the the one thing that you would look back on and say, man, that was the coolest school supply.
00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:41.439
That, you know, all the cool kids had to have this.
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:43.279
I actually got this or whatever.
00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:47.439
What in your mind was like, oh man, that was that was something that was special?
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:48.399
Go ahead.
00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:53.680
I remember getting a trapper keep trapper keeper folder pack.
00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:54.079
Yep.
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:57.199
And it was pretty cool because I had a folder for each class.
00:05:57.279 --> 00:06:02.079
And and, you know, when you're in fifth grade, sixth grade, that was kind of a it was kind of a cool deal.
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:04.399
Did you get one with a picture on it or just a solid color?
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:04.959
Just solid.
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:05.600
I got solid.
00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:06.480
Mine were always blue.
00:06:07.040 --> 00:06:07.920
When the trapper keeper came out.
00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:13.519
Mine were.
00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:15.040
Holy cow.
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:19.360
I never even got one.
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:21.040
They hadn't made them.
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:24.240
If I'm not mistaken, the trapper keeper came out in like 83.
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:25.519
And that was all I could tell.
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:27.360
They hadn't made them.
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:29.360
Mine, mine were.
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:30.560
I'm never gonna get over that.
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:32.560
Third grade, fourth grade, fifth grade.
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:38.240
Well, my mommy got me one for science and one for algebra.
00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:40.639
Did you get a new one each month?
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:43.519
But the trapper keeper.
00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:54.399
I can say without a doubt, right now, since you brought up Trapper Keeper, that's the one thing that I always wanted.
00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:59.279
Because let's face it, you were lame if you had a cat folder or a Pac-Man folder or something.
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:02.160
But if you had a trapper keeper, you were cool.
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:04.639
Mine was actually an off-brand.
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:06.319
It was a frapper meeper.
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:12.800
But that's the only thing I ever got that I really truly wanted.
00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:14.720
And we can get into the rest of the stuff in a minute.
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:16.319
But I trapper keeper was cool with me.
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:17.920
You had the sports one, didn't you?
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:19.040
No, I did not.
00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:22.240
I never got a frapper keeper or a trapper keeper.
00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:24.240
I honestly never had one.
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:28.639
Um that was uh that that was an unfulfilled wish for me.
00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:30.959
Did you get the you didn't get the Radio Shack version even?
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:32.720
Uh no, Radio Shack.
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:34.399
Because they made the knockoff everything else.
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:37.199
No, tandy, the tandy trapper keeper.
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:38.399
That's good.
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:41.040
No, um, so or realistic.
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:50.319
That was um I I'm gonna go just to something that was simple, but golly, I looked forward to it every year.
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:52.560
And that was the NFL pencil.
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:53.759
Yeah, I had some of those.
00:07:53.920 --> 00:07:54.160
Yes.
00:07:54.720 --> 00:08:04.079
And um we had uh there was a pencil
machine in the in the office of the school, and you put a nickel in and you get a pencil.
00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:06.720
And can you give me a pencil while you're up?
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:08.879
It'll cost you a hard nickel.
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:21.279
And they were they were a nickel to get uh an NFL pencil, and you'd turn the thing, and doggone it, if I'd get like the Chicago Bears or something, or the Baltimore Colts.
00:08:21.439 --> 00:08:21.839
Oh, that's great.
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:23.120
That's that's you know, yeah.
00:08:23.759 --> 00:08:27.199
I always wanted a Bengals one, and it seems like I never got a Bengals one.
00:08:27.519 --> 00:08:29.120
What's the statute of limitations?
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:31.600
Well depends on what kind of act it is.
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:35.600
Okay, if it's a felony, it's unlimited in the great state of Kentucky.
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:36.879
Yeah, oh that's not a felony.
00:08:36.960 --> 00:08:37.519
All right, go ahead.
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:41.120
Yeah, I I if it's less than a thousand dollars, it's a misdemeanor, it's one year.
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:49.120
I was a man of uh uh a boy of Simple Pleasures, and uh that that simple pleasure was getting that NFL pencil every year.
00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:49.440
Yes.
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:51.519
Pencils, Greg, did you get pencils?
00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:53.120
Did you get Ticonderoga?
00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:55.919
Did you get the nice yellow ones?
00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:59.200
I had the yellow number twos, not the high end one.
00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:03.039
Did you get the 2.5s that didn't work on the uh standardized tests?
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:04.000
No, but here's what's funny.
00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:06.559
I can tell you I've grown possible.
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:07.919
It's ridiculous.
00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:08.799
Yeah.
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:14.799
So let me I'll tell you about my pencils in a second, but I never could stand Gold Lemay.
00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:20.799
If you needed a pencil and a teacher gave you a choice pencil because they were real soft and they were really soft writing, and they were terrible.
00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:21.120
Uh-huh.
00:09:21.279 --> 00:09:22.399
I always liked the other ones.
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:27.840
All of my pencils when I was a child were blue, navy blue, and you'll never guess what they said on them.
00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:30.080
Did they have the royalists on them?
00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:31.919
They they had the presidential ones.
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:34.000
Did they have the presidential seal on them?
00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:37.279
Did they honestly did they have your family crest on them?
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:40.080
No, but I can tell you what they did say.
00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:40.480
Yes.
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:42.240
Commonwealth of Kentucky.
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:44.799
You owned the most lame.
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:46.720
Got it.
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:51.519
Never forget going to
surprise.
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:55.279
We do all our back-to-school shopping at Hills in in Lexington, number two.
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:56.000
It was called Hills.
00:09:56.480 --> 00:09:56.960
Beverly.
00:09:57.120 --> 00:09:57.679
Of course.
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:00.240
Of course they did it in the Hills.
00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:03.759
And what they didn't get there, we'd get it at Hex, which was another like Kmart.
00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:04.879
The Hills of Beverly.
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:08.159
Hills and Hex and Kmart and Walmart are all about the same.
00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:10.399
I think Hills was about a four steps down though.
00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:13.360
But uh, I'd always like mom, mom, mom, I want these pencils.
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:14.960
She's like, No, I got your pencils.
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:19.440
Um I'd get home and I'd have a stack of Commonwealth of Kentucky pencils to you.
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:20.000
Perfect.
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:20.559
All right.
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:25.200
I mean, there's benefits of being the biggest landowner in the state.
00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:35.120
So what were outside of that one thing, obviously, um, let's move on to what would be the next big thing that you had to have.
00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:38.080
Now remember, we're we could talk lunchboxes here.
00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.639
We could talk about lunchbox, always had the brown bag.
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.720
Okay, but that was gonna be what I was gonna say because lunchboxes were a big deal.
00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:47.279
Did you eat school lunch or did you pack your lunch?
00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:50.799
I uh I've got a packed lunch every day.
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:53.120
And I'll I'll explain and you liked it.
00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:55.279
I'll explain I was the school lunch person.
00:10:55.440 --> 00:11:03.120
No, I'll explain what my lunch was because once I got old enough to make it, so when I was like eight, I had to make it myself.
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:08.639
But up until that time, I had the same, I had the same lunch every day.
00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:12.480
Uh, a fried egg on on bread with mustard.
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:13.679
It was an egg sandwich.
00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:16.399
Okay, I like your people beat you in the afternoon.
00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:24.159
And it was cold, a cold egg sandwich, a cold egg sandwich on um call scudder bread every day.
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:25.600
And I ain't no lie.
00:11:25.840 --> 00:11:33.440
Mustard, egg, and it was and then my mom says, you know, once I got old enough, she's like, You gotta fry this egg anymore.
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:34.720
I don't have time for you.
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:38.240
So I started learning how to fry an egg in the morning and make my sandwich.
00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:40.080
So let me ask a question about that.
00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:41.840
Yes, I have I have lots of questions.
00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:43.519
And that's it's a brown bag.
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:44.399
That was a brown bag.
00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:45.919
But let me ask a question.
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:46.639
Yes.
00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:47.440
Okay.
00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:48.399
Yep.
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:50.639
Was it a hard fried egg?
00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:51.120
Yes.
00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:52.799
Oh, yes, completely hard.
00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:55.519
Like no, yeah, like brown on the edges 100%.
00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:56.320
Yes.
00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:57.200
Yum, I'm perfect.
00:11:57.519 --> 00:11:58.080
Yes.
00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:58.799
Yeah, perfect.
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:00.799
That's the only way you could eat that egg cold.
00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:02.720
You can't eat a runny egg cold.
00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:03.200
No.
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:10.480
Yeah, it's it it it was I I don't know that I've ever known anybody to bring a fried egg sandwich for squirrel.
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:13.919
That was my honestly, I don't believe that I ever saw that.
00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:16.000
Or at work or anywhere.
00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:20.960
And if it was a really, really special day, I'd get a can of pudding.
00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:26.159
The little cans of pudding that had the little, you know, did you ever have a can of pudding?
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:26.480
No.
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:28.559
I don't recall pudding.
00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:31.200
I used to have a can of pudding, and that was a good day.
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:32.639
Like Del Monty pudding.
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:35.279
Oh, the snobby guy.
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:35.840
Right.
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:37.279
So you hung out with Chris a little.
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:39.360
Of of the Monty pudding, Del.
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:39.919
Let me clear.
00:12:40.639 --> 00:12:49.759
Chris had the workers make the pudding and just take off the skim off the top, but he had the pudding skin that was delivered to him.
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:55.120
I hated that S-cargo that I had to take.
00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:59.519
By the way, I've never heard it called Mandad Boog Boogaloo caviar.
00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:02.320
I've never heard it called Pudding Skin, but that's exactly what it is.
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:03.840
Exactly what it is.
00:13:04.000 --> 00:13:05.360
And Jello would get skinned too.
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:06.080
Heck yeah.
00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:06.879
That was terrible.
00:13:06.960 --> 00:13:07.200
All right.
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:12.159
I was only allowed to take my lunch on when we had like a field trip, a school field trip like Shakertown.
00:13:12.320 --> 00:13:14.799
And then the only thing I was allowed to take.
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:19.039
So how was to go visit your other house on the school field trip?
00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:22.559
This was this was peanut butter and honey sandwich.
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:23.519
Oh yeah, that's good.
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:24.399
Yeah, that's good sandwich.
00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:24.960
That's good.
00:13:25.120 -->
00:13:29.120
With uh a bag of whatever chips we had, you know, and in a not even a Ziploc bag.
00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:30.000
This was before Ziploc.
00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:31.039
It was a sandwich bags.
00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:32.480
Yeah, that had the little that was.
00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:33.279
Folded over.
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:34.080
Yeah, fold over.
00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:38.240
And uh probably a Pepsi free wrapped up in aluminum folded.
00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:40.080
Aluminum floil around the can, man.
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:40.960
Keep it cold.
00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:43.600
The problem is my sandwich would be cold too when I get it.
00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:46.639
Yeah, but honey and peanut butter, because like, oh, it's gonna get hot.
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:48.720
And you and I'm like, can I get jelly at least?
00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:54.240
No, when I told when I told Ava about having the egg sandwich every day, she's like, Well, did you heat it in the microwave?
00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:54.879
I'm like, what the fuck?
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:55.679
Microwave didn't exist.
00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:58.720
I had a cold egg sandwich every day of my life.
00:13:59.120 --> 00:13:59.440
Electricity.
00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:00.480
Why would you have a worry about it?
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:02.720
I mean, you had to go start the fireplace at school.
00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:04.240
Now, uh, but you had a lunch box.
00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:05.440
You had a lunchbox.
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:07.200
I had a lunchbox.
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:08.000
Which one?
00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:10.639
Uh I had a baseball lunch box.
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:11.919
I was gonna say, I was gonna guess.
00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:14.080
And it had the little thermos that come in.
00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:14.799
Yes, yeah.
00:14:15.039 --> 00:14:17.840
I did have one of those at one time, I must admit.
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:20.320
99% of the time I ate school lunch.
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:23.600
And and Fridays, the rectangle pizza.
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:24.320
And corn.
00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:26.639
And corn was as good as it got.
00:14:27.200 --> 00:14:29.039
And we got we had fruit cocktail with it.
00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:30.720
On a on a cheese.
00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:31.759
We had a block of cheese.
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:33.440
On a very Reagan cheese.
00:14:36.240 --> 00:14:36.720
That was the best.
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:39.360
Sometimes we had the Reagan cheese in the lunch.
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:41.759
That was that was fantastic.
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:45.360
Occasionally it was a cheese sandwich with mustard on it.
00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:46.720
That's because government cheese.
00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:49.120
That's because the fat content has to be a million dollars.
00:14:49.360 --> 00:14:51.120
It was awesome, is what it was.
00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:55.519
Um so but so okay, let me you work in the schools.
00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:59.679
You know why was that rectangle pizza so
good?
00:14:59.840 --> 00:15:03.039
I mean, I people try to recreate anywhere else.
00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:04.320
Yeah, people try to recreate it.
00:15:04.720 --> 00:15:05.519
It is not as good.
00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:07.440
It's oh, that was so good.
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:09.440
And I'll I'll give it, I'll give you another one.
00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:15.759
Occasionally my mom would let me eat the school lunch, and Thursdays was always cheeseburger day or hamburger day.
00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:17.039
It varied week to week.
00:15:17.200 --> 00:15:17.440
Right.
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:25.600
That was a fantastic day because they had the you know regular old cheeseburgers or whatever, but they had fries and they were really fried.
00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:25.919
Right.
00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:26.799
Fries.
00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:29.440
Oh yes, that was some good easy.
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:31.039
What was your favorite school lunch?
00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:44.799
So when I went to my original elementary school, which they ended up closing when I was after my second grade, between second and third grade, mom would always send me with a check, and I'd have to go stand in line on Monday mornings and and give the principal my check for my lunch.
00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:46.080
A traveler's check?
00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:48.799
And I think correct me if I'm wrong.
00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:50.879
I think lunches back then were like 45 cents.
00:15:51.039 --> 00:15:51.200
Okay.
00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:54.639
But mom would always write a check so she could, you know, make sure it was paid.
00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:59.120
Well, the problem is, and I only had to eat school lunch and I deduct it off their own taxes.
00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:00.320
I hate milk.
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:01.600
I hate milk.
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:08.159
And I didn't like half the crap they cooked at school besides the pizza, but I would pick around it or beg chips off people.
00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:15.039
When I got to the new school and they started busting me to the because with all the rich kids, to all the rich kids like that.
00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:15.919
With all the others.
00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:16.240
Right.
00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:16.639
Right.
00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:18.240
With all of my fellows.
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:18.480
Right.
00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:21.200
When they sent me for the people who lived down below me.
00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:24.799
When they sent me to the rich kids school, uh because they closed my school.
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:28.879
At least you know, um, mom would send in a check and I'd have to take it to the office.
00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:32.240
But anyhow, up until high school, you know, the pizza was the best.
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:35.120
When I got to my high school, mom's like, you're on your own.
00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:37.440
You know, lunch by that time was a dollar five.
00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:39.120
I'll never forget when I was in high school.
00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:40.960
I was like a senior, it was a dollar five.
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:42.720
Sometimes I would skip lunch.
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:50.639
I still didn't drink milk, but at Franklin County at the time, and I don't know if they do or not, they had a salad line bar, a baked potato bar, a hamburger bar, and a pizza bar.
00:16:50.879 --> 00:16:52.320
All fork every day.
00:16:53.039 --> 00:16:54.720
And I that's how I don't know how county is now.
00:16:54.799 --> 00:16:55.279
And a hot line.
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:55.919
So it's five meals.
00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:57.519
You had a hot or two, whatever the hot thing was.
00:16:57.600 --> 00:17:03.600
And I'd always go to the burger line because I love their fries, but the burger was I mean soybeans is what it was.
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:11.119
But I would peel the bun back and put a whole bag of fries on top of my burger and eat that, and they sold water, I'd pay that out of pocket.
00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:12.880
That was the best lunch to me.
00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:14.640
Was that soy burger with fries and water?
00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:15.599
But I was in high school.
00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:18.000
Did you ever have school breakfast growing up?
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:18.400
No.
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:19.359
A couple times.
00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:19.839
Yeah.
00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:20.640
Uh school.
00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:21.440
Not daily.
00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:21.920
Not daily.
00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:22.640
We didn't.
00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:25.440
I I never had it daily, but occasionally.
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:29.440
Oh, there was most days it was just a thing of cereal or whatever.
00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:36.160
But on Thursdays, the same day as the burgers, on Thursdays, they had a really good school breakfast at my elementary school.
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:41.119
And it was eggs that were scrambled eggs, but they were like soft and kind of powdered.
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:43.519
Oh, no, they were no, these were real eggs.
00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:44.559
That's the way they're supposed to be.
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:45.279
There were real eggs.
00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:46.319
Real okay.
00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:47.680
And they were a little runny.
00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:51.680
And they may have even put some government cheese in them because they were just so even better.
00:17:52.079 --> 00:17:54.960
And oven toasted with tons of butter on it.
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:55.519
Toast.
00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:59.440
So it was those those scrambled eggs with that buttery toast.
00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:01.519
God, I'm mouthwatering thinking about it.
00:18:01.680 --> 00:18:02.000
Nice.
00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:05.359
So besides the food, let's get back to yeah.
00:18:06.160 --> 00:18:08.240
Yeah, so we talked about the lunchbox.
00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:09.279
I never had a lunch box.
00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:11.359
Well, I never took my lunch unless it was a field trip.
00:18:11.599 -->
00:18:12.880
What about a pencil box?
00:18:13.920 --> 00:18:15.839
I don't recall ever having a pencil box.
00:18:16.079 --> 00:18:18.000
I never had enough pencils to have a pencil box.
00:18:18.880 --> 00:18:20.319
I had to scavenge for pencils.
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:32.559
But I I remember faintly um like a bag, like a little zippered bag that my eraser would go in there and the compass and the um Protractor.
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:33.680
Protractor.
00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:35.359
Um, yeah.
00:18:35.680 --> 00:18:36.000
Yeah.
00:18:36.319 --> 00:18:38.160
So I never had a pencil box either.
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:42.960
And if I did, it probably would have said Commonwealth of Kentucky, but I didn't have a pencil box.
00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:44.960
But there was a guy in the store.
00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:46.079
I tell this story all the time.
00:18:46.160 --> 00:18:48.160
So probably would have said Ashford Stud.
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:51.680
When I was in second grade, there was a guy in third grade.
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:53.119
I'm not going to mention his name.
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:57.119
When he turned 16, he bought a pink Cadillac convertible, like a 62.
00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:00.160
And long hair, nobody ever messed with this guy because he would kill you.
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:01.359
And he lived on Home Street.
00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:06.559
To this day, he's a mechanic and a drummer in a band and probably one of the nicest guys you ever meet in your life.
00:19:06.960 --> 00:19:08.799
But back then, you assumed the worst.
00:19:09.599 --> 00:19:13.039
He took a pencil box and lined it with shag carpet.
00:19:13.519 --> 00:19:14.079
That's hilarious.
00:19:14.240 --> 00:19:15.920
Now keep in mind, this is like 1980.
00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:16.480
That's pretty good.
00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:19.680
Lined it with shag carpet and drew like Kiss all over.
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:20.720
He's a big Kiss fan.
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:20.960
Uh-huh.
00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:22.960
And nobody screwed with that guy for that very reason.
00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:24.079
We were terrified of him.
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:26.000
But he had shag carpet in a pencil box.
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:28.480
And I'll never forget, I went home and told Dad, I need a pencil box.
00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:29.440
And he goes, for what?
00:19:29.599 --> 00:19:30.559
I said, I put my pencils in.
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:32.160
He goes, You don't have that many pencils.
00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:34.000
And I said, and I told him about this guy.
00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:35.839
He goes, stay away from that guy.
00:19:36.000 --> 00:19:36.319
Yeah.
00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:42.240
How about what type of substance did you buy for adhesive?
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:44.559
Uh you remember musilex.
00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:46.799
Did you have uh did you have rubber glue?
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:51.759
Rubber cement, or were you an Elmer glue kind of a person?
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:55.519
I had musilage, which was the brown snot stuff with the orange rubber tip.
00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:56.160
I had that.
00:19:56.240 --> 00:19:59.359
Yeah, where you could you'd like squish it down and rub it across the room.
00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:00.559
That's rubber cement.
00:20:01.039 --> 00:20:02.240
I I I've had that.
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:03.680
But why couldn't I get Elmer's?
00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:05.119
I always got musilage.
00:20:05.359 --> 00:20:07.680
Well, that's the that was the fancy brand.
00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:09.039
It was not the fancy brand.
00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:09.920
1000%.
00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:13.680
You could you could roll that up and make little fake boogies.
00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:17.759
You know what's funny is I think the state probably used that, is what I was assuming.
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:19.440
That's funny.
00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:25.279
Did you ever taste either rubber cement or fake?
00:20:25.920 --> 00:20:27.359
You never tasted Elmer's glue?
00:20:27.519 --> 00:20:30.400
No, but I would steal it from my neighbor, put it on my fingers and roll it around till my finger stuck.
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:31.200
Yeah, of course.
00:20:31.359 --> 00:20:31.920
Everyone did that.
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:33.759
You can still feel it right now, right?
00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:34.799
Yeah.
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:37.759
Uh what about the little pokey compass things?
00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:42.480
Did you ever get into uh trouble with your compass?
00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:43.599
No.
00:20:44.079 --> 00:20:45.119
Boy, you're a lamo.
00:20:45.759 --> 00:20:46.720
You know where you went to the city.
00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:48.000
You've got to remember.
00:20:48.240 --> 00:20:48.319
Yes.
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:51.440
I mean, here's what you're forgetting that Chris didn't get into trouble.
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:52.559
I apologize.
00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:54.880
Chris didn't have to go to class most of the day.
00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:58.319
Look, I thought about Chris yesterday.
00:20:58.480 --> 00:20:58.960
Yes.
00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:02.880
Hallie showed me something because she's leaving to go to college next week.
00:21:03.039 --> 00:21:08.799
She showed me this thing she's got on her iPad that takes notes and then it'll summarize things for her.
00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:11.599
And I said, So that's what it was like to be Chris growing up.
00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:12.079
100%.
00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:15.440
You had the servants in the classroom who took the notes.
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:19.680
So which reminded me, I mentioned it to you, and you made a great reference.
00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:20.079
Yes.
00:21:20.319 --> 00:21:23.440
So look, is this what it was like to be you growing up?
00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:24.000
Seriously.
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:24.799
What's that?
00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:31.839
Rodney Dangerfield in back to school when he sent his secretary into the class and she did shorthand for the notes.
00:21:32.400 -->
00:21:34.000
No, transcription.
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:37.039
She's on the little bloom, bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop.
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:39.599
And the professor came over and let Mr.
00:21:39.759 --> 00:21:42.480
Thorn Thornhill know this, please.
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:43.440
He will never.
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:43.920
Mr.
00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:44.400
Mellon.
00:21:44.640 --> 00:21:44.799
Mr.
00:21:44.880 --> 00:21:45.200
Mellon.
00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:45.599
Mr.
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:48.799
Mellon pass this class.
00:21:49.119 --> 00:21:49.279
Okay.
00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:53.359
Is that what it was like in fifth grade when you had the servants taking notes for you?
00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:53.759
No.
00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:54.240
All right.
00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:55.519
Here's another question then.
00:21:55.599 --> 00:21:57.519
Let's talk about what you wrote on.
00:21:57.759 --> 00:21:59.359
Did you get a big notebook?
00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:06.960
Did you You have loose notebook paper, and or if you did, was it wide ruled or college ruled?
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:08.799
So mine was wide ruled.
00:22:08.960 --> 00:22:11.039
I was wide ruled until I got to high school.
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:12.400
Until high school.
00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:15.039
And I I'm I'm wide ruled to this day.
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:15.680
Really?
00:22:16.319 --> 00:22:19.680
I am the only person in our law firm that uses wide ruled paper.
00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:20.240
Wow.
00:22:20.559 --> 00:22:23.200
That's a that's a fun that is a where is it?
00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:25.440
I very rarely have it fun facts.
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:26.480
That's wild.
00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:28.400
I used wide rolled paper to edit.
00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:30.000
That is a great fun fact.
00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:32.720
Now, funny story, side note.
00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:35.119
You invented wide rolled paper?
00:22:35.279 --> 00:22:38.720
If I use lines paper, which is my notebook I use is college.
00:22:39.279 --> 00:22:41.279
You never had to use paper, your servants did.
00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:43.119
Do you know what I used in college?
00:22:43.839 --> 00:22:44.960
Yes, we do.
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:47.359
We know lots of things that you used in college.
00:22:47.680 --> 00:22:47.920
Exactly.
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:49.519
They're on a band list.
00:22:50.400 --> 00:22:51.039
Graph paper.
00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:52.799
I use graph paper all through engineering school.
00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:53.119
Okay.
00:22:53.279 --> 00:22:53.519
100%.
00:22:53.839 --> 00:23:04.640
And not because I used it as a graph, it's because you're drawing diagrams and doing all the and when you get into calculus and all that, it's easier to use a quadrueled graph paper.
00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:08.720
So to this day, I still prefer a blued quadruple graph paper to work on.
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:15.759
So one of our directors in uh at Central Office actually uses uh Jamie Miller, actually, our director of special ed.
00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:18.240
I always see her taking notes on graph graph paper.
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:19.519
But I guarantee it's quadrule.
00:23:19.599 --> 00:23:19.759
Yeah.
00:23:20.000 --> 00:23:20.480
Guaranteed.
00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:22.799
It's always the wide rule kind of guy.
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:27.920
I I like college rule once I got into high school because I like to write small.
00:23:28.079 --> 00:23:30.240
Um, but now I can't see it.
00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:32.160
So uh I need to go back to wide rule.
00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:32.799
Absolutely.
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:33.279
Yeah.
00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:45.920
So so in our supply clo supply room at my office, there is a huge stack of college rule legal pads, and then there's a really small stack of wide rules.
00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:46.559
It's gonna be a good one.
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:48.240
And everybody knows not to touch those.
00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:50.480
That guy needs to use regular paper.
00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:51.440
All right.
00:23:51.759 --> 00:23:54.720
Let's talk about the big one in the the big elephant in the room.
00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:56.240
What clothes?
00:23:57.119 --> 00:23:58.000
We'll get back to that.
00:23:58.240 --> 00:23:59.279
Your vast wardrobe.
00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:00.319
Crayons.
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:02.240
Well, look, there we go.
00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:02.960
Here we go.
00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:04.400
We had this the other day.
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:08.880
You thought I used the I used the school's crayons.
00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:10.000
God's honest trick.
00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:11.279
Were they the fat ones or the fit ones?
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:15.839
I didn't we had thin ones at Harold Elementary School, but I didn't have my own.
00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:16.160
No.
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:19.440
I always was envious of people like Chris.
00:24:19.519 --> 00:24:27.680
Yes, who had the huge variety box of 128 with the sharpener built in.
00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:28.240
Yeah.
00:24:28.480 --> 00:24:35.440
Uh I mean, my favorite color that I never got the color with was cornucopia, which was this blue color.
00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:35.839
Uh-huh.
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:39.440
And I know Chris has had doubles.
00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:43.119
It's like it's like the infamous 10 millimeter socket.
00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:44.880
You probably had like 12 of them.
00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:48.160
You know what's funny is I do have like shocking wrenches.
00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:52.160
I have more 716s and 10 millimeter wrenches and sockets on do anything else.
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:52.400
See?
00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:53.119
Well, there you are.
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:53.599
No surprise.
00:24:54.799 --> 00:24:57.039
So, in other words, he had burnt sienna and raw umber.
00:24:57.920 --> 00:24:58.319
100%.
00:24:58.880 --> 00:24:59.839
That's funny that you say that.
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:00.880
Yeah, of course it is.
00:25:01.119 -->
00:25:04.240
But yeah, mom would only buy me the eight pack.
00:25:04.400 --> 00:25:05.599
This is God's honest truth.
00:25:05.680 --> 00:25:07.039
I mean, eight times twelve.
00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:07.839
Yeah, exactly.
00:25:08.079 --> 00:25:14.079
And I remember walking into class and I had my trapper keeper and my I had my crayons, and I'm looking over at his cell phone.
00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:17.839
I'm like, well, Jared over there's got a got a pencil sharpener.
00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:20.079
And the teacher had the list, you get a pencil sharpener.
00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:21.119
So I got the sharpener.
00:25:21.200 --> 00:25:26.319
You know, I look over and Ridditch or Doug or one of those guys would have a pencil sharpener that had the collection thing on it.
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:26.559
Yeah.
00:25:26.720 --> 00:25:30.720
No, I got the one I think mom used on her eyeliner or whatever, or whatever it is.
00:25:32.160 --> 00:25:32.640
Shaved everywhere.
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:33.920
So you get all of your desk.
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:36.960
I didn't have a sharpener of the first.
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:39.839
No, I had to go up to the front and go, no, no, no, no.
00:25:40.400 --> 00:25:41.119
No, no, crayons.
00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:41.920
That was for crayons.
00:25:42.079 --> 00:25:42.480
Let's be honest.
00:25:42.559 --> 00:25:42.799
Let's stop.
00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:44.960
I never had a crayon jar not.
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.960
Since ever on since we did movie references, the movie as good as it gets.
00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:49.599
Yes.
00:25:49.759 --> 00:26:02.000
Okay, when Jack Nicholson in the beginning of the movie is washing his hands and he's super hot water and he unropes uh unwraps one bar of soap of neutrogena soap and then throws it right away and then opens another one.
00:26:02.079 --> 00:26:04.160
That was him and his boxes of crayons.
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:06.720
He had a new box every day.
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:07.599
Well, let me tell you.
00:26:10.400 --> 00:26:12.880
So why did I have the eight-pack of crayons?
00:26:13.039 --> 00:26:14.880
Because you got a new set every day.
00:26:15.039 --> 00:26:15.279
Nope.
00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:20.079
The truth was, mom said you only need the basic colors.
00:26:20.319 --> 00:26:24.640
And I remember sitting there in class and the teacher's like, get your crayons out.
00:26:24.720 --> 00:26:29.200
And I reached over, I'm like, Can I borrow your peach or your blue-green or your green-blue?
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:31.039
Or remember peach was flesh tone cut?
00:26:31.359 --> 00:26:32.319
I don't remember that at all.
00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:32.960
I had eight.
00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:33.920
I had eight as well.
00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:34.720
That's all I read.
00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:36.240
But I didn't have any.
00:26:36.319 --> 00:26:40.160
I had the schools conglomerate that were the broken ones from the restaurants, probably.
00:26:40.640 --> 00:26:41.440
Why my cherries?
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:47.920
Why my painting ability is getting better is because I know how to mix colors because I had to come up with peach.
00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:52.640
I'll take my white one and my brown one, a little bit of red and some orange.
00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:53.279
There we go.
00:26:53.440 --> 00:26:56.480
Peach! Well, I remember mom's like, all you need is the basic colors.
00:26:56.559 --> 00:26:57.200
That's all you need.
00:26:57.359 --> 00:27:01.440
So when it came to markers, I remember having to have markers in like fifth grade.
00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:04.319
I got the felt tip, you know, the cheap blue and red.
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:05.920
Those are the expensive ones.
00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:10.480
The fact that you have markers, just red and blue.
00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:12.079
I had red and blue and black.
00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:14.559
Do you know who uses those particular felt markers?
00:27:15.359 --> 00:27:17.200
Do you the Commonwealth of Kentucky?
00:27:17.519 --> 00:27:24.559
Do you do you realize that if I wanted a wet style ink, I had to poke myself with my compass and use my blood?
00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:28.720
All right, I got a funny story to tell you guys.
00:27:28.960 --> 00:27:31.119
So, besides our crayons.
00:27:31.200 --> 00:27:33.119
What kind of do you have big pack or little pack?
00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:36.319
I had, first of all, they were called playcraft.
00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:37.359
They weren't crayons.
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:38.720
Those are the expensive ones.
00:27:38.880 --> 00:27:39.839
No, they were not.
00:27:40.160 --> 00:27:42.960
They were the cost-cutter version of crayons.
00:27:43.279 --> 00:27:44.160
So, yes.
00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:45.279
Uh yeah.
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:51.279
So I was thinking the other day, I remember for some reason you you had you brought this to us, our attention.
00:27:51.359 --> 00:27:52.720
We said this was a fun idea.
00:27:53.200 --> 00:27:54.799
Talk about a personality.
00:27:55.039 --> 00:28:02.319
And I didn't realize at the time how I don't know if Gutsy or I was trying to be smart or what, but I'm in fourth grade.
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:07.680
And at Hearn Elementary, which is now their new early learning village, it was all open classrooms.
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:11.759
And we had a place called the Pit, which is in front of the teachers, and they sit all in this big raised-up thing.
00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:14.079
It's now their like auditorium.
00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:17.359
There is no cafeteria in Hearn.
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:23.200
They would roll these big carts in and they'd have trays on them for lunch, and you ate at your desk.
00:28:23.680 --> 00:28:24.240
That's weird.
00:28:24.400 --> 00:28:25.200
It was weird.
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:32.319
And the teachers would call you up by Miss Morris or Miss Crossway or Miss Whoever, you know, and you and your class goes up.
00:28:32.640 --> 00:28:34.319
Well, every once in a while they try to make
it fun.
00:28:34.400 --> 00:28:37.279
You know, if you're wearing blue, go get whatever.
00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:44.079
And I was sitting there one day, and I don't know if I was feeling feisty or whatever, and they said, uh, if you're not wearing tennis shoes, you can get your tray.
00:28:45.920 --> 00:28:46.799
You had unpenny loaf.
00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:47.759
I know, I'm sorry.
00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:50.160
Alligator skin.
00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:54.079
Did they say if you're wearing a bow tie today?
00:28:55.279 --> 00:28:55.839
I stood up.
00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:58.160
If you're wearing Dior today.
00:28:58.559 --> 00:29:03.119
It uh it um sorry, I just got a text in real quick.
00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:06.480
Um anyhow, I got up and walked to Birmingham got my tray.
00:29:06.559 --> 00:29:08.960
And I get back, and everybody's around me's like, dude, what are you doing?
00:29:09.039 --> 00:29:10.160
You're wearing tennis shoes.
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:14.240
And I had on what we would call tennis shoes.
00:29:14.400 --> 00:29:17.200
And I said, I do not play tennis in these shoes.
00:29:17.279 --> 00:29:18.319
I do not play tennis at all.
00:29:18.480 --> 00:29:19.839
These are not tennis shoes.
00:29:20.480 --> 00:29:20.720
Right.
00:29:20.880 --> 00:29:23.279
He's got his own special outfit for when he plays tennis.
00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:24.160
Exactly.
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:28.240
It's gotta be an all-what, because we only play on grass.
00:29:28.559 --> 00:29:30.240
That's the only way a good tennis shoes.
00:29:30.559 --> 00:29:32.720
Slazenger makes my tennis shoes.
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:33.680
A couple things.
00:29:33.839 --> 00:29:34.880
But hang on, think about that.
00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:36.240
I said, I don't play tennis.
00:29:36.319 --> 00:29:39.359
These are not tennis shoes, these are simply shoes.
00:29:39.680 --> 00:29:41.599
All right, the teachers never said a word, nothing.
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:42.480
All right, Greg.
00:29:43.119 --> 00:29:55.599
So what are what are not necessarily stuff you had, but what are some of your most memorable things that happened in your school time?
00:29:55.839 --> 00:29:56.000
Yeah.
00:29:56.240 --> 00:29:57.200
So I got I got what?
00:29:57.440 --> 00:29:58.319
I got I actually have two.
00:29:58.559 --> 00:29:59.119
All right, let's go.
00:29:59.359 --> 00:30:02.400
The first one I got spanked in kindergarten.
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:02.799
Ooh.
00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:06.640
We had when I uh Harold, we had half-day kindergarten.
00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:07.599
What'd your teacher look like?
00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:09.200
Miss Parker?
00:30:09.279 --> 00:30:13.200
Yeah, she looked like she looked like Greg Dammer Valentine.
00:30:13.920 --> 00:30:15.519
Did you teach Jim too?
00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:17.359
We didn't have Jim.
00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:20.160
Our gym was a blacktop.
00:30:20.559 --> 00:30:21.279
Oh, I gotcha.
00:30:21.519 --> 00:30:25.920
But anyway, so she was mad, people were talking and stuff like that.
00:30:26.079 --> 00:30:27.599
And it was getting about lunch time.
00:30:28.400 --> 00:30:29.599
Look, I like my lunch.
00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:30.160
Yep.
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:34.559
So I raised my hand and she called on me.
00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:38.640
And I asked her what was for lunch, and she spanked me because I talked in class.
00:30:38.880 --> 00:30:41.440
Oh boy, that's not that was not well received.
00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:42.000
No.
00:30:42.319 --> 00:30:42.400
No.
00:30:42.720 --> 00:30:44.400
Did you ever get a spanking in school?
00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:45.119
No.
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:45.839
Did you?
00:30:46.000 --> 00:30:46.160
No.
00:30:46.480 --> 00:30:46.720
Okay.
00:30:46.799 --> 00:30:47.680
I got another one.
00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:48.240
Okay.
00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:51.599
This one was not well received either.
00:30:52.319 --> 00:30:57.440
So, you know, you've been in a classroom, you know, people start going to the bathroom and they don't really have to go.
00:30:57.839 --> 00:30:58.000
Yeah.
00:30:58.400 --> 00:31:00.000
So all these people.
00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:01.039
Second grade.
00:31:01.279 --> 00:31:02.079
Second grade.
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:08.960
All these people, you know, we were in a unlike unlike Chris's experience where it was marbled halls and things like that.
00:31:09.200 --> 00:31:09.920
Yes, of course.
00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:15.440
My second grade was in a trailer at Harold Elementary School.
00:31:16.480 --> 00:31:18.480
And I had to go to the bathroom.
00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:22.000
Number one, not number two, because nobody does that at school.
00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:23.440
No, that's ridiculous.
00:31:23.920 --> 00:31:24.960
So why would you do that?
00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:25.920
Number one.
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:28.240
And the teacher said, No, you can't go.
00:31:28.559 --> 00:31:32.480
People have been going people have been asking to go and they don't really need to go, you can't go.
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:34.960
I went and sat back down.
00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:38.160
I waited about five minutes, went and asked again.
00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:40.079
She said, No, I already told you you can't go.
00:31:40.960 --> 00:31:43.039
I was a resourceful young man.
00:31:43.279 --> 00:31:46.319
I walked to the back corner, let her fly.
00:31:46.480 --> 00:31:46.880
Absolutely.
00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:48.000
This was her senior year.
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:48.880
Second grade.
00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:50.319
I gotcha.
00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:51.519
Second grade.
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:54.079
Not well received.
00:31:55.119 --> 00:32:01.519
And and my mother did not take kindly to me not getting to go to the bathroom.
00:32:02.960 --> 00:32:03.839
Yeah, that's ridiculous.
00:32:03.920 --> 00:32:12.000
I mean, the fact that a teacher would deny uh, you know, I mean So that's two times I now I got spanked a few more than that.
00:32:12.480 --> 00:32:14.880
But those are
those are two that I didn't need.
00:32:15.119 --> 00:32:18.799
That happened in your school district with my son when he was in uh at Bridgeport.
00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:19.279
Really?
00:32:19.519 --> 00:32:21.039
And I had a little talking with the teacher.
00:32:22.079 --> 00:32:24.720
And uh had a me and Mart Marty Lale are still tight over there.
00:32:25.359 --> 00:32:28.559
I have I have had many discussions with employees about that.
00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:31.359
My mother was not happy.
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:36.640
Yeah, so I I I'll share, I'll share the it's a sad story.
00:32:36.880 --> 00:32:40.799
So, you know, Chris, I know you're not you so it's normal life.
00:32:41.039 --> 00:32:41.599
Normal life.
00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:42.000
Right.
00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:46.640
So I I was not very artistic.
00:32:46.880 --> 00:32:49.039
Uh I can barely draw a straight line.
00:32:49.279 --> 00:32:49.920
I tuned it.
00:32:50.079 --> 00:32:51.119
Yeah, exactly.
00:32:51.279 --> 00:33:00.319
So long story short, I um I love to I loved it when we had a coloring assignment.
00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:00.799
Okay.
00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:02.880
I love to color what you know.
00:33:03.680 --> 00:33:15.839
And it is so you would get like a little a little sheet of paper and it'd be like a a map of the 13 colonies, yeah, and you'd color in different colors for each one or whatever.
00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:16.960
Okay, I used to love this.
00:33:17.519 --> 00:33:23.200
So anyway, in second grade, I colored in this map and I was so proud of it.
00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:35.359
And then I took a black crayon and I outlined all of the states so they would have black outline to go around to differentiate them from the others, even though there were different colors.
00:33:35.599 --> 00:33:40.240
And I was super duper proud of this, and I turned it in.
00:33:40.559 --> 00:33:49.599
Okay, now when you got your your things back from the teacher, she wouldn't put like a grade on some of these things, she would put like stickers, right?
00:33:50.079 --> 00:33:55.200
And uh, if you got a you know, like a Clifford the Big Red Dog sticker, that was huge.
00:33:57.440 --> 00:33:57.920
Even better.
00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:02.000
Yeah, I got my paper back, and Mrs.
00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:13.760
Raimi, the teacher, had given me a Clifford the Big Red Dog sticker with a sheet over his head, and he had the big sad eyes, and she wrote on it, no black outlining.
00:34:14.000 --> 00:34:21.920
Oh my! And I still to this day remember that as like one of the crushing blows of negative reinforcement.
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:28.320
Clifford the big red dog had a sheet over his head, his little eyes going through the little holes, and he had looking all sad.
00:34:28.639 --> 00:34:30.079
It's terrible, yeah.
00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:31.519
Whatever happened to her.
00:34:31.679 --> 00:34:32.239
Uh, she did.
00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:33.440
She got hit by a car.
00:34:33.519 --> 00:34:33.920
She
did.
00:34:36.239 --> 00:34:37.840
She was old as dirt then.
00:34:38.239 --> 00:34:41.440
But uh, but it was funny because her and my mom were like big buddies.
00:34:41.599 --> 00:34:54.159
My mom was a teacher of first grade in the school, and uh that year we went out to her house uh on Thanksgiving morning to drop off some food for her because her husband had died or something.
00:34:54.320 --> 00:34:55.280
Did you poop in her yard?
00:34:55.519 --> 00:34:56.559
I wanted to desperately.
00:34:56.639 --> 00:34:59.599
I'm like, You know, there was a time, Janie.
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.159
You you all know my wife, obviously.
00:35:02.320 --> 00:35:04.559
There she got in trouble one time at school.
00:35:04.800 --> 00:35:10.800
And I can't, I honestly can't remember if she got spanked or not, but she got in trouble at school one time.
00:35:10.960 --> 00:35:12.159
You know what she got in trouble for?
00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:14.719
Reading a book while they were talking.
00:35:15.039 --> 00:35:15.760
Oh my god.
00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:20.320
She literally got in trouble for reading a book while the teacher was talking.
00:35:20.480 --> 00:35:24.639
I I would give rewards for kids if they would read a book in their off time.
00:35:25.039 --> 00:35:34.239
The only times I remember getting in trouble in school, and I was always terrified the teacher was going to tell my parents because whatever happened in school was gonna be so much easier than what happened when I got home.
00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:37.119
I mean, let's face it, big big Keith would have.
00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:42.000
Anyhow, in second grade, I remember having to go stand in the corner for talking.
00:35:42.559 --> 00:35:50.480
Um I remember in sixth grade, I got in trouble for talking and I had to write sentences.
00:35:50.719 --> 00:35:51.199
Yep.
00:35:51.760 --> 00:35:52.800
By Miss Banasse.
00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:56.000
Sentences the sentence, the sentence punishment sucked.
00:35:56.159 --> 00:35:56.639
Well, here's the thing.
00:35:56.719 --> 00:35:58.159
I don't I mean Did you ever have to do that?
00:35:58.320 --> 00:35:58.880
Uh I did.
00:35:59.199 --> 00:36:00.960
That was a punishment my dad would give you.
00:36:01.519 --> 00:36:02.400
Five hundred times.
00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:05.119
Well, this was like a hundred times I will not talk in class.
00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:06.719
So I just went, I I will not talk about it.
00:36:06.800 --> 00:36:07.599
Yeah, yeah, actually I did.
00:36:08.320 --> 00:36:08.480
Yeah.
00:36:08.880 --> 00:36:11.360
But it was like, that's the only time I remember getting in trouble.
00:36:11.519 --> 00:36:15.039
But I will tell you again, I was the I don't know.
00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:16.480
I don't know what my parents did to me.
00:36:16.559 --> 00:36:17.679
I remember being in fifth grade.
00:36:18.000 --> 00:36:30.000
Besides giving you everything that is impossible for a human to enjoy in Franklin County back then, starting when I was in second grade and it went all the way through fifth, they had something called Pegasus, which is you're all's GT now, the gifted and talented person.
00:36:30.400 --> 00:36:31.360
Of course, of course you do.
00:36:31.760 --> 00:36:43.360
But it was called Pegasus, but anyhow, so what would happen is one day a week you would go to this other part of the school and do all this, you'd learn computers and foreign language and all this crap, right?
00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:46.719
So long story foreign languages when you were in fourth grade.
00:36:46.960 --> 00:36:47.840
Uh second through fifth.
00:36:47.920 --> 00:36:48.239
But anyway.
00:36:48.880 --> 00:36:49.280
So yeah.
00:36:49.599 --> 00:36:53.039
So anyhow, but they they don't do that in public schools, right?
00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:54.000
This one's public.
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:55.199
This one's public.
00:36:55.679 --> 00:36:56.000
Nah, uh.
00:36:56.880 --> 00:36:57.280
Anyhow.
00:36:57.360 --> 00:36:57.440
No.
00:36:57.679 --> 00:36:58.159
So the problem.
00:36:58.719 --> 00:37:00.320
My wife's a public school employee.
00:37:00.480 --> 00:37:01.840
You're a public school employee.
00:37:01.920 --> 00:37:02.400
That don't happen.
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:03.119
It does not happen.
00:37:03.360 --> 00:37:04.239
Anyhow, yeah, go ahead.
00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:09.599
So I'd go to this class and you would miss um all day from your normal classes, right?
00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:10.079
Yeah.
00:37:10.239 --> 00:37:11.360
And then I'd go back.
00:37:11.519 --> 00:37:19.039
Well, I remember um this is again, this is in um this was in fourth grade, not fifth grade, fourth grade.
00:37:19.280 --> 00:37:27.280
Um, and uh my teacher at the time was Miss Yeast, and I had another teacher, I can't remember her name, Baker or something like that.
00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:39.199
But anyhow, I remember coming back in and they sent out uh they sent a re uh a letter home to my parents, and we were getting ready to go to my cousin's house and for sales for the you know, hung out all weekend, the pool and all that.
00:37:39.519 --> 00:37:53.440
And they send a letter home to my parents, and the next thing you know, my dad's given given me everything he can because I am apparently extremely behind on my assignments in Miss Yeast's class and Miss Miller, Miss Miller was her name, their classes.
00:37:53.679 --> 00:37:55.840
And I'm like, I don't know what you're talking about.
00:37:56.000 --> 00:37:57.119
I've done all this.
00:37:58.559 --> 00:38:01.440
So I get yelled at, didn't get to go to my cousins.
00:38:01.519 --> 00:38:08.880
I come in on Monday morning, I grab my workbook, and because dad told me, just go see Miss Yeast and have her mark what you need to do, and then go do the same thing with Miss Miller.
00:38:09.039 --> 00:38:10.719
So I get him a workbook so they mark all this stuff.
00:38:10.880 --> 00:38:11.679
Well, come to find out.
00:38:11.760 --> 00:38:14.639
I'm sitting there going, This was never
assigned to me.
00:38:14.880 --> 00:38:18.639
This was given to us or the class when I was in Pegasus.
00:38:19.760 --> 00:38:20.639
Well, you need to do it.
00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:22.079
That's your responsibility, pal.
00:38:22.480 --> 00:38:23.920
But hold on, and I'm like, I'm not gonna do this.
00:38:24.000 --> 00:38:29.280
So I remember I walked up to Miss Yeast, and I said, Can I go see Mr.
00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:30.719
Vickers, the principal?
00:38:31.039 --> 00:38:31.280
Wow.
00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:32.320
And she goes, What for?
00:38:32.480 --> 00:38:33.920
I said, I just need to sing.
00:38:34.239 --> 00:38:35.679
So she lets me, I go see Mr.
00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:37.039
Vickers, and I sit down in his office.
00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:45.360
Here I am, fourth grade, 10 years old, and I'm like, if I'm in this gifted and talented program and I'm missing work because of it, why am I having to do double work?
00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:46.559
That makes no sense.
00:38:46.800 --> 00:38:48.159
And he sided with me.
00:38:48.400 --> 00:38:48.800
Wow.
00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:50.960
Of course, do you ever know John Vickers?
00:38:51.119 --> 00:38:53.199
No, he was like 6'9, 6'10.
00:38:53.360 --> 00:38:54.400
Was it her and he was awesome?
00:38:54.480 --> 00:38:58.159
But yeah, I went and sat down with the principal and I said, This is bull.
00:38:58.639 --> 00:38:59.280
I'm not doing this.
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:00.400
And he sided with me.
00:39:00.639 --> 00:39:06.000
Well, I'm not I'm honestly I'm not shocked by that because of the power that your family has.
00:39:06.239 --> 00:39:06.880
Right, right.
00:39:06.960 --> 00:39:15.840
I mean, I mean the amount of uh I mean, I think that entire uh east wing of that school was was donated by your family.
00:39:16.159 --> 00:39:16.639
Ridiculous.
00:39:16.960 --> 00:39:19.679
Did you guys walk to school or did you ride the bus or your parents take you?
00:39:20.079 --> 00:39:22.880
Where you lived, I guarantee you either rode the bus or parents took you.
00:39:24.159 --> 00:39:29.440
Sherry Kahn drove the school bus and she drove like a maniac, and I rode the school bus.
00:39:29.599 --> 00:39:35.119
I usually rode with my uh mom because I actually went to the school that she taught at.
00:39:35.360 --> 00:39:42.639
I was supposed to go to the other school that was closer to the neighborhood, but since she taught there, she just wanted to keep an eye on me, I think.
00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:44.800
So you had people drive, yeah.
00:39:44.960 --> 00:39:45.920
I rode the school bus.
00:39:46.079 --> 00:39:47.760
I walked to school until they closed my school.
00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:52.079
Yeah, the school bus, uh, I think it was what what what was the brand of it?
00:39:52.159 --> 00:39:53.920
Uh Bentley, I believe.
00:39:54.639 --> 00:39:55.840
Noah It was weird.
00:39:56.000 --> 00:39:58.239
It said R R R on there.
00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:03.199
So I walked to school, kindergarten first and second, and then they started busing us.
00:40:03.360 --> 00:40:07.920
So Well, when you own so much land, it's not like you gotta walk far.
00:40:08.239 --> 00:40:13.199
Mom had to be at work by 7 30, so she would take me to school in the mornings and I'd ride the bus home.
00:40:13.360 --> 00:40:15.920
And Homer was our bus driver, I think is what his name was.
00:40:16.079 --> 00:40:18.960
Bus number 39, I still remember that, and I'd ride it home.
00:40:19.599 --> 00:40:24.079
And uh was a 39 model Rolls Royce.
00:40:24.239 --> 00:40:24.719
No, whatever.
00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:25.199
Yeah, it was.
00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:25.840
And that was terrible.
00:40:26.000 --> 00:40:27.519
Riding the bus was always awful.
00:40:27.599 --> 00:40:29.840
Yeah, they have they have air conditioning on them now.
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:31.119
Yes, on the case.
00:40:31.440 --> 00:40:32.559
Not on every single one.
00:40:32.719 --> 00:40:33.039
Okay.
00:40:33.280 --> 00:40:35.039
But anyhow, I think his name was Homer.
00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:36.559
He was weird, he was home.
00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:45.360
I look, we didn't have air conditioning in any school I ever went to or taught in until I actually moved to Florida.
00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:54.320
So my first school didn't my first nine years of my educational teaching career were in non-air conditioned rooms right on the blacktop.
00:40:54.480 --> 00:40:55.119
So yeah.
00:40:55.760 --> 00:41:01.599
Well, I mean, in in that regard, the the apartment I had when I was in law school, yeah, no air conditioning.
00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:02.719
Georgetown College.
00:41:03.199 --> 00:41:03.920
Georgetown College.
00:41:04.480 --> 00:41:06.000
But Betsy Lane had air conditioning.
00:41:06.239 --> 00:41:07.199
I don't remember, honestly.
00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:09.199
Yeah, Franklin County didn't have air when I was there.
00:41:09.519 --> 00:41:13.599
We now Betsy Lane High School was almost a brand new school when I went there.
00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:17.039
Oh well uh but I honestly I don't remember.
00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:19.280
I mean, I don't recall it not having air conditioning.
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:27.840
Well, since we are now 42 minutes almost into this, we're gonna have to bring this one to a close and we will bring up clothing at the at the future.
00:41:28.719 --> 00:41:31.920
But yes, congratulations on starting your new school year.
00:41:32.159 --> 00:41:32.320
Thank you.
00:41:33.599 --> 00:41:36.880
Janie is starting her 27?
00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:37.920
28?
00:41:38.559 --> 00:41:42.719
She she it is her 28th year of doing speech therapy.
00:41:42.880 --> 00:41:43.360
That's awesome.
00:41:43.519 --> 00:41:46.320
And congratulations on paying three tuitions and three rents.
00:41:46.480 --> 00:41:46.880
Yeah.
00:41:47.119 --> 00:41:47.599
Not three.
00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:54.159
Well, Roman board, so by the way, 33 years in education, 10th year as uh superintendent this year.
00:41:54.239 --> 00:41:56.719
So it's hard to believe it's been 10 years.
00:41:56.960 --> 00:41:57.519
10 years.
00:41:57.599 --> 00:41:58.079
Yeah.
00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:01.440
I mean, that's like the amount of time Chris was banned from live.
00:42:02.239 --> 00:42:02.480
That's true.
00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:04.880
We still haven't up there.
00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:09.039
I've been up there because I'm not on the band list.
00:42:09.760 --> 00:42:11.599
Feature to catch our list.
00:42:12.159 --> 00:42:14.320
You never know what or who will be the best.
00:42:15.280 --> 00:42:16.559
We gotta do college football.
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:19.360
College football is coming up, baby.
