Hey lake boy! hehehehe
I LOVE It's A Small World and now the song is in my head....yet again. It's a happy song and I love going through there. I've been to Disneyland once with my brother years ago and Disney World quite a few times.
This is the 2nd blog I've gone to in 10 minutes that spoke of Disney.
Weird, huh?
I liked the 360 display. I was in the oven in 1974.
Hey Putz, I would see you at that little breakfast diner. I would always sit at the end counter stool down by the window.
I used to write hard exams too. But I didn't get fired. I did get talked to about a high dropout rate and never had a high one again.
Instead I made my students learn. and learn how to study. They would thank me afterward. One who got an "F" on my first test went on to get an "A" in the class. He went on to graduate from the University of Philadelphia Law School, a prestigious one. It was a Law class of mine that he was in.
I never ate ate the HowJow because it was too expensive. Mrs. Jim did before we were married. It was on her way too ...
I accidently got grits at a Holiday Inn restaurant for my breakfast one day. It was reasonable. And my first time for grits. That was before Mrs. Jim too.
..
BTW, Mrs. Jim and I have never bought a new car since we have been married (36 years) either.

I love Disneyworld, especially Epcot. Your post makes me want to go for a visit...maybe during Spring Break.
I will have to check out this whole 'Disney' thing someday--I've never been. My brother lives in Orlando so really, I have no excuse--except that I'm a hermit and don't like to leave my home:)
One of my favorite places is Disney World. I've not been to Disney Land. We went last October and will be going again this coming October... you and the family should take another trip and we can all meet up and ride It's a small world!
i am so worried that my blogs are still embarassing...will cool it, and maybe if i edit real carefully
I don't think they are half as embarassing as mine are. Besides, your recording memories of your life. Someday everyone will be glad you blogged.
It sounds like you had a fun time, Barlow...Glad you didn't give any names, we wouldn't want to embarrass anyone...lol. The steak sounds good, but I don't know if I could eat it three times a day...lol..
Have a Happy Easter!
Sorry it has taken me so long to get over here. I have read all of the new post and I think you are doing a fine and NONembarrassing job. I have never been to Disney World, I would really like to go someday.Keep writing down those memories, someday they will be glad to be able to "remember" the trips with you.
Hi Putz,
Just sneaking in while I'm at work, do you guys celebrate 'Good Friday?' is it a holiday for you guys too? For us it's a big deal, we have a special menu which you would not understand even if I try to explain it to you, it involves a lot of fish though.
It's traditional to eat fish on Good Friday.
I love your posts, Putz. I know you have decided to keep people's names anonymous (that is probably a good idea), but it is better if I have some means of identifying them, so I just invented names of my own as I read this post. Just so you know, a is Annabelle and b is Bernard.
