It was high fashion then to wear high-heeled saddle shoes with disgusting reddish-brown soles and he used to spin on one foot, his toes actually, to turn around and he left what I thought of as tornados in the tiles. He and Mr. Holland used to play football with the boys at recess, that was unheard of! Mr. Holland taught in the classroom that used to be Mrs. Martin's until she up and died, then a year after he took over her classroom, Mr. Holland died too! So, when Mrs. Urbanak took over that classroom, Susie O'Neil (who had serious B.O.) walked up to Mrs. Urbanak and said, "Welcome to the haunted room, you're next." No one would have believed it, and it is a fact that she died shortly thereafter too. It's true, ask any of my sibs, we all remember it like it was sixth grade.

P.S.
UH, DUH! WHOEVER HEARD OF A PRIME LETTER?

Ok, so the first letter is further down in the alphabet than any of the other letters in the word...

c = a + b

I got a meeting to go to. I'm not gonna try the other words.

They all start with a consonent followed by a vowel? I have to go play Trivia now. If I had your e-mail address, I'd invite you to play Mr. Smarty-pants Earl. In fact, I challenge you!!!! PM me if you dare.

Cindy, it's not nice to keep cats in a bag. In fact, it's considered cruel.

Have I ever claimed to be nice? I think not.
