And to quote a song we sang in the Band in 1963:
"Beer, Beer for old Walker High
Bring on the whiskey, bring on the Rye
Send those freshmen out for Gin
and don't let a sober Sophomore in
RAH, RAH, RAH,
We stagger on but we never fall
We sober up on Wood Alcohol
V - I - C - T - O - R - Y
means Victory for Walker High."
(I believe the above was sung to the Notre Dame Victory song)
PS
I still have my High School Jacket and Band Sweater (don't fit, but I still have them....LOL .... lost my HS ring in Nam)

Just settling in and enjoying life. I love my job and have been with the company for 10 years. My career takes me all over the country and I have had the opportunity to see some amazing things. In my personal life- well, I’m half the woman I used to be …Literally. Three years ago, I decided that it was time to really enjoy life and began a very committed “healthy” and “active” lifestyle change. Now, 170 lbs lost and I just ran my first half marathon. Losing weight isn’t the accomplishment I am most proud of, though. My greatest moment of pride was watching my daughter cross the finish line of her first 5k last year.
