Oh yeah...4 years of Latin in HS. Went with an attorney who took 6 years of Latin and he always complained (laughing) that it was hard to find anyone who spoke conversational Latin. LOL
‘Secret’ from my past....
Sister made me PROMISE to not embarrass her and taken Latin II nor even try to retake Latin I.
With the promise I got a ‘barely’ passing grade (must not have been under the Regents ‘law’??) but it went on my ‘Permanent Record’ as a substitute for French or Spanish or whatever language one had to ‘master’..
I was the guy that ALWAYS had ‘could do MUCH better’ marked in the remarks column.
I did (sorta) impress the teachers in 10-11 as I was known to do homework for 3rd period in 4th period class etc, never took a book home, but I was ‘busy’ as I had a ‘full time job’ nights and played sports so didn’t have time for homework....It did appear that most everything that was went over seemed ‘familiar’ which is why I used the ‘ahead of my peers’ line...(Or maybe ‘smarter’ than I think/thought)...HA HA
However, I do notice that all the ‘you are wasting your life doing...... dead end jobs’ are now considered essential.
Wonder by necessity or are ‘they’ AFRAID to pay the working stiff for doing NOTHING or are we/they considered expendable and being used as ‘guinea pigs’ to see if intermingling works?????
So many questions...
According to all the (SO CALLED) experts, I am DEAD as I didn’t ‘miss a beat’, still doing my thing a couple of days a week and refuse to lock myself in the attic..THEN AGAIN, I do have enough sense to stay home if I am ‘ILL’...
