Wildcat Memory Lane

In my grade school years, I was both a Fort Payne Wildcat and a Saks Wildcat. A couple of "memory lane" conversations recently prompted me to get the old yearbooks out of the closet and spend an evening reminiscing. I skipped over the bad hair pictures and the really bad hair pictures and decided to focus on the sentiments written by my poetic peers.

So here's my own WHO'S WHO of yearbook quotes...

Most Generic: To a very sweet and pretty girl. Stay the way you are and you'll go far in life. (I have about a million of that one in some form or another.)

Creepiest: To a very fine lady. Always stay sexy. (Hello? I was 11!)

Most Honest: To a very sweet girl who I don't like because she is for Auburn.

Best Stream of Consciousness: Hey Babe (Amy). So how are you doing? I'm bored stiff. You know how that is. I hope you have fun over spring break. I'm gonna be looking for some bad boys. I love this pen, it writes so good. Have a good life. Of course you will - being a doctor. You'll probably be so rich it's not even funny. I'll have to borrow some money from ya, huh?

Most Nerdy: I enjoyed sitting next to you in French class and seeing who could answer first. (I also got props for helping people in algebra and chemistry, which should give you some indication of how cool I was.)

Best Shameless Plug: Hey sweets, put in a good word for me with your dad. He probably won't believe you, but it's worth a try. (Dad was my high school principal.)

One of a Kind: I hate that bull about oh you're just the best friend I've ever had, so I'm not writing that crap. It's stupid and so is that corny crap that's supposed to make you laugh. Well ha ha!

Most Inspirational: Do tha rite thang.
