@Matt_Pinner I give one to each grandkid when they finish high school. The bill is framed with a quote
"To be yourself in a world
which is doing its best day and night to make you like
everybody else means to fight the hardest battle
which any human being can fight and never stop fighting
@WallStreetApes In the mid 1960's, my high school band raised money by selling Krispy Kreme donuts for 60 cents a dozen. And the band kept 15 cents on every dozen.
@BeschlossDC Yes. I had just turned 11 the day before. We were on band practice. Chip Marsh arrived a few minutes late. He said "Some crazy kid just said the President has been shot." The band teacher confirmed it.
@KYColonels My father, Jerry Claiborne, was made a Kentucky Colonel by Ed Breathitt, when he was coaching at Virginia Tech. They were both born in Hopkinsville.
@ditravelfan When I was a sophomore at CU Boulder, it was too far to go home to Maryland for Thanksgiving. But the Baptist Student Union invited me to a weekend retreat for mostly foreign students. It was interesting.
