This story has remained untold for so long....I really wanted to thank Charles again but didn't know where he was. It was in Art Class that my girlfriend and I were constantly being tormented by a fellow who sat in front of us (who shall remain nameless!) He threw spitwads designed to go down the girls blouses and stuff like that...this went on all the time..comments, spitwads, you get my drift. At some point after days and days of ignoring him or trying to ignore him , he turned around and said to me in a taunting way..." Sally's a virgin..Sally's a virgin.." After day after day of his constant comments I responded with "I am NOT!" Whereupoon Charles got this odd look on his face.... after a moment he asked me.."Sally do you know what that means?" I answered "No, " and Charles said, "Well, when you go home, look it up and I think you will find lthat it's not a bad thing to be." Now this was 8th grade...How many people would say that? I can't believe I was so naive .T o this day I am grateful for his kind comment and I do not know if anyone else would answer that way. Nice guy! Funny the things you remember . Charles will always be a hero in my book!
