Hi, Gene. Moved to Arkansas 40 years ago and immediately learned the Wooooo Pig Sooie cheer. Fun.
Am shocked at the number of classmates who've died since the 40th reunion. Ed Sroka updated his profile last month, sent me a letter cuz we dated in high school, then died this week. Still don't know what happened. Have googled and found nothing.
We're about to head off on a road trip to Yellowstone. Never been, so am looking forward to it. I do like to travel.

I remember Adino's pizza. Eddie March and I used to hang out there and for a while we both delivered pizzas. I wonder how Eddie is doing. He married his girl friend Marge and I married her friend Judy (for a while).
Went to this shop called Videolab in Strongsville. It's on W Sprague road right across from Trotter Lane on the corner of Marks road. Had to get some VCR tape converted to DVD and this guy does it rather reasonable. Anyway, he has a lot of historical video of Berea. He does a work for the Berea Historical Society. He did the video of the Changes of the Berea Triangle from 1895 to Present. What was really neat was the fact that he had the entire 1967 Berea High Football season on DVD. If you remember Honester Davidson, he rescued these 16mm tapes from destruction and had this guy convert them to DVD. He also had 1964, 65, 66, 68 etc. Even the 1978 State Championship game. Wow, what a trip down memory lane that was. I watched a little bit of the Wooster game. We painted my car with white shoe polish and made the trip down to Wooster for that one. If you ever are near by, it's worth the stop in.
Loved the picture of the snow but can't imagine how we would handle that in Mississippi. We got almost a half inch here last week and a state of emergency was declared in our part of the state (also because of low temps)and school was closed for 2 days. Just a mention of snow and the stores run out of milk and bread. My children use to beg me not to shop and jinx their chance of a snow day. In fact they still tell not to go and promise to go get me anything I might need. The low temperatures though had me thinking I might need to move farther south.
I seem to remember doing separate boy and girl pranks. Didn't the girls all spend the night at someone's house then ride bicycles to school the next morning. When we got there the boys had pitched tents and camped out and the girls tried to tear the tents down. Or maybe I am having a senior moment (not high school senior but old age senior)
