Erich Muhammad (McDaniel)

I'm in Hollywood most of the year pursuing my film career. Hollyweird is my office. I'm here to work not live. I travel back home to Evanston as much as possible. One must recharge with good natured, balanced, humble people in order to stay sane and in the game out here. For that, I thank all my friends and fam fron E-town.

Wow! So many!.....Michael Barner and I (Senior Berto) would act out our favorite superhero/action scenes in the back of Ms. Nicholson's Spanish class. During class! We're throwing karate chops and faking injuries after being hit with a slew of made up super powers like little seven year olds. Michael's favorite was the Hectic Bear. We've all seen bears but Michael's was hectic! Michael was pretty convincing even with his Gumby fro, tank top and dookie gold chain. I would try to defeat the Hectic Bear with my hero The Segregated Negro. Even a 800lb. bear keeps his guard up around a lonely out of work black man. After a few episodes our sweet little teacher would just let us do our thing as long as we didn't disturb the class too much. We wore her out. I've sinced apologized to Ms. Nicholson for my bafoonery.
