04/01/09 10:39 PM #144     Mary Ann Johnson (Null) Carla - I always thought your cousin was "Rock Friend" - you know, like Rock Hudson!

04/01/09 10:46 PM #145     Mary Ann Johnson (Null) Just one more thing, Judy you mentioned dancing at Teen Town to the intellectually creative songs of our time, like "Hang on Sloopy" and "Gloria". Who would like to demonstrate some of our dances at the reunion? I always remember Sherry Hamilton dancing, what I call "The Shotgun", with great animation! My personal favorite was "The Pony". I learned that from Rhea, who learned it from her older brother -so you know I was cool!

04/01/09 10:48 PM #146     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Carla- What does your son-in-law do for AT&T? I retired from SBC in 1991. Does anyone remember Mrs. Turtlelotte(sp)? I sure do!!!

04/01/09 10:50 PM #147     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Mary Ann- Bruce was always the best dancer among the guys. I think because he had older sisters. Bruce- I can see your head growing from here.

04/01/09 10:58 PM #148     Judith Ann Postier Mary Ann - You missed the fact that I wrote I "never" danced at Teen Town, I was too shy. But, I could probably tell you everyone that was there. Remember the local bands that used to play? Bob Showler and I can't remember the others. Did Chigger Wright play in one of the bands? Jim Christian? Steve - Yes, I remember Mrs. Tourtellotte. I remember the way she used to sit on top of her desk in front of the class. I think the boys "enjoyed" the relaxed atmosphere she was trying to create in the classroom. I enjoyed the films on the holocaust!

04/01/09 11:00 PM #149     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Judy- I enjoyed that VERY much.

04/01/09 11:03 PM #150     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Remember the rumor that was going around that someone 2 years older than us was boinking the Baptist Preacher's wife?

04/01/09 11:09 PM #151     Judith Ann Postier Mrs. McBee??????

04/01/09 11:12 PM #152     Carla Ray Williams (Yocum) Steve-Brad is in management with the wireless division. He is a VP in the marketing area. He started there 10 years ago when it was SWB...then it was Cingular and now it is ATT. They are scheduled to start a strike Saturday at midnight. If that happens he has to go to Springfield. Mo. to cover until the strike ends. He is not real happy about it. Nicky is due in late July or August and they have a 3 1/2 year old at home. He is hoping they settle before Sat.. Bruce-Welcome back! Have you been playing golf long? Bill has been playing about 40 years. He has been to the Masters twice...as a spectator. He says it is the greatest experience in his life...other than the day he married me of course!

04/01/09 11:13 PM #153     Rhea Joyce Freeman (Weaver) Well, I see that I must stick up for Mrs. Tyler. I was her "pet" for some unknown reason. She even came to my wedding! Did she teach grammar or was that someone else? I owe her a big debt because I really learned the "art" of diagraming sentences and it really helped me during all the years of proofreading and correcting copy/type. I remember the LOCOMOTION and the SWING. Maybe we should have a DANCING WITH THE STARS contest? Not! I talked to Jan in Montana last night and she thinks she has caught CONFLICKER! I told her she was "missing in action" and she said she's working on getting her computer "de-wormed". Has everyone checked one of the sites to make sure you don't have the virus? Go to www.symantec.com or www.macafee.com

04/01/09 11:15 PM #154     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Judy- No not her, someone else. And the boys were anything but relaxed when Mrs. Tourtleotte sat with her legs crossed on her desk.

04/01/09 11:17 PM #155     Rhea Joyce Freeman (Weaver) Was Mrs. Turtleotte the history teacher that never washed her hair and it was always hanging in her face?

04/01/09 11:20 PM #156     Carla Ray Williams (Yocum) Steve- It was the truth! Joe Bashears and Ruth Ann McCray were having an affair. Her husband was a Baptist Evanglist and traveled all the time. They went to the First Baptist Church. She had a baby by Joe and she and Paul divorced. She was one of my vocal teachers and her husband was friends with my Uncle Sam, also a Baptist Minister! It was a regular Peyton Place plot right in Vinita. Judy-Poor Mrs. McBee just turned over in her grave!! I had to clear her good name!

04/01/09 11:20 PM #157     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Rhea- I'm so impressed that you spelled 'grammar' correctly. I can't even spell their write. What the hell does diagramming a sentence have to do with anything in real life?

04/01/09 11:25 PM #158     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Carla- Thank you so much for clearing that up. Rhea- I didn't even know Mrs. Tourtellotte(sp) had hair. I never looked up from her long legs.

04/01/09 11:27 PM #159     Carla Ray Williams (Yocum) Bruce,Steve and Rhea-I know I have been in First Grade a really long time...but I thought They're was a contraction for they are! That means Steve was correct with their taxes! The taxes belong to them (well technically they belong to Uncle Sam). The taxes don't belong to they're (they are)!! Am I loosing it?

04/01/09 11:29 PM #160     Rhea Joyce Freeman (Weaver) Who was the old man in the old gray car that used to follow us girls home after the baseball games and try to get us to come over to his car? We thought he was a "flasher" but he was probably a child molester.

04/01/09 11:29 PM #161     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Carla- Uncle Sam is your Uncle Sam???? Drink up.

04/01/09 11:30 PM #162     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Rhea- That was me.

04/01/09 11:34 PM #163     Bruce Evans Does anyone remember the day that Mrs. Tourtellotte, sitting in the back of the room, turned over in her chair while someone was making a report up front? Feet straight up in the air... obviously, Steve P was not in that class. Carla, thanks for setting the record straight on the ministers wife thing. That all took place in my neighborhood. And, that their, there, and they're thing.

04/01/09 11:40 PM #164     Judith Ann Postier I remember all the horror stories we all heard about Mrs. Tyler well before our senior year. But I too have to take up for Mrs. Tyler. I didn't care for school, therefore I was a terrible student. I had 8 AM English my senior year. I never cracked a book and I know Mrs. Tyler could have cracked me over the head. Years later after she had retired from the school system she was the Librarian at the City Library and I was the Librarian at Eastern State. So what happens....we meet up at a library workshop at NEO and go to lunch together. I was so embarrassed, I had to confess to her that I was sorry that I had been such a bad student. I made a D in literature. She was so gracious, she told me "I knew you had it in you." She was a wonderful person, and a great example of what a teacher should be. Also, it didn't hurt in my eyes, that her husband Fred Tyler was a cowboy!

04/01/09 11:43 PM #165     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier Judy- I didn't know that Mrs. Tyler's husband was a cowboy?

04/01/09 11:44 PM #166     Steven Ray (Steve) Postier All- ! not ?

04/01/09 11:47 PM #167     Judith Ann Postier Yes, Mr. Tyler was in the Vinita Round-up club way back when the rodeo was "really" a big deal. He was friends with my Granddad Chaney.

04/01/09 11:48 PM #168     Rhea Joyce Freeman (Weaver) So....nobody wants to have a dance contest? I can be an instructor for the "Electric Slide". I had to take lessons one year because a state asked me to be their "instructor" at a Convention.
