uptildawn uptildawn Planeteer Registered: 12/15/01 Posts: 9106 Loc: on land	Performed two "classical rock"-influenced originals on guitar with our band at the annual talent show concert in my junior year - only the second school performance I'd ever been in since a first-grade Christmas concert (where I played wood block and triangle). Actually getting my physical diploma later in the Summer after graduation was quite the accomplishment, considering that I had to pay an overdue lab fee to get the diploma and I had no money to spare, since I'd moved in with my bandmates right after graduation and they also had no money. $\:\)$ I don't know if that counts, since I technically wasn't in high school anymore. _________________________ uptildawn

Later found out she did the same thing with a good friend of mine. :\| One of my photographs for my photography class was chosen and got published in some Christian book. Still friends with some of my best friends from those days. _________________________ “This is no place for vacation.”

flatcat flatcat Loquacious Planeteer Registered: 07/11/01 Posts: 30302 Loc: Westborough, MA, USA	I was in all the plays and musicals, that was fun. Played with my best friend in our school talent shows every year, including in our punk band called The Plague. We had an eponymous song and the chorus went What are all those green scales growing on my leg / Oh no I must have .... bubonic plaaaaaaaaaaague. I got a $10 award from the Pittsford NY Democratic Party for being so active in campaigns. My class chose me as most musical in the superlatives. We just had our 45th reunion but I couldn't go. That was all a long, long time ago. I don't think about any of that any more. I had fun. I was a pretty good student, made out with some cute girls, played a lot of music. _________________________ The internet, and the whole technology sector on which it floats, feels like a giant organ for bullshittery—for upscaling human access to speech and for amplifying lies. - Ian Bogost Professor Truth T.

AL AL First Certified Case in US of Trump Derangement Syndrome Loquacious Planeteer Registered: 04/16/99 Posts: 82052 Loc: Walmartville	My pals were all the national honor society squad but I was mostly Bs and Cs, was a goof for the most part. I never went to a reunion. This probably came off as odd because at that time I probably seemed like Most Likely To Show Up at Every Reunion. I guess it actually did surprise folks because I found out about 10 years ago that they all thought I was dead and that info was passed around to everyone at the reunions. ha ha _________________________

Xenophile Xenophile Planeteer Registered: 09/27/00 Posts: 19402 Loc: Sacramento, CA, USA	We had a left-leaning intellectual (at the time secretly gay) Drama/Social Studies teacher who departed from the usual annual musical to produce the rather eclectic “Waltz of the Toreadors.” I played the leading role of General St. Pe’. The General was supposed to be fat, and I was about 6’2” and weighed in at a whopping 135 lbs, so the costume crew had to make a fat suit for me. There is one scene in which the General and his doctor both drop their pants to compare their beer-bellies. I had a pillow sewn into my undershirt and tucked into my boxers to make it look like a beer gut. Many parents complained that “Toreados” was too high-brow. They preferred more traditional high-school fare like “Li’l Abner” and “Annie Get Your Gun.” I played in the pit orchestra for “Annie” and played three clownish roles in “Li’l Abner”… Eagle-Eye Fleagle, Speedy McRabbit and the Japanese News Commentator. I had to do quick costume/makeup changes for the green-skinned voodoo/hoodoo lawyer Fleagle and the twitchy hillbilly McRabbit character (I think Jerry Lewis played that role in the film version). The McRabbit character was also one of the principle dancers in the production numbers. The Japanese Commentator was off-stage, speaking into a mic with a horribly racist, fake Japanese accent.

ulank ulank Forum Person Planeteer Registered: 02/03/08 Posts: 20491 Loc: Chicago, IL	One year in French class we had to make up a skit to perform with 2-3 other classmates. I don’t recall all the details, but I decided I would be the evil French toast stick. For my costume I cut arm and eye holes out of a yard bag and threw it over myself. The class apparently found my costume very entertaining. At the end of the skit, they poured hot syrup all over me and I melted and died. “Je fond!

flatcat flatcat Loquacious Planeteer Registered: 07/11/01 Posts: 30302 Loc: Westborough, MA, USA	Oh, you know what was probably my biggest accomplishment? As a senior in 1979, I took AP American History, AP European History, and AP German. I got two 5s and a 4. That really helped me when I got to college. _________________________ The internet, and the whole technology sector on which it floats, feels like a giant organ for bullshittery—for upscaling human access to speech and for amplifying lies. - Ian Bogost Professor Truth T.
