My father only did one activity in my life, (other than berating me for not working harder), every night in the 4th grade, we would sit at the dinner table and go over the multipcaton tables over and over. So californina had/has a state wide test on multipaction tables. I scored 100%., when the school board was reviewing the results, one of the members said..isn't he the son of the town drunk?......so I had to retake the test with supervision so I wouldn't cheat......at the end of the school year as a 4th grader I stood up on the stage with my math award....me an the smartest girl in the school....who we sat next to each other....that is why I had to retake the test....I was suspect of being dishonest.
10 mintues later I was called back up to the stage to recieve the citizenship award for a fourth grader.....boy....I was awarded that certificate all my years in elementary school and was awarded the privilegare of being the school milk boy in the 5th grade, an honest job of selling nickel milks and ice cream Eskimo pies.....the school seceartay and janitor where allways pulling for me....they kept my dad company in the desert village.
forgotten your lines in the school play?
