hello again -
can't believe that I'm talking to someone from ND. This is new, this
internet thing for me. I guess old dogs can learn new tricks, right?
My kids at school are thrilled that I am involved with computers. I
have been involved and learning with them since 1980 when one of my
students brought one to school for "show and tell". He taught me so
much in one week that i went out and bought an Apple IIE the next month.
I've been playing since. In all seriousness, teenagers today need
teachers who stay up to date. One advanced techno buff is teaching me
HTML right now and in turn he does his homework. Even so - back to this
Surfing the net has been only in our area for two months. We now have
our own server in addition to our BBS at the local community college.
It's thanks to our youth that this has occurred.
Curiosity and more info for my 8th graders - leads me to ask about your
stint with the honor guard. What was best about your job? What did it
mean as far as a schedule was concerned? And furthermore, did it lead
to a step toward a career for you later? What is your career now? Or
are you retired?
Are you far from Fargo, ND?
If I'm too curious, remember I'm still a teacher at least until the year
2004.
Lori
Some of my students are in NJROTC to answer the question why are they
so curious. Lori
