1951.......Meeting Mrs. Layman, Tom, Dick, Jane and Spot....and, thankfully, Miss. Hazel Robinson and a set of steel taps for my Buster Browns.......



The piano seat screwed down too low, did I care? That idiot should have ducked under the camera's cape before he pressed the automatic shutter release......Maybe both of us were just born this way.......Time to take the bus for the first day of school, careful to be the last to enter, to avoid all that commotion and shrill, unchanged voices, but just in time to hear Mrs. Layman making those noises with that dusty chalk on the huge blackboard......and what were her first words?......."See Dick.....See Jane and See Spot and Puff, Sally..."......duh!.....It's going to be a while before This gets interesting.....[I think I'll sneak out of here, go to the auditorium and practice Piano......Well.....all the luck!..... Miss Hazel Robinson's in the Auditorium, recruiting boys who want to learn to tap dance!.......Yes! This'll be better than chalk on the blackboard...for sure! Will there be satin and sequins in this deal?]
