61 years old and retired on disability, and I’m signing up.
Why? Because I’m tired of being an ignerrent redneck. I wanna be a smart redneck.
And think how much fun it’ll be when someone as old, beat-up, and generally ugly as I fills in the ‘Occupation’ blank on some bureaucratic bullshit with ‘Student’.
I take the Placement Exam at the Community College next Tuesday. I haven’t been this excited in longer than I care to remember!
Ultimatly, it’ll be heading toward Zoology (I do some serious, amature Herpotology now), but I got to learn to read and figger, first. I only attended 8th grade and got a GED while in the service. I need all the basic stuff (“Big Dummy” smilie inserted).
Everybody down at the biker bar thinks I’ll never make it, and that I’ve finally flipped out for keeps.
