Favorite School Memory | In no particular order: The Dixon Duke Spiritmen tormenting the poor DHS cheerleaders. Bill Seeger turning the Dixini Advisor's desk upside down.

Randy Paisley (my future college roommate) singing Prepare Ye, dressed as Superman. Jerry Giese (my future best man) helping our Rotary Team make it to the State Championship Finals.

Myra Garrett, Terry Peterson, Tim Frost, and I going to the movies and then devouring pizza at Joe's. Jim Weed and I racing one another from the tower back to the gym. 6:00 AM Golf with Jim Foster at Edgewood. Chris Ortgiesen (rest his soul) and I teaming up to win the "dunkamoto" basketball tournament. (Chris did 90% of the scoring!)

Don Heeg and I convincing Student Council to make Jim Fox our Student of the Month. Mike Jordan impersonating me by writing graffiti on Mr. Johnson's Algebra II chalkboard.
