I remember when I walked into gym class and Kevin L. was trying to get the top of the net tied off, so we could all play volleyball together, with some other students! But, even though Kevin was nearly 6’ tall in high school, he wasn’t tall enough to reach the top of the net!? So, I asked Kevin L., if he wanted me to pick him up, so he could reach the top of the net rope, to tie it off!? He said to me, I don’t think that you could pick me up Bill, because of how big I am and I’m a little bit taller then you too Bill, by a good 1”!? I told him yes Kev., I know that your a little bit taller then me, but I bet that I could still lift you up because, I have been working out in the gym class, with the schools weights, so I’m getting stronger! So, I grabbed Kevin L. around the top of his legs and lifted him up, so he could tie the top net rope up, so we could all play volleyball together! I held him up, for about 30 secs. and then, we all played volleyball together! I’ll never forget that in high school!
