Webb School - Sawney Yearbook (Bell Buckle, TN)

Dear Stevland, l find myself completely unable to think of anything meaningful yet unobjectionable on which to write for my senior page and further am morally opposed to doing it. There are four types of senior pages l could write Cor sign my name to: as lVlrs. Truitt would say, sinlxl in all four casesl. l could give my opinion of THE Web School twith the mundane personal history as-justificationl. Since l oppose censor- ship however, l will give it no opportunity. Or l could write the typical personal notes: You never PROVED it, lVlrs. Truitt . . . Well, now l won't have to listen to you evil-Rich, Reactionary Republican, mono- maniacal diamond snobs, Gem . . . Remember that scratch l put on your copy of SONGS lN THE KEY OF LIFE, Hester? Click, click! . . . How about the time l opened your door without knocking, Bur- chett? . . . Hope your father's nose gets well, lVlathes . . . l But such familiarity does not belong in the mass media of a major metro- polis. Next, I could bless your publication with Nlelissa lVlanchester's lyrics, but this would not be in tune with my characteristic originality, since you will do the same with Diana what's-her-name, and quite useless as Webbies are all uneducated philistines anyway fRight, James Albert?J. Lastly, l could enlighten you with some vintage libertarianism, but THE webbed school has enuf problems without campus rebellion. tHuh, Gem ?D But further, the picture above t?i is ample evidence of my insanity which all my chilluns will undoubtedly make a major topic of con- versation at Class Reunions, family picnics, excursions to the den of sin in Louisiana, etc. As l have always believed in the principle of Respect for Elders tSay- what, J3 ? How's DC ?D l will not provide furthur proof of the obvious.

When I first came to Webb I found my- self walking around in a daze thinking, What am I doing at this place ? I realized that for the first time in my life I was being challenged. I knew that if I was to be successful, the credit was to belong to no one but myself. It was here that I learned to value success as my own and profit by my many failures. Webb has been a great social as well as educational opportunity for me. I feel like it has helped tie up all the Ioose ends that my previous years had created, Many thanks to the friends I have made in my short stay. I hope that I have helped them as much as they have helped me. Thanks to a certain history teacher whose ability and character can never possibly be equaled. But most of all, thanks to my parents whose insight saved my future. Slump, and the world slumps with you. Push and you push alone. -- THE PETER PRINCIPLE Give a man a fish and you have fed him for a day: teach him how to fish and you have fed him for the rest of his life. -- Socrates
