RANDOM MUSINGS FROM THE TOP OF THE HILL

WHEN I WAS A KID

When I was a kid, there was a guy in the neighborhood named Marty Ferris.  He was a year behind me in school but I knew him pretty well.

The year I was a senior in high school, his mother asked mine if I would tutor him in geometry.  I had taken plain and solid geometry and algebra II when I was a sophomore and aced them all.  My mom volunteered me.

I went to his house once or twice a week for a few months.  They paid real money.  It was my first try at tutoring.  I have no idea if I did very well but I guess he passed.

He had a lot of BS and that would take him far.  He became the City Service Director of our city not long after he got out of school.
