Comments:

It has been 54 years since high school so trying to summarize what has happened in my life can only be answered with a question, how much do you really want to know? Seriously. A few things I haven’t done: Sailed around the world in a one man boat, won a lottery, Driven in NASCAR (although there were several times in the ’60’s,‘70’s and ‘80’s when highway patrolmen asked me if I did), run for office (but given current conditions I'd consider it), been bitten by a shark, or told a lie (yeh right!). I am not the Jim Skinner who was CEO of McDonald's. I did manage to get out of Avondale alive! Should I get another tattoo?

I am on facebook
School Story:

Remember when guilt actually worked. One night after a ball game we (can't remember who I was with) stole the hubcaps (remember those cool flippers) off of Eddy Morgan's car as a joke. We felt so guilty we actually went back and put them on the car. Bet you never knew that Eddy.

A letter to my classmates...

Linda,

What a shock to learn of Ken's death.  My thoughts go out to you and your family in this time of sorrow.

John & Larry - thanks for the updated remembrances of Leroy. We sang in the choir together and I will remember forever the day I heard about the accident that took his life.  I'm smiling just thinking of the good times we had.

As a personal challenge in August of'09 I started riding a bike and did the Ragbrai(Ride across Iowa) a year later in the last week of July 2010 - I did it again in 2012, riding 109 miles on a day it was 109.

I looked a lot like this pre-high school and if you look at me in the cycling helmet I'm an older and hopefully wiser Alfred. Wait a minute, did I say wiser? Hmmmmmmm.

I did Ragbrai again in 2012, riding 109 miles on a day it was 109F. The thing sticking out of my helmet is a "fountain" as the team I ride on is the Fountain Heads. Absolutely NO relationship to Ayn Rand.
