include janitor in a potato chip factory, assistant manager of a
Piggly Wiggly store, apprentice electrician, truck driver, and an engineer in
the East Texas oilfields.
This great, sincere, but modest person has many talents and fascinating
accomplishments to his credit (you can't make this stuff up; it's all true)
including:
-performed onstage with the New York Metropolitan Opera in the 1960's
-wore an "Afro" in the 1970's
-taught at a community college in the 70's
-drove an 18 wheeler through the streets of New York, Paris, Moscow, Athens,
and all over Asia in the 80's
-spent time in many Texas prisons 80's and 90's
-awarded honorary life memberships to the Texas PTA
-entered and ran in the 2002 Washington DC Marathon
-roomed with the president of the NAACP
-has spit on Antarctica
You can't make this stuff up!! Mr. Peters
Spit on every continent, even Antarctica.*
Until recently only real scientists like me had access to this continent.
Today it is open to tourism. So far, I'm the only person you know that has
spit on Antarctica. Now it's your turn to do the same.
