Batting .500 isn't bad for a room in Dorm Six.

I found out a few years ago that a guy I worked with in the early 1980s was now Archbishop of Canterbury. Went to the clergy late, and was a very unusual pick to be ABC (it's ABC, not AoC). My jaw about hit the floor when a mutual friend mentioned it in a casual conversation.

Read somewhere that when one of his daughters found out, she asked, "if he's going to be ABC, will that make me ABCD?" He himself had a pretty sharp sense of humor.


Good luck.

My roommate and two friends robbed an old man, shot and killed him, and burned his house down.

I'm glad you survived him.

Tell me about it. I saw him a few years after he got out of jail and said he was going to be at the mall where I was working at a bank. I saw him and one or two other guys wearing toboggans and trench coats come in the main door. Five minutes later the alarms went off. Five minutes later the mall jewelry stores manager came in the bank with a sack holding what they had left from the robbery.

Dang! I'm sure he's in somebody's prison somewhere. It's crazy what people choose to do.

New term for me too. Sounds more midwest than south. As in, "got your togaggan, yah?"
