32 years teaching a high school Marketing class with students earning credit for working in the afternoons, picture Welcome Back Kotter.
Loved the kids, even though some were a little rough around the edges.

Last year switched to an Online Based Academy for students who have tried home schooling or some other alternative education and it didn't work out. This program gives them a chance to get a diploma.

Also have coached Varsity basketball during the majority of those years as well as cross country, track and even swimming one year (No one drowned!!)

Great thread! Very interesting and impressive folks on here (and thx to those who serve or have served our country). I am closing in on nearly 25 years in the municipal bond industry in various roles - managing mutual funds, inst'l sales or trading for several large banks. Continue to coach my 3 kids in numerous sports (baseball, softball, hoops, flag football, etc), spend quality time with my wife and collect my beloved cubs (autographs, t-cards, memorabilia from pennant and WS champ teams). Enjoy meeting or emailing with other collectors! Best, Kit

After rereading this thread today, 11-28-2013, I realized that, like an idiot, I posted twice in this thread. Doh.

My '97. Not so much stock anymore as you can see the Screamin Chicken, S&S and Rinehart parts. My family has been riding/racing Harley since 1921. Hope you have good benefits because if not, this World is shy of good Harley mechs, especially Harley. Ever think about going solo?
