Re: Freshman Freddie Here |
Good to see you on the site, Freddie. I think we are distant cousins. I am in the class of '65 but moved away from Martinsville as soon as I graduated. My grandmother, Pearl Spencer, lived on Dillard St (near the mill property) for all the years I knew. Hope you are doing well. Keep posting |

Re: Freshman Freddie Here |
Freddie,
I hope you don?t mind my sharing of this little story from our days in shop class.
All of us in the Automotive Shop class had worked very hard to take apart and rebuild our respective engines. A none to simple task considering that we had more parts missing than present. ?Bo? Eastridge and I were lucky enough to get ours back together(?)first. We were allowed to attempt to ?start er up.? Since we had very few, if any, gaskets for the engines and were pouring gasoline directly into the carburetor, Freddie was assigned to man the fire extinguisher. (Boy, the EPA, EOC and about ten other agencies would have had a field day in that class)
On our first attempt to crank the engine, it backfired and caught on fire. Where was Freddie with the fire extinguisher? Half way out of the door in about two steps!!!! In Freddie?s defense, the engine had no exhaust system at all and it sounded like a giant explosion when it started. We all had a great laugh (sorry Freddie) and went back to class.
I hope life has treated you well my friend, |
