Probably. Either that or he'd make one of us go next door and tell the teacher there, who'd gone to West Point, that VMI, where Major Hairr had gone, was superior. His nemesis often responded in kind.

Yeah. RIP. Great teachers are hard to come by(at least in my experience). Will be a great loss to people he has helped, and those he would have.

Never did get into Tangerine Dream really, but their discography was so massive I didn't exactly know where to start.

I kinda hate that, when I want to get into a band and I check their huge discography and I'm like "Oh you have 900 albums? Well never mind."

That's just me though

Sorry to hear about your loss Batlord. I actually went through the same thing a few years ago with an English teacher of mine. She passed away almost unexpectadly. She had told people close to her that she was sick, but she was a great teacher to those who had the honor of being in her class. She was probably the most important person of my senior year in high school, because without her, I wouldn't have been able to graduate. I wasn't failing or anything. There was this stupid test you used to have to take and if you passed, you pretty much meet one of the requirements to graduate on time. I unfortunately could never pass it, but she taught me certain things that allowed me to look at the test a bit differently, and with that, I ended up passing the test and graduating with my class on time. It still saddens me to this day that she's gone, because although I did thank her many times for her help, I never got to show her what i've done with my life. And that's sad.

It's a shame he passed, I've been to Hodads quite a few times with my family and met him on a couple of those occasions. Very cool guy, RIP.
