All this talk about Falcons brought back an old High School memory. Our
high school mascot was the falcon and I was asked to design a cover for our
school newspaper, so I decided to do the falcon. Well I did and it was
printed. There was also a disclaimer by the paper editor saying that the
picture on the cover was supposed to be a falcon and not a pregnant chicken.
My cover didn't appear the entire year. How many times did it appear?
Well, actually just that once. It was way ahead of its times. Too
controversial. Schools weren't allowed to talk about pregnancy back in
1962.
For those of you who question the authenticity of this story. I can verify
that it is 100 % true. If I could find my original copy I would send you an
official verification.
Actually my mother had a nice 1960 Falcon at one time too. It was a light
tan. Great little car. But she wouldn't let me use it to go to the duck
pond. Actually we didn't have a duck pond for parking. We used the town
dump. Now wasn't that romantic. No wonder I could never get a second date
with anyone. I was truly "down in the dumps" in those days.
