>> During my first four years of teaching I lived in two different boarding houses. I had just a bedroom like Barney did and I could not cook in the rooms. My rent was $7 a week and that included a hot breakfast. At both houses the owners were quite elderly and they took in teachers to get a little extra money. After I married, my wife and I kept in close contact with both of the folks until their deaths. << Ken - Did you ever sneak in a bit of cooking on the sly, perhaps chili and crackers? If so, I hope you didn't mess up your landlady's dresser drawers with the spicy fumes. (Especially if it used to belong to her mother and was bussed in all the way from Ft. Lauderdale.) _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list [email protected] http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
