Fondest memories at Sigma Chi are the food fights we had during formal
dinners - many dates never came back! We shared an apartment over a laundry at 95 Dryden Road. Decided not
to go into laundry business! Daughter Jennie is living on high hog, 2
doors away at 111 Dryden, multi-story apartment building brand new with
own parking area. Parking fee per year is enough to feed a family of four
in India. Times have changed! Buying one third of a thoroughbred race horse for $200 with two fraternity
brothers and learning that it ran out of the track on its first race at
Canandaigua. |
Humor 101 I wore contact lenses. One weekend my boyfriend came up and we walked
the length of the gorges and I lost a lens. It was twilight and we couldn't
find it. We stuck Kleenex in the rocky nooks and the next morning at sunrise
I returned to the spot - before those fraternity guys came through - and
found it on a leaf! Didn't have to call home after all. But I did go to
church afterward.

In a computer course the Professor had asked the class if anyone had
not yet started their term project which consisted of a rather complex
computer program. One student raised his hand. The professor told the
student that he would never complete his project because he hadn't allowed
enough time for de- bugging the program. The student responded that "some
people have perfect pitch, I am a perfect programmer." He never did get
that program to work! My first encounter - and last - with Purple Passions at a pledge party:
Moral - if it's purple, comes in beer mug, and doesn't have any taste,
don't drink it. Ever. Trying to avoid the St. Patrick's Day dragon. |
