Comments: Barry, glad you enjoyed it. I had cats following me to school that morning.
Comments: [B]John, you are so hilarious...some actually thought you were serious...haaaaaaa!
Comments: Lynell: It took a while to get used to your lunch. The cat food wasn't too bad. Barry
Comments: Mike, my special sandwich was Puss 'n Boots cat food, with lettuce and tomato, and a side of Feen-a-Mints in a Chiklets box. It stopped my thievery problem, too.
Comments: Oh..Mike, I forgot to say... "I don't remember you eating in 'Mighty Fine Cooper's' classroom"...? I remember you sitting over by the window, but I don't remember the food..? I wonder if Pat remembers it, of course, Pat and I might have been 'roaming the halls' while you were eating... (when I was married to the Baptist person and around editors..a lot, I learned there were new 'grammar styles'. Since then, I have come up with my own, if you've noticed...?) Anyway...we should ask Pat/Patricia..if she remembers...? 
Comments: Noon Day Prayers..? Remember them. In the Nashville Public Schools, we had a moment of silence in the morning.. That suited me fine. In Austin, the Christmas 'thing' was changed to Holiday Celebration..but... It hasn't bothered me at all. My faith has not existed because of the "Under God" in the Pledge. We all remember when that wasn't there. We had so many cultures, nationalities in Austin. I remember when they put the Sudanese, the Haitians, the Bosnians in the Bi-Lingual Class. That's English/Spanish Class. What a Hoot..! Good thing those kids and their families had a sense of humor..and maybe were desperate, too. I read that the 10 Commandments first appeared in Courthouses when Cecille B. Demille (sp) was advertising the movie,"The Ten Commandments".. Can't get too up in arms over all this stuff. Whatever you call God, you can still pray and 'think'..and no one will bother you.. I like the 'Moment of Silence' thing.. It respects all.. You can have your little peaceful moment and not be threatened...

Comments: I used to always bring my lunch. Tuna w/ mayo, tomatoes. I was starving by 9:30 every day & became skilled at eating it in Mr. Coopers home room class without getting caught at about 10:00 am. Then they started stealing my lunch out of my locker everyday--I never could catch them. I mixed approx. 2 tblespoons drano with the mayo & made them a "special" sandwich. no more lunch problems. never heard about any sick students I guess they were ok. Probably 1 taste & spit it out, anyway--problem solved.--mike
Comments: John, I taught for years in the Dallas schools. We never had a noon day prayer in any of them where I taught. Toward the end of my teaching career, we were not allowed to celebrate Christmas. We just had too many different religious groups in almost every classroom. We had students from India, Moslems, Jews etc... Christians no longer make up the majority of school children.
Comments: I wonder if they do "noon day" prayers anymore?
Comments: My sandwiches always included mayo because I couldn't stand yellow French's mustard, and that was the only kind we'd ever heard of at our house. White Manor bread, and either homemade pimiento cheese or egg salad. It sat in my locker all morning, then got washed down with a glass of warm water from that big tank in the middle of the lunchroom. I must have had bodacious stomach acid, because I never got sick. Remember the Noon Day Prayer? Seems like Dinah Johnson and James Jordan did that. I wonder if they ever got to eat, or did Mr. Matthews hold them up in the principal's office.
Comments: Ginger, um...I really don't remember those burgers. I suppose I took my peanut butter sandwiches and Bologna/mayo sandwiches with Fritos all those years and just never noticed what was on trays. I couldn't afford to buy my lunch either Lynell, but I did buy rolls and ice cream with my milk money that I saved up ..heh heh! Maybe the hot, tainted mayo effected my sight?? ha!! Did ANYONE ever get sick because of mayo on our sandwiches, wrapped in wax paper? I don't think so!
Comments: They fixed the format! Yea! 
Comments: Phyllis, I just hate when things like that happen. It's such a hassle to change your e-mail address! Maybe I'll get one of those messages from "you" saying you're in jail in Spain. When I had an AOL account, everyone I know got that message from me. There are some creative weirdos around, that's for sure. The guestbook provider assures me they are hard at work fixing this formatting problem. Hope so.
Comments: Did this format change by itself? Yuck. Has anyone heard what happened to Valley View Mall this morning? I know it was supposed to be auctioned off at 9:00 a.m., but I haven't seen any thing else about it. How sad. I work nearby and for years have been able to run there on my lunch hour to pick up gifts, etc. It has really been sad to see it go downhill. That just leaves the Galleria in this area, and I refuse to go there. Trying to park at that place is a nightmare. Valley View is 39 years old. North Park is older, but it seems to be thriving.
Comments: My old hotmail account -- grannybunny@hotmail.com -- that I've had ever since email was invented, was hacked again, sending out spam messages randomly to people in my contacts list. This is the 3rd time -- over many years -- that it's happened. Some of you may have received weird messages in the past week, purporting to be from me. I sincerely apologize. If you have received any, but not yet opened them, please delete without doing so. I will not be reactivating that account, even though it is the one to which most of my personal messages go. The email address I am using here is OK. Thanks!
Comments: Barry: I heard about AARP and the other one last week. I joined the new one (too early a member to even remember the name) and will drop AARP when it is 'dues time.' I've had all my insurance with State Farm for a zillion years and for that reason I'd likely not change. Thanks a lot for the financial information though.
Comments: The good people at Network Toolbox are looking into this issue with the weird formatting. I hope they fix it soon. I tried and had no luck.
Comments: I brought my lunch 'most of the time', but I bought it enough to remember the green booger burgers as Danny and Kimballites.. called them.. We had all those 'kiddie' lunch boxes in HS. Mine was a Disney Yellow School Bus with all the characters hanging out the windows..
Comments: I can't speak for Charlotte, of course, but I never bought my lunch. Cost too much, for one thing. And I've always detested standing in line.
Comments: Charlotte..did you go into the lunchroom with your eyes closed..? Those were a part of our lives for most of those 12 years.. You saw and probably ate a Booger Burger...!
Comments: Aaargh! This wide screen formatting is driving me nutty! 
Comments: Oh My Goodness! I have NEVER heard of or seen those green burgers...sounds gross...stop yourselves!!
Comments: That's Kimball HS..Just saw my mistake...
Comments: Danny Smith/ Kimbal HS and head of the Oak Cliff Boomers on FB...said they called those Booger Burgers.. Kinda fits, doesn't it..? They were good even though they were green.. Danny posted the recipe too..Think it was a year ago...  Booger Burgers..Yep, I like it...
Comments: Gee. I thought it was my Ipad screwing with the format. [B][/B]
Comments: I personally am not buying that it's the relish that turned those buns green. Wonder what happened to our formatting here? I'll e-mail the guestbook provider and see if they can fix it. This format is icky.
Comments: Thanks Martha, So it is the pickle relish that turns the school burgers green. You can read the recipe if you just keep pulling the column across. I always wondered what part of the chicken the chicken rings came from. LOL
Comments: I am not sure what happened on that last post but you can look up school burger's for Dallas schools and get the recipe.
Comments: Okay, here is the school burger story and recipe one more time... Response: You called it a School Burger, but its official name is Hot Meat Bun, Sandwich 13. DISD shared with us versions of the recipe that make 50, 100, 125 and 175 servings. I don't think you really want to make it, but you'll probably find the method.....well, interesting. For 50 servings, soak 6 ounces of stale bread in 2 cups of beef stock until soft. Mash until no pieces of bread remain. Add 1 cup water to 6 ounces of dehydrated frozen potatoes; bring mixture to a boil and set aside for 10 minutes. Then drain the potatoes and chop fine. Have you noticed there's no meat yet? Well, here it comes. Combine bread, potatoes, 2 1/2 tablespoons salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper with 9 pounds of ground beef. Place in large shallow baking pan and bake at 425 F until well done. Stir often and keep meat broken up with potato masher. Do not let lumps of meat form. Pour off excess fat. When not lump busting, chop 1 pound of onions and combine with 1 cup pickle relish (hence the aforementioned greenish cast), 1/2 cup vinegar and 1 cup mustard. Add relish mixture with meat and mix well. Moisten with additional beef broth (up to 2 cups) as needed. Spread meat mixture between halves of hamburger buns. Stack filled buns two layers deep in shallow baking pans. Cover and heat well just before serving. This is a true recipe; I could not make this up e is the school burger story and recipe one more time... |
