Dean's Circle: Being bussed

Friday, October 12, 2007

Hey, does anyone remember when "bussing" minority kids was in, and we went to Yona Elimentary School?

Dave said...: The only thing I remember about riding the bus to school was tripping all the way there and hot boxing as many cigarettes as possible on the way home. Then Chris Toal beating the crud out of someone.; October 12, 2007 at 12:41 PM
Ric Larson said...: That was me that he was beating up on a daily basis. He snatched my smokes and then demanded that I put in a good word to my sister. Go figure.; October 12, 2007 at 1:05 PM
juliet said...: I remember he had a very raw deal from his adoptive parents.
Remember his ducks. He later went in the Army and changed his name back to his birth family but I can't remember his last name.; October 13, 2007 at 6:25 AM
Cindy said...: I was in the band and remember when Mr Toal was seeing a "former" student. You get arrested for that nowadays.; October 13, 2007 at 8:20 AM
rac said...: To say he got a raw deal is being kind. They treated Chris more like a slave than a son. I think they even changed his name to Kunta Kintay. No wonder he change it back later on in life.; October 13, 2007 at 9:45 AM
Chris said...: I went to school with Chris Toal's
brother at Merizo Elem.
His name was Gary Fraizer.
He was tough like Chris but a good
guy to have as a friend.; October 13, 2007 at 2:19 PM
