Message: I live in Greensboro NC and I can say that this state and all race fans are stunned. I watched the race and saw the wreck but for 1.5 hours I thought that Dale would just waltz out and say ""What a race""!. That never happened. I am going to a memorial tonight in Welcome at the RCR shops with some friends to try to work through this. I can't believe it racing will never be the same.

Message: First some times I have capitolized my name like the last post line--sorry but mostly it's lower caps and yes the ""mini me"" has always done it in Caps although now they will read this and stop???
You can always tell it is me by how I post and by what I SAY. 007 said it perfect ""when God made the King we broke the mold.""
I never ask for any info other than one's preferred wing dippage :)
I am concerned about WWHS alumni and the current
education process in Raleigh Co. I do deal constantly with all the schools in Raleigh Co.
I never try to get to know anyone but the teachers because that's who I deal with!!!
I have never nor will I ever ask for info on the net. I like being my own little 'cigar king' and having my friends like... well you know them.
Trixy whoever she/he is--all I know is that she/he is a student at WWHS--asked if anyone knew what happened last year and what was going on this year and how our graduations went.
So as others have stated if you look only at a line that refers to other lines yet remark freely well then you are doing exactly what everone else has done. Made yourself look silly. Now as I always say POST ON! How you look is how you look.
I appreciate the song I have missed the singing so as an ending I shall give one more.
It was sang as a finale by another ""King"" ...
I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every byway
I've posted where I wanted
And asked you to say it your way.
Now I've made it pure and clear
I want those Kellyites out of here
And ask each one....of you today
Go & say ""I DID IT MY WAY!""
Thank you thank you very much!

Subject: Why is WVU scared of MARSHALL? and other thoughts people are talking about
Date: Saturday 17-Feb-2001 00:09:52
Message: Does anyone else think its odd that:
1. Notre Dame Football will play WVU on a 3 at home 1 in Morgantown basis but the Mounties continue to evade Marshall even when ""Bob's Boys"" offer 3 in Morgantown to every one in Huntington???? It's quite obvious to the rest of America ESPN included that MU and WVU are much more similar football programs than Notre Dame and WVU are. Quit evading the Herd Rich and Dave. You two talk of your big stadiums and even bigger program but outside the Big East Marshall has much more respect and name recognition these days.
2. WVU will play MU in basketball in Charleston every year? Does Gale Catlett have more manhood than we give him credit for??? Or will football between the two require the same sort of legislative pressure required that forced them to play basketball in Charleston of all places every year?
3. That Bob Bolen might quite possibly be the next Bobby Knight or John Wooden. Laugh if you must but the Cougars have become a force to be reckoned with. Maybe if Don Nehlen and Gale Catlett had done a little time in the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference they might have had more respected Division I careers. Bowden Rodriquez Greg White..... Bob Bolen is a shoe-in to hit it big some day.
4. The University of Florida a probable pre-season number 1 this year doesn't run from the Herd. Maybe if WVU played a little more competitive out of conference schedule like UF they too would be ready to run with the ""Big Boys"" teams like Florida Clemson North Carolina Tennessee Michigan State Georgia - all TWSM Teams who schedule Marshall.
5. Marshall like the WVIAC has become a ""Cradle of Coaches and Quarterbacks"" in its own right with names like Pruett Donnan White Pennington Payton and all the rest of MU's ""living legends"".
6. Cigar King please do not respond to any of this. I don't

And I never played footbal or soccer nor was I in the band or the drama club??
But if I ws it wouldn't have mattered to what I became???
All of you who ever played in a band the Drama club or was on a soccer team...are you going to stand up for yourselves...or yet don't let the child go to sleep. He will tire of making so many mistakes as posting as me!!

Message: 1. WVU is not scared to play Marshall. It is beneath their dignity to play any MAC team on the road. If Marshall had been allowed to join a better conference (ACC Big East ect..) West Virginia would play them on the road 1 for 1 like they do Maryland (who is probably a MAC level team). Marshall has no one to blame but themselves and their Conference affiliation.
2. WVIAC coaches have generally made a pretty good name for themselves at the next level however coaching is not always about your successes. More often than not it's who you know and how lucky you are. Does anyone really believe Don Nehlen would ever have coached Division I football if he had started coaching at Concord College fifteen years ago? Of course not. He'd be at Gauley Bridge now instead of Coach Mullett. Coach Nehlen was in the right places at the right times and used his contacts to his advantage to land his WVU spot twenty years ago.
3. Bob Bolen reminds me more of Rick Pitino than Bob Knight.
4. Marshall ""Cradle of Coaches and Quarterbacks""? Will MU grads and/or attendees ever get it? I doubt it they get so pumped up beating Kent State every year that they've lost all sense of reality. Jeff Hostetler Major Harris Bobby Bowden? Edge to WVU.

Furthermore when I post my only intent is to keep the interested alumni updated on the going ons at WWHS now. I have never let me repeat that NEVER been intimidated or creeped out by anyone on this board. I've been chatting online for 3 years and I've ran into quite a few creeps and even more pervs. Note to parents: Excite Chat isn't a great place for your kids. If I had felt that I was in danger I wouldn't have posted anymore. And I have to say that it's really sad that alumni or so-called alumni still get their kicks by playing the high school rumor game. It's over folks. It's time to grow up and move on. As to the band people some of you probably know me and if you realized it you'd kick yourself in the a$$ for being so stupid. Also the band could use the practice so you should shut up and play.

Message: For your information I have three children and two nephews that will be attending Woodrow. I am very interested to know what goes on there...whatever happens in the present has an effect on the future. We are not concerned about the students ""lives"" we are concerned about how and why things are done at Woodrow. We have not asked for any personal info from any students at Woodrow. A student asked our opinion on a very legitimate concern she had about the administration at Woodrow. And that is what all the message threads have been about. There is some sicko that has intruded and tried to make things look different than what they are but ignorance like that needs to be ignored.
What kind of ""interaction"" are you referring to?? Please make yourself more clear. The administration at Woodrow has nothing to do with this board. Jeff Miller designed and maintains it (and does and exceptional job!) I'm sure if he was ""bothered"" by or dissaproved of any the posts he would say something...he has in the past. He also have the ability to delete anything he feels is inappropriate. If you people would just follow the threads in proper order you would see that NOTHING is going on here!!

Try try try as you might you and your 3 or 4 computer personalities will never be cool trendy or even witty to those of us who lived learned and loved WWHS throughout our three years there. I have never considered myself an elitist having befriended all sorts throughout life however you have changed my thinking. I am better than you my friends are better than you and my family is better than you for one simple reason. We bother no one. We work have a family life and contribute occasionally here when we think it might be worthwhile. But we never intrude on others or force our silly thoughts into cyberspace so everyone else can dislike us. Also it's been noticed and discussed that you talk about the Lord alot. I only hope your heart is in the right place and you are not being blasphemous in your quotes and sayings as they are often delivered in a sarcastic manner. I also hope the high school girl on here is wary of you as you do indeed match certain profiles I have read about. Please respect the WWHS alumni family and website in your future contributions. Otherwise please take your personalities somewhere else more along your cyberlines. Decent folks have quit contributing because of you.

I am the one who sent the message to the donotters about the sick site they had on their site but of course you conveniently missed that one.

Message: I recall the 1968 graduation at WWHS was a rather dignified solemn affair but as they say times have changed. At the graduation ceremony at the high school in Florida where I teach there is cheering as each student's name is called out and he or she receives the diploma. Each year the assistant principal who reads the names of the graduates asks the audience not to cheer as the names are called out so that everyone can hear the names but the audience ignores her. Other than that at least we haven't had any real misbehavior at our graduations.

Message: I was a member of the Usher Club so I attended Baccalaureate at the old WWHS and graduation at the Armory for '64 '65 and my own in '66. Half the teachers would have had coronarys had last years' events taken place then. I would have hated to have to face Mr. Peregoy if I had been involved plus the parents would have beaten their offspring half to death( and not been chastized) on ther spot. Yes things were much different then. WWHS has hit a sad point. I do hope the kids get a nice ceremony that can warm their hearts and memories in years to come. Don't mean to come off as a fuddy-duddy but there are some rituals that insist on decorum and the kids today are no different than we were they just need to learn there are rules of ettiquette for a reason to live in a civilized society.

You say there are rituals that insist on decorum but the students don't see our graduation as one of them. Not anymore at least. We see it as a day to celebrate and have fun. As for the rules of ettiquette kids today still learn them and could apply them if needed.

Message: In a way I agree with you both. Graduation should always uphold it's own etiquette as in the ceremony itself. We celebrated afterward immediately threw our hats and yelled some for glory and some in disbelief that they passed :).
Doug 'the lizard king' Dillon turned on the stage and waved to the croud causing a huge roar and that was about as roudy as it got. I believe that it can be the perfect mix maybe this is the time to learn to give and take maybe not??? I wouldn't have wanted to hear it then but it is all over the Bible to turn to the older ones for direction. Doesn't mean it has to be boring. maybe if someone that's about to graduate had the chance to sit with one of the parents or teachers and simply explain what their graduation meant they wouldn't be so hesitant. Then again after what I witnessed at Marshall last year if I was a professor--which I am not... yet--I wouldn't allow it. They went over board. Always seems to come down to comunication. Trixy you seem to have a bright head on your shoulders influence those who need to hear you. Let them know your reasons for what you want to do and then let them tell you theirs. There is always a middle ground. I wish you the best and once again congratulations
on your acceptance to Marshall and WVU. Post on!

Subject: 1925 yearbook
Date: Sunday 11-Feb-2001 22:59:11
Message: I recently obtained a 1925 yearbook of Beckley High School and will be posting some pictures pretty soon. The yearbook is called the Echo but the school was the building on Kanawha Street that later became BJHS. I was surprised to see Lois Edmundson on the faculty in 1925. I had her at BJHS in the 60s so she taught for at least 40 years. (I remember a couple of students who really gave her a hard time back then!) There is also a picture of Glenn Sallack in the 1925 yearbook although I knew he was around in the '20s. One of the 12th grade students pictured is Christine Clay who I believe is the same Christine Clay who taught at BJHS but I am not sure. There is an ad for the KKK in the yearbook. The newspaper was called the Spotlight as the term Eagle Dispatch couldn't have existed yet because the nickname ""Flying Eagles"" hadn't yet been adopted.

Seems some are having fun pretending to be us!!!
It's so fun to watch the children play wouldn't you say Tonto 007?
You know Tonto nailed it watch their posts. Although we can tell the mood of the person posting if THEY allow us too. Thru caps italics etc. each one of us has specific thought paterns and ways about which we communicate. Sometimes I am very punctual and almost too therapeutic (for the Kellyites) as I type which makes me sit back and relax and act goofy...you know...a song...what ...right now....well...if you insist :)
tune to I'm in Love--E. Presley
Well a bless a my soul what's a wrong with them
They're a posting nasty things about me the King
Who do you think is behind it uh huh huh the Kellyites.
Uh huh huh uh huh huh yea yea the Kellyites.
Well please don't ask them what's on their mind
Cause they're sick and twisted and way behind
When you get on line they scream and shout if it wasn't a message board I throw them out.

When you have time Trixy go back through the message threads until you get to where we began posting...read our posts up until now then form your own opinion.
If you will notice we have also been accused of being homosexuals and a little bit of everything. Bottom line is that the Kellyites are just plain jealous that they can't come here and enjoy theirselves as much as we do.

Well hopefully you'll always remember that the more you tell them not to do something the more likely they are to do it. And also that you can't learn from someone else's mistakes. Besides you don't want perfect children. It would take all the fun out of parenting!

Message: Please PLEASE don't take this badly or to heart I don't mean anything personal by it for I will describe myself early in life also. To do something because you are told not to is a freeway exit ramp sign that one would be immature. As a person matures they respect authority even if they might not agree with it. Also go tell the scientists at NASA that they can't learn from others mistakes...pick any Dr. scientist researcher and ask them. We all learn from others mistakes everyday. I do understand your point but try mine cause in 5-10 years you will know it and live it and probably agree with me. I stood in your position for some time in my life yes it was as I got older but simply because of the maturation I went through. Getting older doesn't always bring maturity some mature at a younger age. Again please don't take this as a mean stab at you cause it isn't it's just the truth that I learned the hard way through a lot of troubles and stormy weather. Post On!

I know the mistakes I made by following the same rule as you and I remember saying ans thinking the same thing. You are not wrong in your thinking just normal. I hope you are able to learn quicker than I and without the pain. I hope I have children so I can worry about their decisions and where they are what they are doing and how they may get through life without going through the pain I have. My wife is the same. I guess all parents are that way. They corect lead and yes they fuss to guide their children away from the pains they have gone through. Tonto nailed it I mean scalped it good:) when he said ""true words of wisdom"" OK I couldn't resist. I was getting to serious but really he hit it we all change through wisdom. You know God said to raise your child in the church and he'll return to it.??? To return to something you have to leaveit right! He knew we would do things are way even though He has given us a perfect path to follow. Yet we are not perfect we ALL can do a lot better.

Message: I for one will be saying a prayer for you and your wife. It is sad that people who truly want children can't have them...and then there are those who don't want them having them left and right then not taking care of them. I have 3 kids a 6 mnth old 3 yr. old and 9 yr. old. They really keep us hopping!!! But I couldn't imagine my life without them. They can bring you alot of sorrow but the joy they bring outweighs it 10-1!!! Parents don't get instructions from the hospital when we bring these babies home. Everyday is a learning experience for us as well. Trial and error...and what works with one child may not for the next because they are all individuals with different personalities all their own. So Trixy we know our children will make mistakes but I want you to know as a parent of young children we make our mistakes also. I made mistakes with the first one and said""it will be different with the next"" well then we make a whole new set of mistakes with that one. When the 3rd one came same thing ""we made mistakes with the 1st two this one will be different"" Well so far so good (at only 6 months into the game) except that we have him spoiled to the rocking chair!! That boy WILL NOT go to sleep unless you set and rock him and he always wants daddy to do the rocking nobody else will do... Mistake #1...get your child accustomed to going to sleep in many different circumstances...that is if you ever want to go to sleep yourself!!!
I'll shut-up now. Just wanted to let you know at least in my opinion that parents are not perfect and therefore should never expect their children to be.

Perhaps if a group of seniors/class leaders got together and presented a ""plan"" to the administrators or the class had a ""graduation meeting "" a sponsor may come forward. A plan of ""this is what we would like to do "" or ""we would like your cooperation with our graduation "" may be the key.
It sounds like their trust in the senior class needs to be won back and unfortunately it falls on your class' sholders. Usually when a complaint is followed by a plan of action one will get more interest or results. People tend not to listen or tune out if they only hear complaints whining etc. (Not that you're doing either; just trying to make a point.)
Take pride in being a Flying Eagle - a graduating Flying Eagle - and show them you mean business. More importantly show them you care! United you stand divided you fall.

Trixy I agree with 007 you need a plan of action. Sounds to me like the administration is scared...which is a shame. They shouldn't punish your class because of what happened last year. If my oldest son went somewhere and did something he shouldn't have doesn't mean I'm going to keep my 2 younger ones from ever going to that place for fear they might do the same. Am I rattling on??? Well I hope you get the point.
I remember my senior year we were talking about and planning graduation in Sept. It was something we looked forward to from the day school started! That's the way it should be...you will only graduate high school once.

The seniors have presented our plan of what we want for graduation. It was met with ""you can't do it that way"" and ""we won't allow that"". Last year the problem was that for the first time in 4 years graduation was held on the football field. And security guards patrolled the aisles during the ceremony. One young man had some silly string sprayed it in the security guards face and was kicked out of graduation. This happened about half-way through handing out diplomas. After that the other students were upset and got loud and no one could hear the names being called out. As for senior float I can't remember who the teacher was. But we were told that it's up to the seniors to recruit teachers for the ceremony. For calling out names and such. Thanks for the advice!

Why? That's a good question. I think they said something about there being ""trouble-makers"" in the class and something about how the class of 99 was rowdy. All we asked was that 1)we be allowed to have balloons silly string etc. and 2) for there to be a time set aside for us to play with them. We even suggested the very end of the ceremony. But they keep telling us that graduation is supposed to be a serious somber event. Well not anymore. We don't agree. And in a letter sent from the principal to our parents he found that our parents agree with what we want. And after he found that out there hasn't been anymore mention to us about anything. Go figure. Oh well. Thanks you guys for the advice!

All over the world people have celebration traditions... usually after a graduation it is throwing caps.. but where is it written that tradition can't be changed or at least bent a little?
I wish you the best of luck on your quest Trixy. Keep us informed I would be curios to see just HOW unreasonable the administration at WWHS can be... I have 3 children of my own that will be attending Woodrow in the future I can only hope for a change before that day comes.

Message: I agree that at the end of the ceremony that would be nice!! What may have happened is similar to what happended at Marshall last year. It was awful disrespectful and??? They started throwing glitter and that string stuff abnd horns and noise makers and everything as they walked out during the ceremony and at the end. Most of the nursing classes hats were decorated with things hanging off of them. I am a crazy individual I have had my wife tell me I am immature at times but that was rediculous!
With what happened at WWHS last year and Marshall they might be precautious. I understand because you know as well as me someone will spray the string or let ballons go during the ceremony. I see this in my work one acts stupid so all suffer!! I have to make decisions based ont that sometimes too and I don't like it. Trixy WWHS can't stop the graduation or not provide teachers to hand out and serve at the graduation they just can't and they won't. The string thing well they can stop that...as long as they know about it. Man I can't believe I'm doing this...they can't frisk you going in you have rights. You can be thrown out of graduation caremonies (and still get your deploma) they have rights. You can just about do anything (legal) at the end. You might not be able to hide ballons but you can hide noise makers and canned string! Just don't let some do it during the ceremony.
One other thing...the papers love this kind of stuff they will eat it up and WWHS will have to answer you. Don't mention the things you want to do just the ngativity you have received. Good luck keep us posted.

It's a scary thought to think that one day on the last day of school seniors will be handed their diploma as they leave school. (""Buh-bye now. Thank you for learning with us here at WWHS.)
I'm afraid the administrators are trying to protect everyone from everything and are erring on the side of caution albeit too much caution.
Surprisingly the Cigar King has a point though.(Just kidding King-man!) The media would eat this alive! If brought out in the papers the administrators would HAVE to respond. There's nothing a school University state or government agency hates worse than nosey reporters.
I strongly disagree with the King-man's offer of ""hiding"" things. Remember this is a WWHS web site. You don't think someone already knows?!?

Well last year after the boy was thrown out of graduation several parents and students wrote editorials to the Register-Herald. There were letters about it in the paper for days. The problem with involving the media is that the same thing would happen. A letter digned by all the seniors would appear in the paper and then people would begin to respond. Far too many don't remember throwing their caps and having fun on their graduation day. Their adults now and for some reason they all think they're right. And they're negative towards us. Which in turn would give the administration another leg to stand on. But I'll pass the idea along. As for keeping things secret it's a little late for that anyhow. Our requests have already been presented to the administration. As for sending your kids to WWHS no one wants to admit it but it's still the best school in the county. WWHS offers more elective and AP courses then anyone else. However you could probably look into that yourself and I definitely would if the school does in fact lose it's accredidation(sp?) at the end of this year. Anyways I'll keep you all updated. Later!

Message: This new principal sounds like a real winner. I don't think that Miller would have ever let this happen. I was part of the class of '96 and I'm pretty sure that we started all of the chaos. I remember sitting on the backrow and blowing up beach balls. That's as far as it went though. The best part of the entire event was that the parents got the blame from the faculty. They thought the balls came out of the stands. I know that there are at least 1 or 2 faculty members that still genuinely care about you guys. If they don't it's really sad because you are the future of that town. If they treat you like s--- now what will you be willing to give back in the future?

No they can't until tests are taken again this spring. See we were put on probation 2 years ago and every school gets 3 years to meet the guidelines after probation starts. So it can't be officially announced because it hasn't officially happened. And if that's not the truth then there are going to be some very pissed off parents and graduates when they find out that their HS wasn't accredited. And they get rejected from some of the best schools in the country because of it.

Message: Why was WWHS put on suspension?!? Did it quit meeting state guidelines or something? (Too many beach balls thrown at graduation?) I'm confused. What happens if it doesn't ""pass"" after the spring tests?
WWHS was is and should always be a great school. What happened? I'm very proud to say that I'm a WWHS graduate. I have some distant family members that went to Shady for 2 reasons - 1. They lived in that school district; and 2. They are prejudiced. They didn't want their kids going to school with ""certain"" people. I will always be astonished saddened and perplexed by that second reason. But now they probably have something to gloat about - WWHS losing its accredidation. Sad isn't it?
Please keep us posted on the latest ""stuff"" Trixy. Maybe we can help in some small way.

It's blue cheese babe. As for the plan to improve scores there is one but to be quite honest it won't do much good. For some reason people seem to think that the teachers are at fault when that's not the case at all. But because of this they are supposed to teach info that may be on the tests. However being a student I know that 1) the tests ares a stupid way to judge our intelligence 2) at least half of the students could care less and 3) nobody really tries too hard to do well. Plus they give them for three straight days in the early morning. School starts at 7:20 am. How many students do you think are at their best that early?

Anyone ready for some FOOTBALL. Now for the geeks and freaks... uummm excuse me thanks is there any certain one of you that may require some refreshments this upcoming Sunday evening? CAUSE THE KING IS DOING IT RIGHT!
Yes my buddy has a big pot of chilli planned plus munchies (wings and what)and I have a special 'gar!!!!! I ordered it for new years but no one bought it :( so I get to buy it and smoke it :)) It is a Puros Indios Gran Victoria 11 in. by 70 cm the Johhny Holmes of cigars. It's bigger than the Immense ok ok ok I know some of you are thinking it's not the size that matters...I'm leaving that one up to the others because I have the altimate...the best cigar ever made...(what a statement) A.F. Opus X #2....almost need a cigerette after thinking about it. Yes most cubans are good yet I have not had one to touch an Opus X...
I'm sorry got off (stop) on the wrong track there. Hey why am I so wired this Am coming to Beckley tomorrow doing businees with Raleigh Co. B.O.E. and soon to be back at WWHS. I can smell the General Tso's cooking now baby and of course the leather and nutmeg of a great cigar

Message: I remember taking standardized too. They are a strange and yes stupid way to measure someone's intelligence. If you have straight A's and fail the standardized test does that mean you're dumb? NO! Some schools even have a rule that if you don't pass the standardized tests you don't graduate - no matter what your GPA. Is that how it is at WWHS?
It's sad to think that a teacher can't ""teach"" so the children can ""learn."" My niece told me that one of her teachers told the class that he had to review standardized test material and when that was done and the tests were over he could do what he loved - teach his classes. Let the teachers teach!!!!!
OK enough on my soapbox. As far as early tests I'm usually more alert in the mornings than in the afternoons but not before 8:00 a.m.! At least testing in the mornings means it's out of the way but 7:20 is a bit early.

Now I guess that was a little mean cause there are rednecks that have fingernails to long and they can't put them up there nose. You ever wondered why female rednecks have such 'big hair'?? They must still watch Dolly and the Porter Wagner Show.

Even you are smart enough to realize that the Friends and Fans of Kelly did not post about your mom having whorish dog sex. For one we like and respect Bull too much to publicly humiliate him by connecting him to your family. Also even though you're a low-life sack of sh*t your mom might be a decent person.

Evidence:
1.) They have the exact same mediocre writing style.
2.) They say the exact same half-witted things/poems/song lyrics. None of which ever make sense or have comedic value.
3.) Cigar Boy needs to make up imaginary friends (i.e. ""friends at the cigar shop friends who have given him nicknames supporters et cetera).
4.) No two people have enough time to create the same type of inferior illegible uninspiring lack-luster and mindless drivel that this CIGAR BOY displays on a daily basis on the message board.

NOW... for real evidence that I AM NOT the same as the King check out the message thread titled ""Merry Christmas Kelly""
There you will find that Cigar King gave me my nickname and I adopted it. Read message dated Thurs. Dec 14th 11:59:50 I replied to a post by saying ""Don't feel like the Lone Ranger... I'm confused too???""
Cigar replied Thurs. Dec 14th 22:15:22 ""Who are you Tonto?""
The next message Friday Dec.15th 11:03:49 I replied with the name Tonto.
Get it dweeb??? Lone Ranger.... Tonto????!!!!!
Maybe it's over your head... who knows.
I don't know of anybody that would go through that much trouble to make it look like two different people are posting. What would be the point anyway?
As far as the likeness between us... can two people not have the same sense of humor... just because you don't?
And as far as the songs go... well if you noticed I Tonto only posted one... and that was a chore in itself to come up with... a poet I don't claim to be. My man King is much more creative than I am so I believe I will the the poem writing up to him.
Who said Kings friends were made up? Do you go with him to buy his cigars? I think not.
You can think what you want to the same as anybody else. I'm just having fun entertaining everybody or annoying them... whichever it is I do.

First Mr. Cartoon George Lewis dead
The Associated Press
HUNTINGTON - George Lewis the original ""Mr. Cartoon"" for WSAZ-TV has died from cancer. He was 74.
Lewis died Monday at his home near Baltimore.
During the late 1950s and 1960s Lewis entertained children in West Virginia Kentucky and Ohio as the star of WSAZ's ""Steamboat Bill"" and ""Mr. Cartoon"" programs.
Jule Huffman took over the role of ""Mister Cartoon"" in 1969 when Lewis left WSAZ to take a job with a Maryland television station.
""George was a very talented man and loved doing story line "" said Huffman.
""He put his whole heart and soul into it.""
Lewis began his career at WSAZ in 1957 as a staff announcer. He also was a news anchor for the station.
""He was a nice easygoing person "" said Bos Johnson former news director at WSAZ. ""But he had strong convictions. The program was for the children.""
Lewis is survived by his wife Dorothy Douekin Lewis and five daughters.
A private memorial service will be Friday at St. Stephens Traditional Episcopal Church Timonium Md.

It's sad but true that you are nearly 15 to 20 years out of high school. The grammar rules that you cited while for the most part correct have changed since your old sad ass was in school. There is no need to put a comma before AND but obviously you never went to class to learn this instead you opted for a life of private misery and self-loathing.

I've read so many posts about us I don't know where to start!
First of all how can anybody accuse us of slander defamation... and...and... we have been accused of so much I can't keep up! My point being it appears to me all the anti Cigar/Tonto people (as they call themselves... so much for creativity) are the guilty ones here!
Second I can assure everybody we are two separate people. Nothing against ""Sybil"" or anything but I know I'm not bi-polar or multiple. Although I sometimes wish there were more than just one of me.. I could do double the work and have double the fun!!
And where did this ""homo"" stuff come from??? That sure is a far off judgement! That doesn't even deserve any recognition so I'll just drop it now.
Call me an engine or whatever racist remark you want to makes no diff to me. I'll just keep you in mind the next time I perform a rain dance... It's all in fun the way I see it.
Anyways to our fine critics just keep hateing us slandering us pointing out our misspellings and typos making your poor judgments...whatever tickles your little fancy. Just remember that life is short and you should enjoy the time you have however you see fit.

Message: Perhaps this self proclaimed CIGAR BOY is not a boy at all. Perhaps this author is in fact a lassie or cheerleader simply wanting to squash the Kelly movement. The more attention this Cigar Girl receives is less time and attention Kelly Blevins so deserves. I would not be surprised at all if this CIGAR BOY is a small pawn in the teacher establishment that has held us down for years. Well CIGAR FRUIT it will not work. We will continue to identify the holes in your grammar and spelling. We will continue to point out your problems with sentence structure and coherent thought. We can do all these things and continue the fight for the cause that is Kelly. Or perhaps we can simply ignore the Cigar Droid thus compounding his/her attention deprivation. Cigar BOY no one is picking on you in fact we are all trying to show you the way. Its not about giving ourselves nicknames writing styles that merely reflect our grammatical short comings or false portrayals of writers claiming to be our ""fans."" It is about the integrity and greater meaning of Kelly. Please if you are going to contribute humor substantive thought or tid-bits do so with some sort of understanding of the language.

Message: I have no clue as to the identity of the ""cigar king."" With his/her wonderful economy of words and sheer mastery of the english language I am perplexed as to why he/she is not writing great pieces of literature or periodical thoughts. Obviously the cigar king is a highly educated person who would never stoop so low as to self prescribe nicknames which are indicative of a deeper want for glamour/attention or cosmopolitan make believe. Surely I am not alone when I proclaim the greatness of Cigarman. Surely others are impressed with the great insight and depth of his/her words? Ok cigar man now for the truth. Participate in this message board if you must. If you do please do not try to use words or sentence structure that are beyond your ability. Be proud of what little intellectual might you possess and try to learn and practice the teachings of the better writers on this board. You will be doing your teachers parents and friends a favor by ending the fruitless reach at proper command of our language. Do not call yourself cheesy names like Cigar man they immediately discredit you as a thinker just leave the name space blank for the sake of the few people that may like you.

Message: 1. Condense your thoughts and writings into a well constructed and easy to read format. Some of the younger writers on here (I'm guessing they are younger) are using speech-like writing patterns to express themselves. This style is not only irritating to the reader but also shows a lack of respect for past English teachers.
2. Quit using girly-man symbols in your writings. Stuff like :( :0 :{ is not only bizarre it's hard to read little-girl like and again irritating to the reader. Save this stuff for your chat room love letters.
3. Quit talking about the maturity level of this website. This site has some great humor on it. Learn to appreciate it or otherwise ignore it. Even though you're probably oblivious to it all your maturity talk bores the crap out of everyone.

Why is Nehlen an issue but not Catlett? Have we let his hideous records poor recruiting and smartass demeanor slide because he is from Hedgesville? Damn Hedgesville. Catlett must go immediately. His teams stink the Coliseum is empty and we're playing Southeastern Missouri State Junior Colleges every other game.
Step down Gale it would be a step up for Mountaineer fans everywhere especially the ones who would like to have seen WV talent play against the Big East. I'll bet Bimbo Coles Jared Pricket Bruce Martin Jason Nelson Kevin English Jason Williams Tamar Slay and Ghandi Jordan to name a few could have put it on WVU's
Big East competition.
Gale Catlett must go there is no excuse for our horrible WVU basketball team. Nehlen might have had an excuse for football but Catlett has no excuse. If Jerry West came out of Cabin Creek today he'd be at Virginia Tech Kentucky or Florida because Catlett has no eye for talent. His only talents are producing piss-poor basketball teams and bitching.

Subject: ONE FINAL PLEA FOR KELLY THE GREAT
Date: Tuesday 5-Dec-2000 16:41:06
Message: As I sit here tears streaming down my face (a face often referred to as nerdy or ugly I can think of only one thing to pull me from misery. Her name......Kelly Blevins. Some of you may be joking on this message board others may be confused and still others my be having harmless fun. However I for one truly did live to talk to Kelly during English class in 11th grade. You see I was not the most attractive guy in highschool and I was surely not the most athletic but I was somewhat intelligent. None of the pretty girls those that were cheerleaders or lassies or band members would ever even talk to me. I would bet that 99% of those guys and girls that were the ""A"" crowd didn't even know I existed. Kelly always brightened my day with her perfect smile fun spirit and welcoming attitude. Never did she stand in a crowd and laugh as my books were knocked out of my arm in between classes she never sat and pointed when people threw apples oranges and other luncheon items at me as I sat in the cafeteria. I considered her my friend even though I did not have a close relationship with her. So while some of you have fun at Kelly's expense and others continue to harbor ill will towards her I want you to know that she was a bright spot in my life. I have now moved on and married a wonderful woman and we have a great life. Nonetheless I still place Kelly on the perverbial pedestal for helping bring me out of my shell and make a more complete and caring man out of me. Many of you could take just one page from her book of humanity and our world would be a more beautiful and honest place. So Kelly if you are out there know that you are a rose a woman with an innate ability to make everyone around you smile. I am glad I had a chance to know you.
Sincerely
A quiet soul made vibrant and alive by Kelly

Subject: Coaches Don Nehlen Rich Rodriguez and Bobby Pruett and a world of pertulant Marshall Fans
Date: Monday 4-Dec-2000 13:23:57
Message: We WVU fans grow so very tired of all you small petulant children (AKA ""Herd"" Fans)trying to belittle WVU. A few points.
1). You had your chance to play us AND YOU LOST. It is important to remember during that game you had Randy Moss AND Chad Pennington.
2). You had a chance to play us the two following years according to the signed contract but you backed out. No reason to speculate as to the reason you didnt keep your word you still BACKED out.
3). Coach Pruett should be reputed for his classless and shameless ""game playing"" with Coach Rodriguez the very day he was named as WVU's head coach. Forgive me if I am wrong but I dont recall Coach Carl Lee demanding that Marshall play WV State the day Pruett was named as Marshall's Head Droid.
4). Last week Coach Pruett claimed that the last time WVU and MU played ""we brought 65 000 people to the stadium."" That seems a little arrogant given that this past weekend MU played for the mighty MAC championship IN Huntington and was only able to garner 25 000 fans. An open message to Coach Pruett and MU supporters everywhere WVU DOES NOT NEED YOU TO FILL THEIR STADIUM YESTERDAY TODAY OR EVER. Even if we did you would fail because you can't even fill your own stadium.
5). You should not be happy that Coach Nehlen is retiring. He would not run up the score on you bozos Coach Rodriguez will and I say good for him!
6). Much like Communist China your school and athletic program is funded on the backs of taxpayers everywhere. This is again because you can't generate enough ticket sales to fill your stadium and therefor have to rely on Brother Government to bail you out. Last time I checked WVU's athletic department was not an albatross around the necks of hard working West Virginians.
7). Coach Pruett
Subject: These Al Gore type WVU fans can twist the truth as much as they want
Date: Monday 4-Dec-2000 15:07:23
Message: These extremist Mountaineer fans want to hide behind money stadiums sizes and their supposed eliteness. They attack Bobby Pruett who is one of Beckley's finest sons. However with all of the arguing aside it boils down to WVU not wanting to play Marshall. The West Virginia administration is denying the state and the nation a true rivalry game because of one thing fear. Marshall scares them to death. This is a program that is truly on the rise and they cannot stand it. I figured Nehlen who often spoke of subpar teams as ""being scary"" or ""frightening"" due to cowardly qualities was behind all of this mess. I suppose its roots go far beyond him though the game will never happen.
Subject: If Don Nehlen is the Al Gore of WVU/MU sega Bobby ""Im not a smart man"" Pruett is the Ross Perot
Date: Monday 4-Dec-2000 16:07:51
Message: The above posted message is the obvious work of someone that did not graduate from either WVU or MU I suspect. A mere rabble rouser. The argument that WVU is scared of MU is not only ridiculous it has out lived its value. WVU agreed to play MU for three consecutive seasons. MU agreed to play WVU for three consecutive seasons. WVU played MU once at Mountaineer field and beat them. MU then reneged on its word and cancelled the remaining two games. A basic degree of intelligence not common among MU grads/fans/coaches would lead one to believe MU didn't want to play WVU again. Again comparing Bobby Pruett to Don Nehlen is fruitless. While you can be proud of the modest accomplishments Pruett has made at MU he has not played for two national championships finished in the top 25 on 6 different seasons played in 13 bowl games won 200+ games been ranked in America's top 5 winningest active coaches served as the president of NCAA Coaches Association 2 times and has not yet been revered as a legend in the anals of college athletics. The Nehlen era ends the Rodriguez rein begins and the Pruett era well.... it continues to whine beg borrow and plead for a game against its big brother in Morgantown. A final thought Pruett is not one of Beckley's finest sons. He is from East Beckley. If Don Nehlen is the Al Gore of WVU/MU sega Bobby Pruett is the Ross Perot.

Message: OK...my input. WVU/Marshall...do any of you realize that they have joint graduate colleges...I thought not! Most don't and most don't care. It would be a great rivalry that is why Marshall just built an addition to their stadium. It couldn't hold the amount of WVU fans that would come and still would be pushing it. I'm not being mean just facts WVU has one of the largest following around. I was at Marshall's graduation this past summer and they had their largest graduating class ever!!! But it was just a couple thousand. Remember Marshall
is a small school not a mean thing to say just a fact. I graduated from a Community College in Roanoke VA that had more in it's graduating class and needless to say they had no football team. I live and love WV football which means WVU but I support Marshall as a West Virginian just a couple more things...I promise! I would love to see this rivalry get going soon I would love to see WVU stomp Marshall each time and why did that wierdo have to mention starving children when we are talking football?

Message: You self-proclaimed uppity types from Beckley think it's really cute to make fun of McDowell County's poverty and people. I too used to be guilty of this Appalachia stereotyping until I became more familiar with the people places and plight of McDowell County. Yes the people of McDowell are more rural but they are also more rugged than us. The economy there is in bad shape but Welch has more of a downtown than Beckley has had in years. Beckley has McBride they have Hickam. Beckley has Woodrow they have Mt. View. Beckley is the self-proclaimed ""City of Champions"" Northfork is the ""Basketball Capital of the World"". Both counties have diverse aging populations. The similarities are countless however there is one huge difference. The Interstate system. It's the ONLY THING that separates high-phalutant Beckley from being exactly like Welch. Thank whoever you want for the roads but just remember those ""poor old mountain people"" in Welch could very well have been us if we didn't have I-77 and I-64 running straight through town.

You can't blame it all on the coach a lot of the blame can go elsewhere. When wrestling was in its prime you didn't see all the girlymen wandering the halls of WWHS like you do now.

Message: I recently read the following post on this web page's message board:
Did we just compare Coach B and Bobby Knight? Don't get me wrong I think Dave is a good coach but give me a break!
I must admit that I was angered by this. My dad coached at Beckley for 18 years. He did so much for the town and yet people like this believe that just b/c he has chosen to coach at the high school level that an abusive college coach like Knight is far superior to Dave Barksdale. I have always supported Knight but I think that it is a joke to compare him to my dad. Barksdale is a far better man than Knight. Once my dad left our home at 4:00 a.m. on Christmas morning to go to the hospital where one of his player's mother had just past away. Dad has spent thousands on gas to drive his players to visit colleges during their senior years when the parents were unable to do so. Barksdale did this without a single complaint. My dad was born in Beckley and he cared so much about the city. His parents are buried there many of his friends still live there and he raised his kids there. Barksdale was a great asset to Beckley and he misses it a great deal. Please do not put him down or laugh when he is compared to famous college coaches because I assure you he knows as much about the game as Knight does. knight has known my dad for years and so has John Wooden Dean Smith Lefty Driesel Coach K and many others. You should be prowd to have seed my dad in action b/c he was a great one.
P.S. My family misses Beckley and all of our friends there a great deal. Good luck to Coach Kidd and his team in the upcoming season. I know that they will do great!

I do not want anyabody blowing any horns; I am just stating that I think that it is unfair for anyone in Beckley to belittle what Dave Barksdale has done there. I understand that you might think that I am trying to leach onto my dad to feel important but you are absolutely wrong. I just think that dad deserves nothing but good comments on this page.

He was however always portrayed as some ""out of control wild eyed coach"" by a lot of the media the fans of other teams and others who really never knew him. He was always intense at the games and that was all most people ever saw of him. The unknowing did not realize all that he did for his players fans coaches students and family. He was compassionate and considerate. I personally will miss him and wish him the best of luck. As his son you must be very proud. You also must be very thick skinned and must not let the unknowing get to you!

Message: We have much to be proud of in West Virginia. Its solid salt of the earth hard working people and the great beauty of our surrounding Allegheny Mountains. Then we have Mountaineer football....Beckley's own Bobby Pruit has and is still building something special in Huntington. Although this season Marshall will clearly not be ranked in the top 10 they continue to improve weekly. The reason....? Marshall has a winning attitude. Coach Nehlen has shown over the past several years his art of making excuses. To quote Coach Nehlen ""West Virginia has alot of trees but not any Divison I football players"". So he goes on to recruit players which could not cut it at FSU U of F Central Florida and Miami. This makes up three-fourths of his squads every year. Meanwhile Bobby Howard JR House Randy Moss and countless others all go unrecruited. To quote Mr. Nehlen again ""Yes Moss is tough but look at his competition"". Don countless proud West Virginia fans everywhere thank you for retiring. The embarressment we suffer from you losing bowl games every year can finally stop. Now that ""Yellow Don"" is leaving maybe the this great state can have its own version as Alabama vs. Auburn with the Herd and Mountaineers clashing yearly.

I often wonder if the high volume of homework children are assigned this day and time doesn't contribute to them getting ""burned out"" on school before they ever reach Jr. High.

I don't believe in busy work but I do think new skills have to be reinforced. I also think students should spend time studying for tests and completing special projects at home.

that sets time limits for homework for students at different levels. I really think elementary kids are involved in too many after-school activities and need more time to just be kids.

Kids are being forced to grow up much to fast this day and time which is a direct result of all the trouble they find theirselves in much too early in life. I do beleive that a child should be responsible for bringing home uncompleted school work. They should also study for upcoming tests. But assigning a third grader work to be done AT HOME is a pushing it. My son (a 3rd grader) has at least 1 hours worth of homework to do Mon-Thurs. evening. It ends up being a hassle for everyone in the household. I hate to think that teachers are being MADE to assign homework when they themselves don't find it necessary.

I didn't really know any of your class well when I was at WWHS (class of '90) but I like and admire your spirit. Although there were a few decent folks in my class most were of them were pretty weak.
I did know Kelly Blevins from Beckley Junior High and I can say that she was always nice to me even if I wasn't the most popular or coolest guy in school.
So I guess I hope that Kelly becomes your reunion queen but more importantly it's my desire that your class continues to stay spirited virtuous and close unlike the bunch of losers I graduated with.

Back at WWHS EVERYONE liked Kelly more than you self centered half wit cheerleaders. While you were more worried about your looks and who was dating who we were worried about where we were going to attend college and what paths to take our lives on. Simply now we don't have to fear you and your teacher establishment because you have no control over us we are now in charge of the job markets and you are in charge of the super markets.

However the people have spoken. Down with your lies down with your backstabbing down with your good 'ole teacher/popular girl crowd. You people (Cheerleaders/some lassies) have met your match.
Her name is Kelly Blevins. Make fun of her or her fans as you may but she is one of us she is us.
Whenever we looked to you (Cheerleaders/some lassies) for support or leadership where were you???
We never asked for much but when we did why did you never have time for us???
Why did you always sell us out to the teacher establishment when it counted most???
I'll tell you why because you
(Cheerleaders/some lassies) were never on our side in the first place. You were only concerned with getting your next crown or title.
But Kelly Blevins was us. She never laughed at our thoughts our complaints or our feelings about the real issues affecting us. She supported the geeks thesbians athletes and dopeheads all the same. She Cared about us.
That is why she is our Queen. The People's Queen. The Queen of the Class of 1991. The only WWHS Queen I will ever pay homage to.

This can probably be blamed much like the Kelly Blevins situation on the WWHS faculty/cheerleader establishment alliance in the 1940's or 50's. Back then they had MALE cheerleaders who were probably just as jealous of King Harley Race as the cheerleaders in our time were of Queen Kelly Blevins.

We also do not need nor want other WWHS class years reigning over us even with their pop icons. Their will be no coronation without representation in our class. Finally we the Class of 1991 don't believe in Kings. Our royalty was is and will always be female. Her name is Reunion Queen Kelly Blevins and she is very beautiful. Please people think before you make any more anonymous comments about how our class needs to act or who we need to reign over this glorious class.
*One last note so as not to cause confusion King Harley Race is welcome and will be invited to the Class of 91's ten year reunion. He will finally get his just due from WWHS and be honored in some way by the class he just will not be receiving any sort of crown or title from the Class of 1991. We love the King but as explained above he is not eligible for Queen Blevin's Crown.

Message: We the supporters of Kelly Blevins are tired of fearleaders and WWHS faculty politico claims that Kelly was somehow ""crowned"" in high school. This is a lie and a total rewriting of WWHS history. The actual vote tallies have never been released and many of our 1991 classmates are aware of voting irregularities to include but not limited to miscounted and trashed Kelly Blevins votes. Sadly these students are still mostly too scared to speak out for fear of retribution. Kelly was thrown a token crumb from the fearleaders and stormteachers in high school but it was to keep her and her admirers quiet during the teacher's strike that tore our community apart in the late 80's and early 90's. The faculty political establishment of the time cut a deal with the fearleaders to further their left-wing 60's style teacher's union agenda. The fearleaders would get their crowns if they agreed to publicly support the teachers strike that year. Faculty members were scared that Kelly would raise awareness that it's immoral and illegal for teachers to strike. We knew these people were only hurting our education but we had no unified voice as Kelly was not in a position to speak out. The WWHS political machine figured putting a pretty but controlled face under each major crown would serve their purpose of keeping the WWHS student body supportive or at least apathetic to their strike. They were wrong we wanted to learn but for weeks Beckley was a battleground of jackrock white collar union demands and fearleaders telling us it's cool to party and not go to school. Some major WWHS queens even wore red shirts and and were photographed militantly marching on Charleston with the strikers. But not our Kelly. She stood by us and supported our efforts to reopen the school house doors to a world of learning. Her movement helped lead to an underground homeschool railroad that kept us well prepped for the SAT and ACT and the eventual return to school. It's becau

Message: After reading every entry on the subject I'm inclined to voice my own opinion. You see I'm a future graduate of WWHS. And yes I am in the class of 2001. We are not hethens. In fact I wouldn't dare to say that even 5% of the students are. I know that I'm working my butt off trying to get into the school of my choice and get the scholarships to pay for it. And I know alot of others who are doing the same thing. Our class is being judged by the class before us. How is that fair? We have been asked about graduation and we do want one. But we've been informed that it will be under the rules and guidelines of our esteemed faculty. Who in case you wondered aren't at all enthusiastic about helping us. So it's up to us and our parents. All support would be appreciated.

The school is simply trying to maintain some semblance of decorum in order to honor all graduates. I graduated during Hutch's administration. He instructed us not to toss our caps at our ceremony which we thought was ridiculous. You know what? No one tossed a cap because we did what our principal expected us to do.

I agree with the 2001 graduate. It's not fair to be judged by the people before them. And they never blamed anything on the faculty. Only stated what was said to the students. This class was not seated wearing cap and gowns at last year's graduation. They are completely different people. And for all anyone outside of the school knows no expectations on the class of 2001 have been set. And from what I hear only ""You can't do this...."" is what they've heard.

How do you figure that we are spoiled? You had your graduation why can't we have ours? Would you rather someone threw a huge party that every senior attended and then read about deaths from car accidents in the next mornings paper? I don't think my parents would appreciate it much and yours wouldn't have either. What's wrong with looking at us as a new class and giving us a fair chance? We haven't had that. In the 10th grade we were told that if the classes before us acted up at graduation then we would not have one. How exactly were we supposed to influence how they acted and their graduation? They didn't care about us. They got their ceremony and that's all we want to.

However expectations should be set forth and much
of the resposibility for the kids has to be put on the shoulders of the parents. If parents show their kids that the ceremony matters the students will likely behave a little better.

Subject: Seriously impaired: an explanation
Date: Saturday 21-Oct-2000 10:08:56
Message: Seriously impaired"" is a term created by the state department of education. They could have easily called it ""slightly deficient"" or ""doesn't meet our standards"" but they didn't and ""seriously impaired"" sounds worse than it is. The state department (in an effort to improve education across the state) decided to LEGISLATE test performance. (This works about as well as legislating ""peace on earth and good will towards men."") The criteria that WWHS doesn't meet is the one that states that a school must not have more than 15% of its students score in the 25th percentile or below of the nationa achievement test used by the state of WV(SAT-9). A school has three years to meet the standard.
In order to meet this goal the school score better than the national average on the test. In 1998-99 the school had 19% of its students score in the bottom 25%. In 1999-2000 the school only had 17% in this section of the test. This was an improvement but not enough of one. WWHS must count among its test scores the students from WWHS at the alternative school and the socially promoted (policy ID) 9th graders who attend the school. These students could care less about the test. It doesn't hurt them to score poorly. Most of them don't even take it seriously. They color in the dots and take a nap (and if you are thinking you can make them do it right you have not been in a public school lately.)
The morale of the faculty over this is terrible. Every school has their poor teachers Woodrow has no more of them than any other school and WWHS has a lot of fine teachers who are tired of being made to look like ""scum of the earth"" by the news. The old saying ""you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink"" is very true. You can not educate people who do not want to be educated.

I also feel that the teacher should have let Tammi know of the problem the second or third time her son's homework was not completed. I think Tammi has a right to be upset. I live in Ohio now and am very pleased with the system we have here. The teachers make sure that we parents know what our children have for homework especially the younger ones. I don't think some of you people here should be so nasty. It's a sure sign of immaturity.

Pointing fingers does not improve the quality of the education the students of Woodrow receive. We must recognize that those of us over 30 are now in charge of the world and as such we are collectively responsible for this problem. It would seem to be incumbent upon the Raleigh County School Board to make the changes necessary at Woodrow to assure a quality education whether that be changing curriculum or personnel. It is the duty of the rest of us to support those efforts which will alleviate the situation. Crying whining finger pointing and complaining will not remedy the situation. It is trite but true to point out that those who are not a part of the solution are part of the problem.

Message: It's because of parents like you... who deny most all personal responsibility feel your kid is never wrong and can't wait to sue the teacher or school system when they finally get fed up with your piece of crap kid.
The reason WWHS and most schools are not what they were 30 years ago or even 10 years ago is because alot of kids do not respect teachers enough anymore to do what's right. They don't even hide their wrongdoings or disdain for authority figures like they used to.
They got this attitude because their PARENTS bitched or denied personal responsibilities so much that schools were forced to dump alot of true educational responsibilities goals and desires of years past.
Instead they have become saddled with feeding your kid babysitting your kid socialworking your kid breaking up your kid's fights getting cussed at and around by your kid getting sued by your kid calling Mommy when your kid doesn't do his own homework and listening to parent's incessant bs.
It's really a joke when you think about it but it's a sad joke and you are just a continuation of the cycle.

I'm not denying that he was not at some fault. And he was punished for it. In his mind (mind of a 7 yr. old) all he was focusing on was the fact that he was getting out of doing homework and wasn't getting caught by the teacher. I'm saying that his teacher supposedly a RESPONSIBLE ADULT should have brought this to our attention before it got out of hand. I talked to her several times face to face during that nine weeks and never ONCE did she question why he wasn't turning in his homework. She falsely led me to believe he was doing fine in class.
So don't you make it sound like the teacher was some helpless victim of my evil child! All of his teachers have always commented on what a good kid he is how mannerly and respectful he is. The same goes for friends and neighbors.
As for me expecting the teachers schools or anybody else to babysit and put up with my childrens BS... I'll have you know I volunteer my services at my sons school quite alot I'm there doing my part. I also volunteer at my daughters preschool. I was the vice president of the PTO 2 yrs. ago at my sons school. I'm on the Board of Directors for my sons football league and I coach T-ball. My husband is assistant coach of football and he coaches a minor league baseball team. We are very involved with our children and DO NOT expect anybody to babysit or put up with anything.
So the next time you want to judge my children or my parenting skills get the facts first!

Message: Ummmm....as this was first started to address the educational status of WWHS that's what I'll do. People have been pointing fingers and bickering senselessly. I'm a senior at WWHS this year and although this won't affect my diploma from an accredited high school it could affect my sister who is one year behind me. I've always been a hard worker so my grades have only suffered if I chose not to do the work. Which is the case for many students when they reach high school no matter where it is. However I've been enrolled in AP courses and a variety of electives during my years at WWHS. Being one of the largest schools in the county Woodrow also overs much more to their students. My teachers do care if I learn. And they do contact a parent if something isn't right. For example my sister's teacher called home during a school day to speak to my mom about missing homework. I walked in the door just as she was erasing the message before either of my parents could hear it. Notes sent home never quite made it either. My mom saw her report card and chose to visit each teacher during the parent-teacher conference and she visited mine as well. Teachers notice alot more than you may think. My 2nd period teacher told my mom about how I tend to nod off during class and asked if there was a problem at home. The only problem was that I had just started my first job and was juggling that with schoolwork and chores at home and any extracurricular activities as well. Newsflash for me: Welcome to the real world. So to bring my babbling to an end teachers aren't to blame. They do their very best with what they're given. Students have to decide whether or not to learn. And that's simply the bottom line.

Subject: WWHS BAND!!!! BRING THE PRIDE BACK!!!
Date: Friday 22-Sep-2000 16:00:21
Message: The present Band Director at WWHS has no right to teach our kids music. My son had him a couple of years ago and said he was totally incompetent. My son was on the WVU Drumline so he knows a lot about music and band directors.When he was a sophomore there was more than 100 kids in the band and they sounded and looked good. They competed and won awards. They were hard working prideful and glad to be in the band.
The present director REFUSED to participate in the Kid's Classic parade last weekend because ""The kids
are not ready yet for a parade."" How can the junior high bands be prepared but the high school isn't? I know of one corporate sponsor who was very upset that the WWHS band was not in the parade. Their comment was ""We donate a lot of money to that school and he won't even bring the band to the parade when we need him!""
He doesn't even have the right school colors! Woodrow's colors are not cranberry red black and gold! I feel for the kids who are out there trying. They deserve all of the support we can give them. They are very brave and need to be commended.
No wonder there is less than 30 students in the marching band. My junior high daughter says she will not be in the band at Woodrow and I am not going to force her. There is nothing that would make me happier than to see her as a member of the Pride of the Skyline!! But not the way it is now!
I would like to know how this guy can collect a check from the Raleigh County school system but NOT send his kids to school? That's right he homeschools his own kids! I don't agree with that situation at all.
I have had a son who played in WVU's band two daughters who are present or former field commanders and silk line members so I know what I am talking about.
WE WANT THE PRIDE OF THE SKYLINE BACK!!!
Our kids school and city deserve better!!!

The band there has no motivation anymore junior high and high school kids don't get to see us or any of the other collge bands in the states. On a trip to beckley i talked to the present director and asked him to contact our director about a possible show in Beckley and it turned out one of our shows got cancelled and if he would have called the kids would have go to se us. I know when i was a sophomore in high school the WVU band came and perfomred at woodrow and it was something that motivated me to stay and band and to have fun. We may not have been one of the best bands but we had fun and we were competitive. If you have kids or know kids in the band strongly encourage them to come see us or even that little green band over near Ohio. It can do them some good I know it did me. Thanks Pat!

Message: I have read with much sadness the entries for the band problems the problems at WWHS and all the fingerpointing online. I wonder how many takers you had that took the advice to attend a Board meeting and voice their concerns. I'm so afraid that all of society today is a result of the 70's of the ""If it feels good - do it"" and ""I can do whatever I want if it affects no one else"". It does affect as behavior has changed respect and duty have been replaced with a selfishness that is scary among the young. No I am not blaming the young they are the result of us as parents and the job we did in allowing society to dictate how we raise our children. I shudder to think if WWII happened now would there be enough to answer a draft or what will happen to our generation when we become too old to function anymore. No I don't think this is a bad group of kids coming up. They need a good dose of life and the realization that the world does not owe them a thing to stand up on those feet and do what is expected of them and make no excuses. I do hope the problems at WWHS can be resolved but it will take a commitment from parents kids and teachers to pull this off. The band problems sound like a result of low morale. If I understood the posting correctly the cancellation of graduation exercises should be rethought as this will only add to the morale issue there. Perhaps if parents could be more mindful of their children's planned activities for that day and be aware they themselves could be held accountable for actions unbecoming the exercises could be held without incident. It's going to take alot of cooperation on all fronts to take care of all the problems and fingerpointing is not the answer.

Message: In 1977 I was in the Park Jr. High band. We had great training from Jack Stewart and we received a lot of help from Concord College and West Virginia University. We played in charleston with xylophones chimes tympanies and vibraphones all borrowed from those schools. We also had the WVU drum line give us all pointers. That was at Park Jr High. If the instructor wants to motivate the band he will. The great WWHS bands of the 70's and 80's started at Stratton Beckley and Park. The 3 Jr highs fought tooth and nail with each other. The results were large great WWHS bands. The 79 WWHS band was one of the largest representatives of WVU Band Day. If everyone who was in the JR High band thought Alan Staton was not worth being in band for we would have done it anyway. We all made him a better director. The instruction came from Jr High and private teaching. If you love band..you should do it anyway. It looks like everyone has decided because it is not worth it to do it why do it? The members of the band make the band. The spirit comes from your enjoyment of the music. Tell your kids not to quit and to make the WWHS band the place to be.

Subject: 1989 WWHS Football Story
Date: Monday 25-Sep-2000 15:31:17
Message: I did not crap my pants in the 1989 Oak Hill game for the fun of it or because I couldn't control my bowel movements. It happened because I had to go extremely bad and Coach Culicerto and Coach Hill (my dad) would not let me come out of the game and go to the locker-room. I asked three times to go and was ordered back into the game all three times.
So it happened and it sucked. It was easily one of the most embarrasing moments of my life but life goes on no matter what happens during a Friday night game in Beckley.
It is true that I could have ignored everyone and run to the locker-room but I was not raised to put my wants ahead of my coaches my teammates or my desire to win a football game. Although I've screwed up here and there throughout life I don't think my loyalty or desire to win has ever been called into question.
In retrospect I would probably still endure horrible stuff again if I had to for Coach Culicerto my dad WWHS and my beloved City of Beckley. All of these people places and ideas were and remain more important to me than my own personal desires or embarrassments.
I owe all of them a thank you for helping me build character through the good and bad times in life.
Additionally I would like to acknowledge Shawn Anderson who was quarterbacking that night in Beckley. He never did bitch about the incident and if anybody had a right to it was him as I was centering on offense. For that he endeared himself to me forever as did the Trainer Jerry Hartsog who kept checking on me after the game. Even after 10 years I will always remember his kindness.
Finally it doesn't bother me that this website has a sense of humor. I can take the lowest of low blows no matter what even if it still hurts just a little.
What bothers me here though is seeing guys names that I played with or watched play be made fun of for lacking natural talent. Most of them never quit

Message: This goes out to the comedian who wants to bust my chops and Fred Hill's.
I don't know who you are nor do I care. What I do know is that High School has been over for nearly ten years. For the record I am going to clear the air on some things.
1. The person who had ""special"" shoulder pads was me the reason is because I moved to California half way through the season of 10th grade. I kept on getting ""stingers"" because the H.S. there had less than adequate equipment so my father purchased me the top of the line shoulder pads which where made by Donzi's. We moved back to WV in July before my Junior season at WWHS and I considered wastefullness not to use the pads at WWHS.
2. I left West Liberty for personal reasons. Remember this I earned the right to be there!
3. To say that I did not work hard offends me very much. Yes my knee injury in which I yelled knock me out was both dramatic and embarrassing. However I will take the ribbing from my teammates not cowards who hide and play ""like a geek"" on the internet. That knee injury also robbed me of a full season my junior year but I still lettered and started every game that I was healthy. To the work comment I made myself a player at WWHS. I am not one of the losers that pissed away talent. I had a limited amount to talent to give. What I do know is that my teammates and coaches at WWHS respected me and that is all that matters.
4. I played with Fred Hill III for 2 years. He played every down hard and was a team player. His incident vs. Oak Hill was unfortunate but he played the game! He did not let that take him out of the game. He is in the WWHS Hall of Fame which to me speaks wonders about the person. I wish that I could find out who is writing this jibberish about all of the former players mentioned. It's probably someone who never played at all for which makes you the largest coward of a

I didn't really like the tone of your message and I fealt that it suggested that b/c Barksdale coached on a different level than Knight that Dave (dad) was inferior. I like Knight but I feel that he knows no more about the game of basketball than Dave Barksdale. If you disagree than maybe you should be on Knight's search commitee for a new job.

Message: The problem is in the junior high schools. That is where it starts. When we were ""coming up"" there was competition in the junior highs. Band directors began recruiting in the grade schools. Jack Stewart was playing grade 5 music in junior high. Carl Grooms was doing the same thing. Then we all merged in high school. Once you lost Mr. Grooms from the junior highs and lost others like him the high schools suffered. Look at the junior highs. What are they doing?

Message: Melissa I think you are right. I studied under Mr. Parham at Stratton. He worked us very hard in preparation to join Woodrow's band--as if being in the Flying Eagle Band was a PRIVILEGE not just an option when it came to choosing your electives. I remember that Park and Beckley Jr. did the same thing at that time. While I had friends at both of the other schools it was understood that band was a chance for some competition in other words--how much harder can I work than you...or how much more can I practice? And though the results of some of the auditions and band festivals were tough it was all worth it in the end.

Message: The downfall of the WWHS band began with the introduction of the block system in the high schools. Kids didn't have the time or credits to spare to devote it to the arts. It is so sad having graduated many years ago when Glenn Sallack was the band director and our band was renown all over(size alone) and talent that garnered invitations everywhere to see the turnout and the memories of what once was. Children need the opportunity to represent their school in many ways including the chance to be proud of the band. The competition and dedication learned in band give lessons for life not to mention the gift of pride in a job well done. Such a loss for our children.

Message: The present Band Director at WWHS has no right to teach our kids music. I'm not sure he can even read music. My son had him a couple of years ago and said he was incapable of directing a grade school music class.
The director REFUSED to participate in the Kid's Classic parade last weekend because ""The kids
are not ready yet for a parade."" How can the junior high bands be prepared and the high school cannot? I know of one corporate sponsor who was very upset that the band was not in the parade. Their comment was ""We donate a lot of money into that school and he won't even bring the band to the parade when we need him!""
He doesn't even have the right colors anymore? Since when is Woodrow's colors cranberry red black and gold? I feel for the kids who are out there trying. They deserve all of the support we can give them. They are very brave and need to be commended.
I would like to ask the Board of Education and personnel director how this guy can collect a check from the Raleigh County school system but NOT send his kids to school? That's right he homeschools his own kids! Obviously his wife schools them since he is not there. At least that is the best thing for his kids!!
I have had a son who played in WVU's band two daughters who are present or former field commanders and silk line members so I know what I am talking about.

Message: This is so sad what I am reading about the WWHS band. I was in the band all 3 years in highschool under the directorship of Carl Grooms. He was also my beginning band teacher in 7th grade. He was a tough cookie but looking back now I can see where he was going. He wanted discipline and if you were not willing to give him or yourself that discipline then you did not belong in the band. He worked hard and pushed me to be the very best I could be. This is a quality that teachers and students are missing out on in this day and age. Sounds like the current director is just drawing a pay check! Where did the pride go? I was so proud to be a member of the WWHS marching band and enjoyed watching the audience watch us. It was thrilling. I can't think of anything better than walking into a band competition and having other competitive bands stop and stare at us. Hopefully the school board will come to see that the band is a very worthwhile thing to be involved with and get a new dedicated instructor. It does say a lot about a school!

He taught everyone that it takes talent guts and honor to take place in the band. We always took home a trophy maybe not 1st but it was winning something. Most schools do not have band. I live in a town that hasn't had band or football in fifteen years. That is disgusting. But the leader is the one that needs to build the band. If they do not care then the kids won't either. WWHS messed up when they let a lot of good teachers go. I went through Mr. Parham Mr.Grooms and Mr. Madison. They took nothing from you but taught you alot! What is this guys deal with the students.

Now look at the Beckley Stratton bad...The band director does not believe in marching at all...He wants to do concerts and that is all...What is wrong? Do he know how to make a field show or what.....The music teacher at Stratton Ele. had a great band program so the kids would be ready and the kids were willing to give up recess for the program...The people from the state and the only high rating the school got was due to her music program...She also took time out to help work on the SAT 9 to increase the scores.....She isa now leaving the school because one of the teachers told her that her program was not important...She was to have asked her what is more important reading or music....I thought you had to read to know music so I felt it all went had hand in had.....But it was ok to take the kids out of class to play sports.....The reading teachers don't want to go to the classrooms to do their job so they take the kids out of music and p.e. to reteach. And the music teacher was taking the students to the computer lab to teach them on the computers and that was taken from her.....She was ran off and know we the parents are wondering what will happen to the music program..Not every kid will play ball not every kid will dance but even the child in the wheel chair can learn to use the computer and play an instrument.....So what is the problem why is music not important? So why do other teachers get mad when someone else do a great job and get the credit........After talking to several parents we know that we are losing a great teacher.........The student will have memories.....LET""S GIVE HER A HAND......GOOD LUCK AT YOUR NEW JOB>>>>>GOD BLESS HER GOD BLESS THE BAND PROGRAMS IN THIS COUNTY,,

It was alot of work (we had 637 in our graduating class ) but we really enjoyed planning as we had before doing our 10th 20th 25th and now the 30th. One thing we have realized is that most people want to TALK & VISIT and our complaints were mostly about the band being too loud so.... next time we will do this differently....Most important is a good location (we had our first night at the Country Inns & Suites Conference Center) second night at the Knights of Columbus Hall. The Black Knight Country Club we were at for our 20th and Beaver Creek Golf Course for the 25th. These were great places to gather too. Just remember that you will need to make reservations early to reserve your party.......Food is also important. Everyone wants to eat and enjoy...Please contact me if you have any questions as I would be glad to give you any advice to help you in planning your reunion.

I am a high school teacher in Florida and I maintain the website for our school. I stopped by our 1970 and 1980 class reunions and took a bunch of photos which I have put on the website of my school here in Florida. They proved quite popular. But I would need to rely on alumni to loan me WWHS reunion pictures.

That is what Debbie Vaught emailed me. I am not going to the picnic so it hadn't occurred to me that it was a pretty short time. You might want to check with her at wwhs90@yahoo.com or dvaught@hotmail.com. I think those are the right addresses. If not they are both listed under the reunions section of this website.
See you soon!

I know we are at Foster's on Friday night Daniels Vineyard on Saturday afternoon and Glade Springs Saturday night but what time are we supposed to be there? I haven't heard anything since I paid my 100 bucks and am really starting to get frustrated. I am traveling from quite a distance and would really like to know something so I can plan accordingly.
Does anyone out there know the details of the reunion??? Did I miss seeing something on the website or not get something in the mail?

You are the first to complain everyone else is excited about seeing each other and pay to do it. Our Reunion is actually cheap alot school ask for a whole lot more. So quit complaining and just come. There is always someone who has to complain or get something for nothing thats not how the real world is You usually have to pay to have something nice. I am going to quit talking I think I have said enough.
