Well done!! definitely the highlight of the evening. Your speech brought back so many memories. I especially like the commentary on Driver’s Ed. One of my more embarrassing moments was as a result of running over one of those silly pedestrians. Mr Mann actually made me get out of the car and apologize to the old woman and her grandchildren that saw me run her over. This terrible act of ruthless driving happened to occur in the school parking lot near lunch time. Good Times.

Thanks again for pulling through with a great speech. Expect another phone call for the twenty.

Yeah, great speech man. I’m sure that you heard Dan and I out there heckling and commenting, but we were mostly rooting you on. I think that Dan downed about 4 beers during your speech, so by the end he was basically shouting obscenities. Nicely done buddy.

Yes, the Timberland’s come through again … somebody thought I was taller.

And so the legend lives on….Great speech! This weekend was proof that we do get better with age. Some of us are funnier (MR), some are taller (Booth!), some are less meat-y (Krusty) and some are just wider (me- but I prefer curvy). We also got better at laughing at ourselves and we’re better friends to eachother. Imagine how fantastic we’ll be in 10 more years! I’m looking forward to the speech already – minus the hecklers.

I second everything. Great speech! I’m sure Dustin Diamond would be very proud of the way you handled that heckler.

I agree with Krusty on taking care of the hecklers. The speech was definately the highlight of the night for me. Even with all the inside jokes my husband enjoyed it and it definately perked up his otherwise boring escort duties. Thanks for the info on this site, I just made it through marital relations. Pretty funny stuff. Since Jeanette had a C-Section you can now say that you know her inside and out (that is my husbands favorite after being there for my two C-sections).

Well done my man. It was funny and accurate. Excellent inside jokes and refrences. I will say the best part was you chastising the peanut gallery like a seasoned pro. Excellent use of just the right amount of profanity. Start working on the twenty year while this debaucle of a weekend is still fresh in your memory.

You probably gathered this from the context of the speech, but in Saved by the Bell terminology, West Valley was the “Valley High” to EHS’s “Bayside High”.

I think that sums it up perfectly.

Anytime you can relate anything to the equivalent of West Valley High, I am all for. Nice work, you had a captive audience. There were no speeches at my reunion that anyone listened to for longer than 2 minutes more or less sat down for. You are a tame crown there at EHS!

Sorry I missed it…

See I lucked out with Driver’s Ed. Simply because Mr. Mann had a connection to swimming (his kids swam, he was an official, etc.) so he and I would just cruise around and talk swimming. And he didn’t really even watch what I was doing. I was doing like 80 on I-82 one day and he just sat there BSing with me…

So I know nothing about this difficulty with procedures and what not.
