That said Kim, Pat, Teri????  Are you kidding me? I mean we all know Eddie Cohee is gay, but at least we know his gender. Is this an SNL skit?  Are they women, men or a mix of the above?  And chorus?  You were/are a chorus person?  WOW, I know nothing about you.  And, you must have hit your head in the bus incident. EVERYONE I know remembers their bus breaking down on a high school trip.

I wouldn't dream of confusing my readers so.  Kim's a chick, Pat's a dude, and Teri...well, just click the links.  Kim and I DID, however, date all the gay boys in our class.  Because someone has to, really.  They're grateful, and not very demanding and they like musical theater!  Perfect, really.

Oh yes, I was in chorus my senior year.  Because I heard they were going to Disney.  And, as Kim reminded me, practice was before school, so your folks had to let you drive if you were in chorus.  I was in chorus, band, theater, the "gifted program", yearbook (sporadically), and probably some other clubs that I don't recall, but I'm sure someone does.  I wasn't really exclusive to any group in high school, I just moved in and out of them as I pleased. It's entirely possible that I was being taunted and reviled.  I am notoriously clueless about these things.  As a result, I have better high school memories than most.  Teach your children this lesson.
