He said, "Fried chicken!" Being a PETA supporter, she sent him to the principal's office.

STEPPING IN HIS BIG TRACKS
I remember once when we had a two-foot snow in Smyrna, Tennessee— something rare even then. I’d gone out into the snow early that morning and it was really futile, because the snow was so deep and so soft that when I stepped down into the snow, the snow went so far up my
