What I want to share with you.

I had the privilege of having Jerry Lewis shoot the finger at me when he was doing an MD telethon from Houston in '72. "Sanding" the firebox and stack early in the morning before the park opened and working on the timing in order to entertain the kids riding the roller coaster. If you worked at the park in '72, '73, or '74 and rode the coaster to loosen it up in the morning, you know what I mean. :) When I started in '70, you had to be a senior in high school or going to college. I was working at the Oriental restaurant and going to A&M. I worked with kids from UT, Auburn, UH, Tech, Southwestern, SFA, SHSU, and many other schools. It was fantastic. Softball games after work, the parties.
