Prom Theme
'Always And Forever'
By Steve Soltesz
The combination of prom
tradition together with the
plush surroundings of Bryan
Park helped the theme of
“Always and Forever’’ come
true for many Grimsley
couples at prom.
Bryan Park, with its
modern architecture, provid
ed the couples with enough
room to mix and mingle as
well as a spacious outside
■^eck for a breath of fresh air.
Although the dance floor
was small for the number of
couples attending, many
students improvised by
making their own dancing
area on the surrounding
carpet.
As for music, the disc
jockey, Alexander Andrews,
kept his audience on their
feet with a variety of tunes
including “Get Down On
It’’ by Kool and the Gang
and “Start Me Up’’ by the
Rolling Stones.
Several clothing trends
also were seen coming back
into fashion. Many of the
men chose black and white
tux with tails and more
women wore dresses with a
hoop.
The couples chose a varie
ty of restaurants for pre
prom dining, including
Giovanni’s, Franklin’s, the
Kabuto, several restaurants
in Winston-Salem; and a
select few dined at the City
Club.
And finally, after the
dance, many couples met at
breakfasts or jointly rented
a hotel room in which to
wind down the evening.
The 1982 Prom will be
remembered “Always and
Forever.”
By Steve Soltesz
The other day I was watch
ing reruns of old Three
Stooges shows when sudden
ly I thought: Hey, what if
they ask me, Steve Sanchez,
to make a speech at gradua
tion. Well, now I’ll be ready.
Presented in living 3-D
newsprint is my graduation
speech:
Fellow fish, ladies and
germs, teachers. Dr. Baur,
Mr. President, it is such a
great honor to receive this
diploma of graduation. I’d
like to thank the Academy
(Grimsley) and everyone (Hi,
Mom) that made this pos
sible.
Without the academy’s aid
and discipline through our
adolescent years, we stu
dents would be nothing but a
bunch of weekend partiers
who “skip” educational op
.And Spam For All'
portunity and hang out at
fast food joints at lunchtime.
Grimsley has changed my
perspective on life. I now
believe in the Easter Bunny,
in equality for fieldmice, and
that Mark Twain was the
first Neanderthal to white
wash a dinosaur.
Some of you out there may
be saying to yourselves,
“Hey, what does this guy
know about graduation that I
don’t know?” The answer is:
“nothing.” But I’m on staff
and you’re not.
But seriously,'the question
has been asked of me, “How
do I graduate?” I took it on
myself to research this sub
ject. My mother told me that
one graduates with a cap and
gown. However, my friend
Keith said that he will gra-
uate barely. So now I don’t
know whether to graduate
with or without clothes.
Graduation has traditio
nally been a sad time.
BUNK!!! The only tears I’ll
be shedding are those for the
$7.50 that went toward a cap
and gown. I could have spent
that money on 30 Pac-man
games or the new album by
the Insect Surfers.
Lastly, on the topic of
Grimsley’s future, I think
that students should, have
“closed lunch” next year.
When we have college
break, we really don’t want
you twerps crowding the
restaurants and highways of
our fair city. Besides, I hear
that they’re serving arti
choke pudding with the roast
beast next year. Yumm!!!
So good day and Speun for
all.
