    Hey HCP, do you have one of these? Cleaning out the spare bedroom yesterday and came across this little gem.

    Bro, that award is like gossamer and you left the "all purpose frame" backing page in there so it shows through. Fix that shit. Respect the award.

    Well, you gotta remember the Great Paper Shortage of 1972 - it's a surprise Grant was able to issue the award at all, so the thinness of the paper is no surprise.

    That's the way it was given to me when I graduated. Also, in person you can't really see it as the camera seems to enhance it. They say the camera will expose many flaws.

    Well it was the year that they didn't pass the school budget. Great start to my senior year as they had lost my forecasting sheet for classes so they had no schedule for me. Went to see my counselor to get it straightened out and chose some classes and gave me the option to shadow the classes as they didn't know what classes had room or I could go home and in about a week they would have my schedule. I chose the extra week vacation and then because of the budget cuts we got out of school a month early.

    :cheers:

    I guess reach arounds are against forum rules, but telling someone to shut the fuck up is acceptable. :biglaugh:

    Just open up the back and slip it out! If I was there I'd help, but the restraining order...well, you know.

    I know how to put pictures in frames but like I said, in person it's barely noticeable unless you are really up close and looking for it. Not really that big of a deal.

    lol, why are you making this into an issue? Like I said, it's really not that big of a deal to me. It's been in storage for quite some time until I dug it out yesterday while cleaning. Just so you can relax I removed it. :angel:

    Maybe HCP is really trying to do a nice gesture here by reaching out to an old friend.

    I do not! That is awesome. You might know my dad. He graduated in 1970. John Mears.
    As far as the Grant Hall of Fame goes, I’m on the committee with my dad and brother. I promise you if it’s that last thing I do, I’m getting you kicked out of the hall!!!HAAA!!!!!
    On a serious note, that is a great accomplishment. Our school has an amazing history when it comes to not only it’s athletes, but alumni overall.

    It has to be frustrating that they didn’t even know your name to put it on there!
