I was a schoolteacher; I taught seventh and eighth grade, and I tried to write fiction on the side.

In seventh and eighth grade, grammar and vocabulary were not my favorite subjects.

It was our dream ever since seventh or eighth grade. Ever since we found out the game was (at UA), we made it our goal to get here and get it done. It's very special. It's amazing to finish out at home on a note like this.

Before the eighth grade, I probably went to seven or eight different schools.

I almost got kicked out of eighth grade for selling 'Playboy.'

My only foray into anything stock-market-related was in my eighth grade social studies class. I have steered clear ever since.
