To the best of my knowledge, the only school Alex requested us to send the release to was Iowa State. Carlton - he had a list of schools.

It's much different than high school. But the (Commodores) obviously know Alex is a tough-minded person. He's very confident in what he does.

What they in essence have done is give those schools permission to talk to them about potentially transferring.

Law enforcement officials have told us there is no reason to believe the school children were involved. They are both very young students.

I inherited the knowledge that sometimes (talents) not only skip a generation, but sometimes run screaming from it. Ironically, it was the singing non-ability that helped feed my love of laughter.

I fantasize about going back to high school with the knowledge I have now. I would shine. I would have a good time, I would have a girlfriend. I think that's where a lot of my pain comes from. I think I never had any teenage years to go back to.
