I got my PhD in History of Science from UW-Madison and am now teaching at Boston University. Toby works in the IT dept.

Comments: I just want to add a note about our class. We have a great class but I have found it often peculiar that nobody from our class has made it into the Football Hall of Fame even though many were all state selections, all coalfield conference honorees, North/South WV allstar selections and college lettermen if not stars. The class of 90 football team was the first winning season in a long run of losing seasons before they got their chance to play. This is despite poor play calling that ruined
the teams that came before them. They beat the number one ranked team twice in the same year (north marion and mt view). They even had a respectable showing
against Capital that was ranked in the USA Today as one of the top 25 football teams in the nation regardless of class. Who is responsible for making the selections into the Hall and how are they voted in? Many people are in the Hall that were not even the best player on their team or even a starter let alone one of the
greats of all time. I would like to rank a couple of notable players from our year and get the buzz out about them.
1. Odie Parker - oustanding tailback, played college football at Concord University. Resembled a mack truck and ran much like his kin who is already in the Hall of Fame (Bull Parker). Had to share a crowded backfield with C.Grose, N.Staples, P.Glenn, and S.Anderson but made the most of his yards and was extremely productive in short yardage situations.
2. Shawn Anderson - outstanding quarterback, played college football at Concord University. he was a dual threat much like patrick white of WVU to run or throw. Had a cannon arm and was extremely accurate; it was rumored he threw 65 yards downfield while resting on one knee. This was years before the state of Texas discovered Vince Young.
3. Duane Reid - outstanding end and safety, played college football at Winston Salem State University. A tight end with the nasty disposition of a liebacker. Loved to hit and made the big catches. big time players make big time plays in big games. NUFF SAID.
4. Magic Staples - Let me say All purpose. Never came out of the game; he was the deep man on KR, PR, a defensive back, outstanding tailback, played college football and track at West Virginia State University. He was the Reggie Bush of the flying eagles. versatile, agile and quick.
5. Mike walton - AKA QUIET STORM, a true gentile giant, except on the field of play. Got unusual pleasure from punishing would be blockers and runners. After a big play you wouldnt hear him hoop or hollar he would bear just the most remarkable sneer on his face. Invaluable run stopper and blocker.
6. David Booge Reed - Heart and soul of the team. I think he broke the same kneecap 15 times in the 90 season but continued to play despite doctors orders. I can hear fred persinger on the radio now, "David Reed lays a wicked hit on the Princeton runner... but David's leg amazingly has broken off! yes they are attaching it.. he is getting up .. he is going back into the huddle, simply amazing will and desire ladies and gentlemen."
This team could have gone and won the state chamionship if it had not been for running the wrong offensive scheme with their players. This is the history of Beckley Football and the reason why every sport in woodrow has won a state championship within the last twenty years besides the football team (including golf, girls tennis and crosscountry). YOU DONT RUN POWER I FOOTBALL WHEN YOU HAVE THE FASTEST BACKFIELD AND RECIEVERS IN THE STATE. This is the same reason that we couldnt win it with Bull Parker, J. Odell, Domby, G. Robinson, Culicerto, S. Gaither, T. Nichols, A. Gray, T. Moore (who played against Randy Moss) and Scooter Steeleman to name a few. SPEED KILLS and you spread it out. Anyway, feel free to add to this list if there are more names from 90 that deserve to be in the Beckley football Hall of fame.

Comments: Hope everyone is good. I am not one for doing this type of thing, but I figured since Woodrow won another
State Championship Congratulations are in order. Whoever is writing these entries ranking me as one of the better players at
Woodrow I appreciate it. Truthfully I never thought of myself in that high regard. I thought I played with great players
(Tink, Chris, Glenn, BK) and I just happen to fit in. I really want to congratulate 4 great coaches and even better
people on what they have achieved in such a short period of time. Bolen and Barksdale on what they have done up there,
and Ron and Stevie Kidd for keeping Woodrow the states top basketball program. Ron our prayers are with you and if anyone
can handle a tough situation like this it is you. Keep it up...

today when I was looking for information about something else. I didn't even
know this existed. After graduation, I attended and graduated from Marshall
University. I earned a BA in Psychology in 1995, a Master's in School Psychology
in 1997 and an Educational Specialist's degree School Psychology in 1998. I
moved to Danville, Virginia in 1997. I am currently employed by Pittsylvania
County Schools as a School Psychologist. I have worked with this school system
since January, 1998
I was married for a very short time in 1995. We separted after about a year of
marriage and finally got divorced in December, 1996. I had one daughter, Haley
Corinne Moore who was born September 27, 1995 during my first marriage. She is
currently at sixth grader at the middle school I work at. In 2001, I married
John Snyder from Fort Myers, Florida. He's a Minister with the United Methodist
Church. We have two children, Bennett Scott Snyder born April 15, 2003 and James
Mitchell Snyder born June 22, 2004. I don't go to Beckley very often. My parents
come to visit us mainly because we can't get away on weekends because of church.
I have thought about some of you a whole bunch over the years and I wondered how
you were doing, where you ended up, and what you were up to. It's great to be
able to hear from folks and know that they are all alive and well.

Comments: Just a quick pre-election update on recent efforts (with thanks to those from the class who've e-mailed with words of support and encouragement):
1. The Associated Press ran an item last week, indicating that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has "requested" that Halliburton agree to extend the
deadline for the corruption investigation. The article notes that the timing of the SEC's "request" coincides with the timing of my SEC filings on the subject:
here
2. Several mainstream media outlets are hound-dogging the story, and I expect additional coverage besides what has already run around the globe in the past several weeks:
here
3. If either house flips, I expect subpoenas will issue pretty quickly.
Hope this finds everyone well.
Vote early, vote often!

Comments: Howdy!
I just stumbled on this site and think it's the greatest thing since sliced bread! It's awesome to see what everyone is doing and how successful everyone is. Doctors,
nurses, art therpists, engineers, pharmacists, teachers, social workers, cosmetologists, band directors, attorneys,
soldiers, corporate activists -- I always knew we were smart stuff, and this proves it!
Here's some scoop from the House of Bonecutter (Yes, that's my real last name. And I always thought Scaggs was bad....)
Just like Jennifer Jarrett Quinn, I also married my Ohio University sweetheart, Dustin Bonecutter, and we've been in Charlotte for 12 years.
I've worked in PR/advertising/marketing for several industries -- hospitality, publishing (love it) and banking (don't love it, as it involves numbers).
Dustin was an arborist for years, but when our daughter Lydia Jane was born in 2003, he came to the realization that trees weren't his passion. So, he quit his job, stayed
with Lydia during the day and went to grad school at night. He graduated in June of this year and got a great job
at Ingersoll Rand in Davidson, NC, doing organizational development stuff. I don't really understand it, but it makes him happy, so I'm all for it.
Now that Dustin has a paying job with benefits, I quit my job as marketing manager at Bank of America last month to open Maggie
Bonecutter Marketing Communications (a teeny, tiny consulting firm) and spend more time with Lydia.
Drop me a line sometime!

Comments: 1. Jack Deskins: did you get any responses on setting up a scholarship
in the class's name? Drop me a line, and give Heather a hug and hello.
2. Cindy Kiblinger: mesothelioma cases and Halliburton go hand in hand. Look up Dresser Industries, which
Halliburton bought while Dick Cheney was CEO. Dresser's longest-serving Director was Prescott Bush, our moronic
President's grandfather. (Oops. Did I say "moronic" out loud?) Dresser was one of the biggest asbestos scofflaws,
and Cheney bought Dresser to intentionally take on the liability, to prevent embarrassment to the Bush Family. The
asbestos trust fund (which I'm sure your firm must be dealing with) was a Halliburton/KBR creation. The Project
on Government Oversight has some good files on that (and so do the House Dems, waiting for oversight hearings
beginning in 2007, after the new Congress is sworn in). Drop me a line. As for my legal troubles, I'm due
up in Boston for a status hearing on the trespass charge in October. I'll keep you posted on where to send
the cake with a nail file baked into it. ; )
3. David Martin: how the hell are you? I, too, would be interested in connecting with Kay (Ed Kennedy, too). Saw
Kinraide this January, when she blew through town and stayed with Patrick and me for a few days. She finally finished
her doctorate. Patrick and I just celebrated 12 years. Congratulations to your wife and you. Does she do any work with
peripheral neuropathy? I have a friend in Boston who is experiencing some strange neuro symptoms (a sister has MS),
and would appreciate any referrals your wife might offer for good docs there.
4. Lori Aveni: Definitely drop me a line. evil grin
5. Chris Buckland: for those who don't know, Chris is serving in Iraq, with 19 soldiers reporting
to him. I received a really nice e-mail from him earlier this week. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
6. Updates from the homefront: Patrick has filed a number of SEC filings last week and this, relating to State Street:

David Smith's posts were interesting... when I moved to Boston back in 1997, Dave, I was stunned to find your image on the cover of a Bay Windows weekly.
I'm still in the Boston area, probably will be for several more years while my wife works her way slowly toward a Ph.D. in neuroscience.
We haven't expanded our family at all... Catherine will be five years old at the month's end, start Kindergarten a week later. She's anxious and excited.
Should anyone have any run-ins with Khaleda Ullah (I guess it's Nayem now), let her know I tried emailing her, without response. Send her here to email me.

Comments: For those who'd like to see my mug shot, it's now posted online.
I was arrested for "criminal trespass" at the State Street Corporation Annual Stockholders' Meeting this past week.
The Boston Police - Boston's Bravest - couldn't have been nicer, and the judge was also great.
My court date will be sometime in May or June.
The mug shot (along with the mug shot for parking - yes, parking - my uninsured vehicle on a public street in 1998) is available at:
www.UnsafeAtAnyFee.org
The questions that got the Chairman and CEO of State Street so riled up at me are also posted there.

Comments: In the vein of "truth really is stranger than fiction," I was working for Halliburton in its Kellogg, Brown & Root division when 9/11 happened.
Patrick and I lived 1.24 miles from the Pentagon. Halliburton's KBR offices were located at 1550 Wilson Blvd. in Arlington, VA, and was about 1 mile from the Pentagon.
I worked in those offices - in the Government Proposals Group - from 8/2001 (just before the attacks of September 11th) to 5/2003 (just after we started the War in Iraq).
My very common name was shared by about 6 other guys, but we all differed by our middle initial. Mine is A.
David R. Smith is Vice President for Tax at Halliburton. He was previously VP of Tax for Dresser Industries, which HAL acquired under Cheney:

http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=david+r.+smith+halliburton+tax&ei=UTF-8&fr=sfp&x=wrt
So, imagine my surprise when I returned one day to my desk - after a three-hour meeting with my group - to discover that I had a bunch of e-mails in my Inbox.
Those e-mails revealed that the company had just received informal information requests from the DOJ, FBI, and SEC regarding allegations that Halliburton had bribed Nigerian officials to build a Liquefied Natural Gas plant there. The e-mails that were sent to me by mistake detailed the spin doctor strategy that Halliburton intended to use to throw everyone off the scent.
There's a lot more to the story, but let's just say that - with a degree in Government, a Robert C. Byrd Scholarship, a UMWA Scholarship, and a Vecellio Scholarship - and with West Virginia coal miners in danger of losing jobs to LNG, I "did the right thing," and have been spending a lot of time on Capitol Hill these days.
I hope everyone back home is having a good holiday. Thanks to all the great teachers in Raleigh County. A special thanks to those teachers and folks from 105 Adair who took time from their summers to create Camp SAGA.
Give me a holler or shoot me an e-mail!
