HELL YES! I WAS EMBARRASSED ~ I STILL REMEMBER IT LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY

By Harvey Tobkes

I was more than embarrassed…it all happened back when I was in second grade. I remember it clearly, all six grades were in the school auditorium singing “America The Beautiful,” when a teacher tapped me on the shoulder and in a stern voice said to me, “Harvey, do not sing.”

I guess I was a little out of tune that day.”
