I was a shoe shine boy at Camp Meeting, business and pay was pretty good, The area was dusty, made for good business. Do you still get a shoe shine? Surely you do not wear tennis shoes all the time.

By far the Shoe Shine job was best in my youth! Cool

I wanted to go to the General Assembly in Indianapolis and take my shoe shine box. I loved popping that rag. Never was as good as the guys at the barber shop.

I wanted to get in on the BIG money, shining the officials shoes. My pastor (dad) shot it down. Dad did not understand the drive of the entrepreneur. Smile

Was this the GA Camp Meeting at Doraville? Seems like I vaguely remember someone doing this. I worked several times in the snow cone booth back then.

You could make a small fortune at our camp meeting in southern Il. by just selling ear plugs.

When he was a teen, my son Dayron had a large poster in his room. It featured a guy who was sitting in an arm chair which was facing a GIANT speaker.

The guy's rather long hair was blowing back like he was in a wind storm. The words on the poster said, "If it's too loud, you're too old." That's when I began to realize age was creeping up on me Smile

Doyle, to show how relevant and up with the times you are, you are supposed to strike through the "you're too old" part and write "it's too loud." Then it reads "If it's too loud, it's too loud." What makes you relevant is tacking on FIFY. (If I have to explain it, you're too old. Wink
