Beetty here's the letter i pulled out of my now rank sent-box. Into it, it's susposed to read School of VISUAL Arts and SCCC stands for none other than Suffolk County County College.  Im so glad too, to hear that your like me undegreeed and proud of it, well than, ill speak for myself, degrees are only necessary in science and techno all the rest is puffery. When I first attended SCCC, im just recalling, though never forgot, a political science teacher who was tops, i was dumb but he was so unpolitically correct before that concept became overused.  He was great. When he was in his office, smoking,one day, i asked him for a cigerette and he let me smoke with him, in his office, all thats changed. I think i learned the term bouncing the rubble from him.  Last year this time I signed up for an accounting course at SCCC, but i signed up late and missed when he explained some basic concepts in non-accountingleglese and was in a stupor when he went on with
 these concepts in rapid fire in conjunction w/the black board. Anyway I went on to flag the tests but kept on with it anyhow reading the text and coming to my own understanding , attending classes right up to the end but attending to the necessary maneuvers to get a W. rather than a F. so as not to spoil my otherwise pristine (?) transcript.  I have absolutly no desire to get a degree.
