In the spring of 1955 as a sophomore at Central Catholic HS in Toledo, OH, I was a candidate for Junior Boys Representative to Student Senate. The election was to be made by the Sophomore Class Officers and Class Council. Along with others I had to make a three minute presentation. I must have been persuasive because I won the election.
However, to this day I don't know what I said. I froze. I panicked. I choked. I vowed never to let that happen again. And I didn't. There began a 60 year quest...and over a thousand presentations...that became ThePowerOrator.
This blog is my story...my legacy to all those who have suffered the same fate.
