In His Own Words:
\n1948 – 1949 Teenage Thespian \u2013 Played the lead in two high school dramas.
\nIt was the Great Bard himself, Bill Shakespeare, who wrote, \u201cAll the world\u2019s a stage and all the men and women merely players\u201d (or something like that). On that basis, the rest of my life\u2019s experiences can be distilled into the handful of theatrical roles listed below.
\n1949 – 1955 College Nerd \u2013 In this role I collected two engineering degrees and a \u201cPe-et\u201d key. The latter is given each year to the top ten seniors at Oklahoma University. What a waste of time!
\n1955 \u2013 1957 Peacetime Warrior \u2013 I led a platoon of Armed Combat Engineers at a time when there was no combat. Our \u201cMilitary Exercises\u201d were pure comic theater.
\n1957 \u2013 1992 Oilfield Trash \u2013 Having literally grown up in the shadow of an oil derrick, I was natural in this role. I appeared as a roughneck, a roustabout, and a petroleum engineer in Oklahoma, Texas, Canada, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and Malaysia.
\n1992 \u2013 1999 Learned College Instructor \u2013 In spite of my having no degree in mathematics and no degree or training in education, an Alabama college cast me in the role of a college mathematics instructor. I played the part well enough that, in 1998, \u201cWho\u2019s Who Among America\u2019s Teachers\u201d ranked me in the top 3% of America\u2019s college instructors.
\n1999 \u2013 2004 Retired Geezer \u2013 I\u2019m not worth a damn in this role!\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-FullWidth.php","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/perryokalumni.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13275"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/perryokalumni.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/perryokalumni.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/perryokalumni.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/perryokalumni.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13275"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/perryokalumni.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13275\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25887,"href":"https:\/\/perryokalumni.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13275\/revisions\/25887"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/perryokalumni.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13275"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
