Nidy, Lynn . . . If you are a snob or an imature girl, you won't stand a ghost of a chance with this individual. But, if you are a hamburger, a milkshake, a sports car, or a pigskin, you've got it made. Lynn's ambition is to teach girls physical education class . . "DAD GUM!!!!" is the expression most used by this future Navy man. Good luck!!
