Thirty-five years later, I guess it's a good place to finish. Christy Sprague was a teaching assistant in McGlamery's introductory weeds course and has the fortuitous honor of replacing him on the Extension staff. One of her favorite McGlamery antics occurred during finals week. McGlamery admits he uses pranks to get people's attention. I rely on humor in my presentations to keep the crowd alert.
Nothing goes in if the mind is closed.
Humor has never been far from McGlamery's mind since growing up in the small town of Mooreland, Okla., just a county away from the Panhandle. My name is spelled with only one 'L' because my mother knocked the L out of me when I was small. Like most twins, Marshal and Muriel were inseparable. Sports were a favorite activity and one at which Muriel excelled. McGlamery became a class clown to attract attention away from his sister.
