My funny Wildeman story...
I was a freshman, second semester, and being honest on my exercise reports for PE II ("I didn't work out this week." "I exercised for 10 minutes this week.") earned me a failing grade at midterm time. (I guarantee that many of my classmates lied on their workout reports and earned passing grades. Grr.)
In any case, I had to drop the class, and Wildeman, being one of my advisors, had to sign my drop/add slip. I came to him at the beginning of my Speech (Rhetoric) Class, wh. met in Sanderson 215, though there were only about 10 of us.
I gave my request, and he blurted in his loud manner, "What kind of idiot does it take to fail a 1-credit-hour PE class?"
Being a freshman and not knowing his particular wit, I reared up my head, rolled my neck beautifully, and retorted:
"Apparently, my kind of idiot, sir."
(I especially like the 'sir' at the end. Heh, heh. It's funny now, because he's Wildeman and would do anything for you. He just comes off gruff at first.)
