Minnetonka Mini-School Archives

We the unwilling, led by the unqualified, have been doing the unbelievable for so long, with so little, we now attempt the impossible with nothing. - Mini-School Credo

Pat’s Back

March 1, 1998 by Mini Archives

By Carrie Tiggas

Some of you who graduated in ‘96 might know Pat McNutt. Well, he’s back in Mini-School. Here to influence a new generation of Mini students and get acquainted with some of our seniors who were here when he last was. I took it upon myself to interview our favorite super, super, super senior.

So how do you like being back in Mini-School?

Nutt- It’s all right.

Do you think it’s changed a lot?

Nutt- Yeah.

How so?

Nutt- There ain’t no Zeus, Lauie, or Patty. There are all the colors in the rainbow in all the new kids hair.

What have you been doing the last couple of years?

Nutt- Living on my own, working and consuming.

Are you sorry you didn’t graduate with your class?

Nutt- Yes because Rutledge is making more money than me.

So what do you plan on doing after you graduate?

Nutt- Working, moving around the state and livin’ in a truck.

What is one of your most memorable memories of Mini?

Nutt- When I was supposed to be Student of the Week and I was at McDonalds with Wegler so there wasn’t a student of the week that week.

In your old age you must have some wisdom, can you give some advice to our younger students?

Nutt- When you ditch out of a trip make sure to call Doug.

Do you have some experience you would like to share with us about the last question?

Nutt- Yeah, instead of going to Mark Warren trip. Last year I went to California to visit a friend and I didn’t call Doug.

So now that you know how some of us felt about that do you feel guilty?

Nutt- Sure, why not.

Well I think I’ve just about had enough of this kid, so Pat, any last words for our readers?

Nutt- Fly or die.

Well cheers to our super, super senior.
