Subject: "Rock 'n Roll"



Hello, Sheila:

Regarding your question about your colleague's random expression,

"Rock 'n Roll!", I'd like to offer the following: I think what he is

indicating is a level of interest or excitement about whatever the

immediate topic of conversation is, or else a desire to get started with the

project at hand. He is telling everyone around that he is of a positive

attitude, and feels good about the topic which has precipitated his remark.

Rock 'n roll music is, by nature, a "letting go" of all inhibition, which

your classmate is also exhibiting. There's more, but it only serves to

underscore or amplify what I think I have already expressed.

Sincerely, Erick Byrd
