Alan Manis is a humorist from Marietta, Georgia and a graduate of Cobb County Public Schools, which means he gets a pretty good discount at all of the classy BBQ joints throughout the south. He was short, skinny, and near-sighted as a bat in high school. (He’s still that today except substitute the word “fat” for “skinny”).Alan was the guy in class who always said something funny. In the words of one classmate, “Everyone thought that he was funny-I thought he was sick”. He had several hard classes in high school and passed some of them. He was never on any athletic team. He was not in the band. He was not in any clubs. His picture usually only appeared in one spot in the annual. Yet, he still managed to marry a cheerleader.
