After seeing the Documentary today………… The veil was pulled back from a memory long ago obscured by hard living and weed smoke. Sometime in the spring of ’69, Steve got the first album. Whilst walking home from the bus, I spy with me little eye a strange car in front of my house. A guy… Continue reading A Pause for Led Zep

Losers sit down…. Well, it didn’t take long for a rich girl to have a little soiree at her house for a select group of wonderful folks in her social strata.

While most houses on the block are joined, hers stands alone. It’s a bit bigger than mine. I spy a small upstairs balcony. We walk in the bottom floor, a den and small powder room.

Latest news from the girls’ room After some brief kissing in the back, Allie has a news flash. “Some girls were smoking cigs in the second floor girls room.” I’m intrigued. I always thought boys would be the first despicable juvenile delinquents to smoke butts. “Who?” “Some local girls. One’s named Roxanne, the other’s Carolann.… Continue reading Well, that didn’t take long

It’s a new world………. On a kissing break, Allie says: “My aunt is taking me out to get some sexy boots tomorrow” So, how the hell do I , a mere seventh grader, respond to that? “Sounds good.” As usual, Veronica broke the ice. In sixth grade, girls either wore rubber snow boats or flat… Continue reading Boots
