I can't believe you didn't bust the GP! Did you really know? I'll never forget those green footprints... My sister Mandy says you came into their body shop awhile back. I didn't even know you were around here - stay online!!!! I remember one football game when I was a freshman, and Tracy Flynn (pep squad mascot) smiled at me. Because of that, I voted for her for VQ. She won. Taught me a lesson. Smile at everyone - you never know who you might touch...

Message: Well back in Hawaii. Rains in morning and sunny for the rest of the day. got pretty good tickets to the Pro Bowl on Sunday. Will be thinking of everyone while I soak up sun. I remember back in the summer between my freshman and sophmore year I got in a motorcycle accident. I was over at Vicki Kellers house in holy Glen and was coming out of the driveway when one of my friends (Marty Warner) hit me. There were no skid marks before impact and the cops measured the skid marks after he hit me and figured he was going around 40mph. It was that summer that Coach Minami was taking the baseball team to Hawaii to play a couple of schools over here. I wanted to go so bad. The doctors said no because I broke my leg. Well being the doctor I was i set my leg myself. When the guy came in to take me to get my cast i told i was OK and starting walking. Not to good though. The doctor saw me and looked at my doctoring job. He was really mad. He had to reset my leg. He explained to me what he had to do and on three he would re-break it. Well on two he bent my leg and rebroke my leg. I can remember that pain like yesterday. I also remember Sean Carroll being the first one I saw when I woke up. I also remember Jodi Swain, Sherry Blackwell, kathy Lynch, Tami Perius visiting. Jodi especially long. Remember Norman the equipment manager, he took all the food someone brought me. Love the memories.

Wow, Denny's BBQ - do I remember that place - the best BBQ in town. I used to ride my bike about 4 miles each way to pick-up our Sunday supper from there. I think I remember that Denny had worked for a wholesale meat company delivering to grocery stores before he opened the BBQ place - it must have opened around the years 1955 or ?56.

And yes, I remember Driver's Training. I will always remember getting a flat tire, I don't think you were there that day.The instructor (don't remember his name) looked at me and I said 'The boys better start fixing that..." The instructor turned to me and said "why shouldn't you fix it? What will you do if this happens to you and you are alone?" Ok, I was young. It was a hot day. I said "I would find a phone, call my dad and he would fix it." The instructor said "good answer", made the boys fix the tire and took me to the liquor store and bought me a popsicle.

I am V-3. John and Ray, you must understand that "mensito" is an affectionate term for "little stupid one". I don't know you Ray, but I continue to mother V-5 and V-6. I am sure that we will meet one day the way that Cougartown is bonding its members. Now you have a guardian---smart move. You have moved from "mensito" to "listo". John, if you are going to get in the groove of the Hispanic V-girls, you must meet the V-Mom who is alive and probably more energetic than most alumni even though she is 82 years old. We were the only Hispanic family at Eucalyptus Elementary School for many years. I, personally look forward to meeting you one day. Ricki appears to already have made your acquaintance. This is not a surprise since she is V-1. Do you know Leo Valencia (V-2) or Carlos Valencia (V-4)? We actually regailed the halls of HHS for 14 years. None of us were the famed GP. The Bierman's were always closely intermingled. It is somewhat Twilight zonish to relive the days of Hawthorne High. I would like to hear how Mr. Molitor is doing as well as Miss Imes and Michael Gold.
Note: V3, Yes I'm looking forward to meeting all the "V girls" and the Biermans too. I've already received email from Mom Bierman. Let's get Mom "V" online too. Heck, my Mom's taking computer lessons and will be online within a month. Look out for her boy. :o)

Back in March (after I freeze) and will maintain the same phone number 888-231-2272 or my home 888-963-RACE if anyone cares to find out the weather in Arlington, VT (new digs). Have an extra room if anyone cares to drop by on Historic Route 7A and see my neighbors the Rockwell's of Norman Rockwell days. Cool folks with the originals on their walls. This is a big change and I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone in light that I know no one there. Help, and remember the words, "reach out and touch someone" ME -- I could use the hi's from any HHS'ers, including Gary Nelson, Big John #2, Joyce, Rhonda and Rosie, Goldie, and of course Lynn Brooks, Paul Mackie and the cool people from Cougarland. See ya in the spring and Joyce and I are still going to put on the Spring Fling in Mid-May. We are working on it, the new location (Orange County'ish) and perhaps Gary Nelson could suggest a nifty location for gettin it on with KRLA, great BBQ and street rods galore. Till I here from you, be true to your school. Miss ya!
Note: Dicky, I've tried calling you and as far as getting the Spring Fling on KRLA.......It's talk radio now. Good luck in VT and tell the Rockwell's John says hey. :o)
