Message: JOhn, 133rd street BRAT. Really, I can't believe you posted that. You did and you are sorry. Okay now does anyone remember the first FM station you could tune into. It was in about 1964. Best rock and roll ever. none of that top 10 crap, it saved my life. I was KRLA fan, KFWB just didn't get it, but that was AM. The FM station I'm talking about came out of a Church basement. Some of you hipsters must know, don't let me down. Thanks for all the fun posts Mr. Jenson you seem to know alot of TV. I remember when soap operas were 15 minutes, then 1/2 hr. Now and hour. My Grandma Currie would fall asleep watching them, she would wake up really confused, she thought it was one long show. she was so cute. I would walk over to the little store on 120th by Oxford Ave. and buy us a little boonesfarm. Just to relax. That store is still there. Lisa and I took a little tour of places we partied at. One on Lemoli and 116th, we were advised by a police officer, that it was not a safe place for white middle aged women to go. Lots of swat action. I could understand the white, but middle aged? What's with that.
Kell, he didn't want to say "Old White Broads". Now you KNOW I'm just kidding huh. Be a Coug girl, and I want to see you 133rd streeters on Prom Night in a Formal. YEAH RIGHT!!!!

Message: Hey Cougs, Thanks so much for the response to my response for help. To explain further-I bought a 1966 Cadillac Convertible Seville. Yeah baby!
Maaan I have been looking for a Nice 66 for over a year. My dad had one when he was alive (remember the Fire Engine Red One Elizabeth (Estrada) We used to ride around in the dirt lot now occupied by Hughes Aircraft on El Segundo & Supulveda.
We would listen to Roger Miller "You can't roller skate in a buffalo heard" SCREAMING as my Dad did donuts. He would walk around and pick the strawberries and we would watch the Cox powered planes flying around, and ride mini bikes. Those were the days my friends. Things appeared to be simpler. No running around-jumping on airplanes-too busy for anyone.
Bar B Ques with the neighbors-we spent time with them then. The Estrada's, McLaughlins, Currie's, Krikac's, McKay's, picking avocado's in the Estrada's back yard. Coors talls-good Mexican Food, Mexican Music-loud!, and Big Leo Singing....
It seems we celebrated life more, you knew when the neighbors left for vacation and when they came back....
Cops only scared us, because they knew we were ok, and our parents whooped us if we got out of line. No problem there.
Yeah, gimmie that 66, a warm summer day, and Roger Miller, The Beach Boys, James Taylor, Boz Scaggs, Carol King, and, maybe a little Mexican selection....
Take Care All-Thank God for your health, and your families.
Couldn't have said it any better Dave. Thanks for the memories and I guess you were another 133rd St brat. But a 1966 Cadillac Convertible Seville?? Are you sure?

Message: On the questionnaire there's been some confusion on "Food Stations". These are stations similar to an "all you can eat" salad bar, only one station will have pasta and another will have chicken, etc. This is included in the price. In fact the only thing not included in the price is the Prom pictures and the alcohol. If you have any questions please email me or Judy (judywudy@att.net) and we'll try to get you an answer. Right now at 5:46pm Lomita time, I have over 125 favorable responses to Prom night. That means at an average of 2 tickets per response, half the seats would be gone if we were selling tickets today. I'm sure we'll sell this out early as there are about 500 tickets that will go on sale next week. 500 is the capacity of the room so I am urging you to Get Your Tickets Early and if you know people without Internet access that want to be there, please let them know this week so they won't be left out next week.
Thanks Cougs for being out there and for supporting the website. I think you'll be very happy with Prom Night 2001.

Message: Well John we did have a stage back THEN. We had the SUNSET STAGE bus lines. We also had street cars. Do you old timers remember the G.A.A.?(girls athletic association for you young'uns). I was not a very good athlete but I had a great time anyway. Do you remember the Sportmanship Trophy that was given to the school that showed the best sportsmanship attitude at the football games? We won it a couple times while I was in school. Now no one cares about such things. You could not leave the stands until both schools alma maters were finished. No smoking allowed. It was in the "student section only". If an adult lit up we all got all over them and said put it out or leave. Oh the good ole days.

Message: John, regarding the Prom, is there any way to plug in the entire Alumni list & just say Prom Night 2001. If interested click onto Feedback sec. I would think we would want to make this event as big as we can? Many of these people might want to participate, but do not read or participate in Feedback? Also is April 13th for the next Cruise Night, set in stone? If so I want to start working on (Big Ray) from Baton Rouge to attend with me! I thought I might ship him my Mountain Bike so he can get over to AZ. I need to know the date for sure as he would need to start peddling his way over soon!! Big game weekend coming up! GO SOONERS!!!
Hey Tom, Yes, everyone will be notified by email tonight. Judy and Janny are handling the mass emailing. The Cruise Night will actually be Saturday the 14th, so make your plans for that one Cougs. It'll be at Fosters again from about 5 to 10. Would love to see Ray there. Thanks Tom

Message: Dave from the class of 76 who lives in Franklin, TN. I tried e-mailing you but it was undeliverable. So, if you want someone who could help you look at a car in Beavercreek and knows cars contact Mike Hinsch since he does owns alot of old cars and he may be of help. He's a 77 grad and listed in the Alumni section. As for older cougars, please write on in. I get a great kick hearing the old stories of HHS that I can't get enough of. If there was a book and history of Hawthorne and the folks who went to HHS I would buy it in a hurry. It just fascinates me of the fun we all had back then. Kind of like watching re-runs of the old black and whites which I still think to this day is still better acting than what we see now. Heck, I turned out ok after watching many episodes of the three stooges, combat, and the lil rascals(and I graduated from the 80's) which in today's standard would be considered violence T.V. (and I'm not writing from prison if you ask.) Anyway looking forward to seeing hearing some great stuff.

OK Judy, I'm signin' in right now. If you haven't filled out the NEW and last questionnaire, please do so now. If you know someone who isn't connected to the Internet, please let them know about the Prom and if they're interested, please add them too. We want to know if we have enough people interested in Prom night, now that we've nailed down the costs. If so, we'll start selling tickets next week. Thanks Janet and Judy for your diligence and we'll know by the end of the week if Prom Night's a go.

I agree, Where are the early HHSers hiding? Feedback doesn't hurt a bit. If you leave a story or an HHS anecdote, it stimulates other stories and anecdotes. So let's hear from you early HHSers. We need to know if there was a stagecoach running through Hawthorne in the old days.

I'll always remember him and Rick Asire at a party I had when my parents were out of town. The three of us threw it together at the last minute. Only about 12-15 guys & girls, but of all the parties I remember, that was one of the most fun!

Everyone rented those flocked wide lapel tuxs. Thanks anyway brother. I still have a white dinner jacket... and I am ready for the Prom... Oh brother, I don't remember but did you wear your dinner jacket to the Dick Thaxton show??? And how did you get to go? You were always playing with the band and didn't have time to dance.

And, I forgot to show up for school that day. What a great picture of the 1961 Banner Carriers! Oh yes, those wonderful Cougar games.
