For those of you who have emailed you couldn't find me, dont look in 64 El Molino Somehow I was left out (probably broke the camera or something)... Paco thanks for the Surf Pic. I quit Surfing myself about 3 Years ago after surfing since 1959 except for a few years around 81 when I got my back broke in an auto accident...Man it was getting painful...But I think I'm gonna start back up again...Yeh Woods sounds Familiar.

Message: Gary Thanks for the Heads up On Takayama. I've driven by that museum several times and have not stopped. where's his shop at?? I need a new Long board so I can Surf at Old Farts. (For those that dont know that's San onofre beach, south of San Clemente & Trestles).. Anyone wanna hang with some old surfers our age thats the place. I went through San Clemente a few weeks ago, there were more cherry 40 & 50 Woodys then I had ever seen in any one place. They must have had a show or something..First car I owned was a 50 ford, bought it for $50 back in 62, At the time it had a flathead V8. I couldn't drive it at the time and bought it to fix it up for when I could. I spent the next 2 1/2 yrs working on that car, with the Help of Dennis Robinson HHS64 & his brother Keith HHS62. Man these guys were whizzes with rebuilding cars. We took my old ford & dropped a 390 cu, bored out to 402, dropped in an Isky 505 roller. Fenton Heads & headers. With a set of Weber Tri Power Carbs. Put in a four speed tranny with a Hurst 4 on the floor spring loader & a 410 Possie rear end. We took it down to TJ and installed Baby Button & tuck Interior & painted it Candy Apple Burgandy with 10 coats of Lacquer. Man Did I love that car. Six months after I got my license, I got on it a Little too heavy comming around a corner off Shoup, hit a wet patch, lost control & wiped out about 50 ft of a cinder block wall & totaled That car... So much for that one.. The only other car I liked more than that was my "70" 426 Cuda. I will say something for those Robinson boys they used to buy some cars that looked Like Junks & would turn them into sleepers. Rode with them many a time, with them blowing off a lot of newer Vettes & GTO's etc.. Think I'm Gonna play hooky today & drive on over to Hawthorne to reminisce a little. We are the Mighty Cougars Scarlet & Gold..... Go Cougs

Message: RICK MCQUITTY !! Well, I appreciate all the kudos, but to be honest, that picture is 37 years old.. However, the ROWDYS GIRLS have managed to hold on to a little fun all these years and we're still the same "Thelma & Louise" kinda gals.. We now need a boost up to pee in the sinks (if we make it in time) & this time around we're all on hormones.. We all have that 1 course,black, pesky hair on our chin that won't go away..no matter how many times we pull it out.. we don't cook, or clean.. Oh sorry, Marsha Hood mowed her backyard last weekend.. she had to buy some coveralls & a tool belt to do it, and I happen to know she keeps her lipstick, nail file, and cell phone in the slots.. She got a pair of safety goggles too, but had the lense monogrammed with her name and a butterfly and she wore her new Nordstrom sun hat too. The redeeming factor is that we pick men that don't care.. and/or learned how to cook themselves.. and so... """"IT'S OK!!!!""""".. (Robin Hood doesn't cook, so he's very thin now) I'm worried about him.
See you AUGUST 18th .. PROM NITE.

It was great to hook up again with old friends (old as in a long time ago, not implying that WE'RE old in any way). I've also been chatting with Art Paton, c/o '67, lately. He's asked me to post a query: does anyone know anything about Dave Woodring, c/o 67? I noticed he's not listed anywhere in Cougartown, even the Missing List for his class. I would appreciate it if anyone could put me in touch with him. Also Lenny Fein...Art will be in the area in February, and I'd like to get some of his old buddies together for lunch. Thanks for any info.
Patti, I'm sure someone can help. Maybe Chris Prewitt, as he handles the class of 67 missing list.

Being a 70's person, I can attest to the fact that just about every student either knew these guys personally or knew 'of' them. After all these years, these two can still get to people the way they always did. As for the comments about the 60's Cougars being too old to party.... I've got news for you boys! If your coming to Prom Night you better start taking your vitamins and Viagra now 'cause I've seen those wild 60's woman party and I guarantee you that they aren't called 'wild' and 'rowdy' for nothing! Have a great Thanksgiving everyone. Love ya, JB!

I keep seeing it and I keep saying to myself, "what a beautiful woman you were back then. I hope this doesn't offend anyone. I mean it in the best context. As I read your witty posts, I can see that you are as beautiful on the inside as you were on the surface. I don't know much about the "ROWDYS", but I am intrigued, and I'm trying to read up on you women. It's things like this, that makes me want to be more of an "ambassador", to the other graduating classes. Thank you for your "mind" Judy. I like that most about you. A MCQUITTY

You could drop those down into 1st & they would jump shift and burn through all four gears.

Message: Hey John! I thought Scavengers were those people who come out late Thursday night after I take my trash to the curb. Just kidding! Oh yeah, Sonny's Muffler Shop. Do you remember Rose Mufflers? Sorry to hear about Cecil Hall's passing. I remember at least two locations for Leddy and Hall over the years. Did you know Paul Dunn of Carl Dunn & Son's Automotive? Paul worked for Leddy & Hall after his dad retired. Paul had a 51' Plymouth hot rod in the early 60's. It ran a modified 55 Plymouth V8. What was unique was the homemade floor shifter that Paul constructed for the manual transmission. It had a very short inline pattern and was made from a Model 'A' brake handle. The push button was for first and reverse gears. Paul gave me a first hand demonstration while drag racing. He would speed shift with out the clutch. I believe that I will never see anyone that can make a shift any faster than Paul could with that particular set-up. Does anyone know or remember a similar set-up?
Two locations was all there was for Leddy and Hall. Yes, I remember Carl Dunn too, and Les Rose. Les had the coolest 38 Chevy panel delivery. He retired about 15 years ago.
