What possessed us I can not say, but a bunch of my friends were invited to go up to a college in Geneseo for Homecoming, where they had the music group The Village People and the Trammps as the opening group and we decided to take the girl up on the offer. The novelty was…

   A couple of months after the breakup with Dena, Jean called me on a Wed. morning and told me that Michelle, whom at one time was Jean’s mortal enemy (Ed. Note: see Sep. 27, 2011) but since became good friends, had gotten into a horrible car accident. Apparently while driving a ...

By now it must have been 3:00 in the morning and I really felt the need to talk to Dena. I couldn’t just knock on the door, so I tried the old rocks-at-the-window-technique. It got her attention, but also her parents. So I had to wait…   That gave me time to do nothing but…

    A week or so later a whole group of us were watching “Robin Hood: Men in Tights” at Paul’s house when once again Dena needed to be home. I asked Rich if he could give Dena a ride home and Dena kind of freaked out. It was bizarre and it was enough to make…

  Christmas & New Year's came around which brought stress to everyone. Jean announced that she wanted to see Billy Joel in concert and strongly hinted that someone should get her a ticket for Christmas. I think it was meant for her mom, but when Dena mentioned it, I ran with it. Jean was...

   As the summer slowly came to an end and the next semester of college started up, my parents started to pester me about the second Nova I had sitting in the Driveway gathering rust. I kept telling them I had plans to use it to restore my Red Nova. Of course, because I had…

Our reckless and irresponsible games of ‘Car Tag’ came to an end when Jay, Alan, and I were in Dan’s car and were playing against George, Jean and Sean in Mark’s Ford Bronco II. The rules were simple. Someone from your car needs to physically tag the other person’s v...

   During all this time, Rich, my friend from Penney’s loved cars. Chevrolets in particular. He always wanted to talk to me about my car. And every little incident with my car killed him inside. One day in the winter he found a white 1970 Chevy Nova for sale. He then informed me t...

   My first car accident occurred about a year after I bought by Chevy Nova. I was driving back from a Renaissance Faire with Dan, Jean and one or two other people that I can’t seem to recall. While heading south down Route 101 I was changing lanes from the left lane into the righ...

   Summer made way for Fall. I had finally found a job in retail at a J.C. Penney’s in the mall. Mark was actually working there and making a good commission in the Men’s Suits department. My only reservation was that Carrie worked there in the Portrait Studio. Alan went off...
