Who amongst Denby gave the proper blessing for the Kosher wine? Without the blessings, no Goyim can possibly drink it proper.

Goblue, are you talking about Ripple, Gallo, and Thunderbird or Kosher wine with proper ritual use?
Apples and oranges.
Here we go again, East-West cultural divides.
Detroit City, just one, but of many parts.
Remember the ring on the church says, "Goyim, Goyim, Goyim.•••

J: I dated a Greek girl once...does that count? Ripple, Boone's Farm, Thunderbird...the cheapest was the best...actually, in those days I didn't drink much wine...Stroh's was the nectar of the Gods. |

For wine, there's a Brachah. For the Goyim, beer.
Eastside-Westside, cultural divide.

Oldedetoiter- Amazing but my counselor was Charles Shires in 1941-45 Could it be the same? I remember him telling me"Just wait till your 15 when I can kick you out of here" When I was Associate Dean at WSU School of Med I thought of trying to find him. |

Jjaba: What’s the proper blessing for a Best’s Kosher hotdog? Don’t want any curses on my picnic.
BR: Probably, unless he was already pretty old when you had him. I started with him in ’55 and his hair pretty was gray by then. His academic mission seemed to be to get you out of his office asap. |

Bill_rush, that's called "reverse psychology." He motivated the hell out of you. Everybody's got some kinda memories like that. Great post #28.
Olddetroiter, jjaba has said some special prayers for you, Gut essen.

Anyone remember Miss Cash who taught literature at Denby? If memory serves (and it hasn't always done so recently), she might be Sexy Grandma.

OD: I remember Miss Cash...but there wasn't anything sexy about her...she was just a little old lady. There was however, a real fox who taught typing in high heels named Marion Johnson...lots of erotic fifteen year old fantasies about her!
BillR: It has to be the same guy...there was a Charles Shires who was a counselor '55-'59. I had a similar experience with an asst. principal named Diekoff...he shook his finger in my face and told me that I'd never be anything but a bum...he didn't know how close he came to losing that finger. When I finished my doc in '72 I thought about going to look for the SOB to tell him that it was DR. Bum...but he had died. |

Goblue, reverse psychology. There were school personnel on the Westside like that too. They must have been trained in it on those in-service days when our parents had to arrange for babysitters. Plenty of kids around here went to college also.
Ofcourse, all of Cass Tech. went to college.
Well, almost all, unless your family owned a Chinese restaurant or a factory.

jjaba mentioned the Chinese restaurants because Chinatown kids went to Cass Tech. as a neighborhood downtown HS. Denby might not have known that. (Sociology of Cass Tech., 1950s.)
Vocational education and Cass Technical HS are two different emphasis. Wilbur Wright, Chadsey,
Murray HS, High School of Commerce, had more of a vocational orientation to them.
You do observe correctly that Printing Dept. students are always smelling of ink and the pressroom. That's why when you saw us in chemistry class, we were the ones with our sleeves rolled up and without a tie. You wear a tie while driving a printing press and your job will end up printed on your head. Now that makes a lousy impression.
jjaba dated a printers daughter; he made a lousy impression and she wasn't his type.

Who remembers the lifesaving courses at the Jackson pool? Every so often the 'victim' would get ahold of a student lifesaver and hold him underwater until he almost drowned. The rest of us got a big kick out of. He got me once, but I escaped and swam to the side of the pool underwater. When I surfaced he was looking all around. I think he thought I was somewhere at the bottom of the pool. One of the Boy Scout instructors was a really, really old guy. At least we thought he was old at the time. I'm probably older now than he was then. |

OD: ES disappears every once in awhile...he was last seen at Haight-Ashbury last week...long hair (actually a wig), mustache (pasted on), tie-died t-shirt, sandals, flashing the peace sign at tourists....he'll get in touch with reality again one of these days. |

ES used to sail in the SF Bay, but it brought back bad memories of his time in residence on a nearby island. |

Ya know...when I visited the place several years ago...I thought I saw a strange guy skulking around the shadows...you don't suppose? I know that ES claims to be a psychologist in SJ...but...ya gotta wonder. |

GB: Did you say "be a psychologist" or "needs a psychologist"? Maybe instead of "lost track of him" I should have said "forgot about him." I understand that SH forgot about him too after their first date and had to be 'refreshed' on every date. |

Old D and Father Wolverine: I think I will make the CSI investigative seminar in LA in June ... anything or anyone you want to know about just post it here with me.... The closest Father W (GB) ever got to the "H" sisters on Parkgrove was parking his white convert a Dennis E. house on Salter.
You two clowns look great in bright orange when you are working off your DUI's .... cleaning trash along major highways.

ES: When you get to LA hop on the San Bernadino Freeway and head for Claremont. There used to be a Mexican restaurant in the old High School Building at the corner of Foothill and Indian Hill. It was in the area that used to be the library. Thx. (In case you forgot, libraries are those big rooms where they keep books.) |

ES: Great. The old schoolhouse is where I finally graduated from high school after they booted me out of Denby and Pomona. I recently heard from an old classmate that they removed the front steps and moved a CityBank in on the bottom floor. She said the CityBank sign in front looks dreadful. Don't take any pictures for me. I don't think I want to see it. |

ES: Warning!••• When you’re in LA stay away from the beaches. Just came across a story in the LA Times about an addled old beach bimbo living under the Santa Monica pier …. freckles, gray hair with just a tinge of red. She spends the nights roaming the beach crying. “Take me ES, take me.” Very scary. Some days she wanders the mall pushing her shopping cart and babbling something about hot nights and a big hill. The cart has a little plaque on the side with the letters SH. Warning, stay away!•• |
