OD: Don't give us that stuff about Alma and hi-tech...we heard you guys were using tin cans with string in between...after the pigeons died.
ES: You mean you were running your bookie business from the dorm switchboard? |

GB: Alma is about 50 miles north of Lansing. Used to pass through East Lansing on my way between there and home. I never drove alone though. Always had 4-5 big guys with me to protect against car jacking when we drove past MSU.
We went through the MSU campus once just to see what it was like. Can you say PORNO??? There was some guy doing a daylight grasser with a redhead right out where everyone could see her. Someone said her name was SH. Actually grasser isn't the right word. They had worn all the grass away by the time we got there.

GB: Remember that I was the one that challenged myself at SE from 66 - 70 and it was the Fed Govt that paid my tuition to WSU for urban Studies and Sandy was part of those evening classes.... I just didn't have the heart to tell you earlier.

Being a tartar and not a sparty I actually see some humor in that. Please post the link for the ring tone. |

ES: Belle Isle, of course...and there was a street in GP that ran down to the lake...don't remember the name of it...doubt if I could find it again...of course all of those areas have since been subdivided. We stayed away from the Chandler Park golf course parking lot...even then. SE59 lived on Newport...just south of Mack...heavily wooded and dark street.
