ES: I remember Denny Bolen but not the rest of the family. I think his father was a big shot with some company. Denny took me to a Tigers game once with tickets his father gave him... box seats. We really felt like big stuff when the usher came to chase us out of the seats, and we flashed our tickets at him proving we belonged there. You soft sciences guys never will understand technology. You can't even click on a link correctly. So just for you (and any other technical Luddites out there) here's what hairy Renee said... " hi im renee and i think im cute but i am hairy.I have a son by a crackhead. I hope that my son dont turn out like that. I LOVE to instigate in peoples business and try to get them to hate each other . I can't keep anything to myself.I love chizmiz. I love to talk shit but i cant never back it up....I dont have anything to support my son.... just welfare. Well thats it for me... i need to go" I would have thought with all your book-learnin' you would gravitate towards more intelligent females. Poor thing is living on welfare. Don't you feel any obligation to provide some kind of support for your mistress and love child? |

OD: You were the one who missed R. Morris ... and I was the stupid one who should have tried to get to know her better. with all that said I want you to know that I lived with Denny for 1/2 year when I went to graduate school at MSU.... I would like to know what happened to him ... I did see him on and off between 65 and 70 as we worked at Van Horn's at Eastland - Those were also interesting times too.... wow! |

ES: No idea what happened to Denny. Haven't seen him since the Mapleridge days. But then there are lots of people I haven't seen since the Mapleridge days. |

OD: Mike Miles, Tommy Ridas, Dennis Elvidge, Bob Workman, Renee Morris (cough) Joey / Mike Dinofrio all card carrying members of OUR MAPLERIDGE MOB ... do you remember dennis Huard who might have lived directly behind you on Parkgrove? Oh...Denny Bolen, and Rosanne and Peggy and others! For years I would ride my bike from Eastwood and park it either at Miles or the Ridas backyard .... |

ES: I remember the name Dennis Huard, but I can't place a face to it. So I may have met him but probably didn't know hin very well. |

ES: Don't let OD kid you...RM, PG...AND RM were on his list in addition to SD...the guy was a terror in the eighth grade I tell ya. Thank God he moved to CA so there was some left for the rest of us. He plays the innocent..."What...who me?" routine...but there's another part of the story. |

ES: Well...once OD moved to CA he stopped drooling about SD at least. It was embarrassing until that point...I kept an extra towel in my car (pre '56 Ford) for those days when I gave him a ride to school and we drove past SD's house. |

ES/OD: Untrue! I never drooled as did OD...however, it was difficult to type with the desk jumping around every time Miss Johnson walked past. I don't remember what street SD lived on...but I did hear that OD almost got busted for stalking around her house...the word around the eighth grade was that maybe he was trying for a quick window peek but that was never proven. |

I only rode with GB once. When I got out of the car I noticed the driver’s seat was all wet. I guess he must have been really excited about finally getting his license. I didn’t want to risk being in the car if he had another seizure and caused an accident, so I decided walking to school was safer. |

I heard that OD really preferred riding his bicycle to Denby...somebody told him that was the cool thing to do...no wonder SD stiffed him...so to speak. Actually I'm surprised that OD might have had a small step ladder...He always carried a pogo stick around with him...no one could figure out why. |

That's right. Bicycle, pogo stick, anything I thought would help me avoid that spaced-out driver in the old Plymouth when he swerved up onto the sidewalks. |

OD: I remember Bill H (father of the sisters) trying to get a lic plate number of a plymouth.... It all makes sense now ... I wonder what he did over on Parkgrove with either sister???? Bill H was also talking about a maze/blue extra small helmet that he thought the driver of the plymouth was wearing.... Amazing revelations! |

ES: The great thing about GB's mini helmet is he doesn't have to take it off to play hockey or ride Tango. A regulation helmet fits right over it. |

ES: What puzzles me is why GB thinks he needs to wear a batting helmet when he is playing with his geezers T-Ball team. |

It's cuz some of those geezers can still throw smoke...there's a guy named Aurillio Rodriguez on one of the teams...he claims his nickname is Senor Smoke...he can really bring it! I caught him on an off-speed and took him downtown with the bases loaded last week. (Message edited by GoBlue on May 23, 2008) |

Senor Smoke??? The only smoke you old farts see is when you light up the corncobs filled with dried out Tango droppings. |

There was a bench clearing brawl last week with a bunch of Southern Cal M.F's...I was glad that I was wearing my distinctive, one-of-a-kind, recognizable helmet of THE University of Michigan...I nailed two of the suckers with extra infield balls. |

I was there and saw the whole thing. GB was right there in the middle of the brawl wearing his mini banana helmet. I was more fortunate. Nobody wanted to fight with me because I was wearing a MSU helmet. They just pointed at me and laughed. |

OD: You and GB are the mental midgets when it comes to quality education ... Leather helmets - Banana peel helmet design - looks like something out of FLash Gordon - I think that when Flash was on Mongo Thun leader of the clay people wore helmets similar to the Bananahead Viktor style that the uOFm uses today..... |

ES: I tried wearing a MSU helmet, and it just got me laughed at. I don’t know if it’s the football team influencing the students or the other way around, but it seems both start out strong but are unable to close the deal. That’s what SH said anyway. |
