GB: I just came from Eastwood and ES isn't there. You don't think he got lost do you?

OD: Don't worry...he'll show up...every once in awhile he falls off the wagon and goes on one of his binges...the last time we found him wandering around Haight-Ashbury in a tie-dyed t-shirt, ripped jeans and sandals flashing the peace sign at tourists...and asking every babe he saw if she was SH...he gets confused and thinks it's 1970 all over again.

GB: I just hope he hasn't gone into hiding with the nuns at St. Jude like 7K.

Boys: I just heard from the CSI sisters ... LA June 22 - 26. It will be tough of OD since he actually split for LA early on ... They will be voting on whether GB gets his award that was to be presented to him at the August TC MSU - Denby - Eastside Gathering that unfortunately was cancelled ... I think he should get it since it is still in my garage and I need to clean it out ... and I think that Fed EX does have trucks big enough to be used to ship it to him ... I think that the only way to his home is just a goat path ... GB I hope that they vote for you to be honored ... I have done what I can to support you but they are a little nervous because of your life in AArbor ... but since they also are true educators they do have some affection for all your work over the years ... Please do not send again that picture of you wearing that extra small bananahead leather helmet ... it looks scary....

OD: He's baaaaaack! I'd like to question his ancestry but I know that he comes from a long and esteemed line of Detroiters...each family has it's own black goat I guess.

CSI...SmmmeeSI. I'm grateful to the girls for identifying SJ...otherwise...I keep hoping that one of them isn't who I'm afraid she could be...ah, the sweet memory.

GB: Howie is not a CSI sister - believe me! The award will be granted 8/1 as scheduled so clean out part of the 5 car garage so that delivery can be made ... You can always e mail me with names of suspected CSI members and I will in confidence keep you posted.

GB: When will you be arriving in LA for the conference ???... Wearing something with Heilmann on it is a prereq..... it has to be an outer garment so your Heilmann thong cannot be used this year.

They want to talk to you alone - please explain????? ...

ES: You been back to work with Photoshop again? The only photo I know of HT is the one with SR in it...to tell the truth I never noticed that there was anyone besides her in it until recently.

Saturday A.M...OD must be out doing his MI suburban lawn trimming thing.

GB: I will let you explain HT to OD ... be truthful OD missed much of the HT era ... I wonder what SR would say today about knowing HT back in the day .... that would be an interesting conversation ... call her this week to get the details for the book.

ES: Naw, I don't have the heart to tell OD the full story about HT...but, I think HT is his next door neighbor.

I'll call SR in the morning...will let you know what she has to say.

GB: You won't tell OD? .... and call SR in the AM ???? Let's see ... I think you would find it easier to tell OD than call Ms Fox SR .... But SR would be thrilled to hear your deep voice once again .... she might want to visit the west

GB, ES: Who is HT? I always thought HT meant Hot Tootsie, ES’s pet name for SH.

OD: I will help GB explain this reoccurring theme concerning HT. You will need a '59 yearbook and then go directly to the Tars Cheer Leading Team and take a closer look at the team members ... I think that HT is standing next to SR .... have fun and GB will continue to fill you in....

GB: Email me the picture.

OD: The pic of the '59 Cheerleaders is in your email box as we speak...it includes a clear photo of ES's alter ego...and my summer of '58 romance.

OD: I remember walking home from Gratiot and 7 and going down Fordham.... There I was on Fordham between Celestine and Mccrary and that is where I first saw HT and GB standing very very close to each other... GB will now fill you in as to why HT was a cheerleader with SR and about the HT/GB bond .... I am a little confused about the 58 summer romance ... GB with who ?????

GB: Got the pic thanks. Although now that I see her, SR and you seems a little improbable.

ES: Remember 7&K said how safe he felt walking down Fordham to 7 Mile and Gratiot? Do you think maybe there was a threesome?

OD: Well...to tell the truth, I thought that SR was "slumming" when she approached me and asked me to dance in the spring of '58...after all...she was the queen of the cheerleaders...and I had lettered in golf...not exactly a first tier sport...although I was also a hockey player...but that was off campus...anyway...it was improbable...but...extremely delicious.

You know...I'm thinking that perhaps it WAS a threesome that transversed Fordham...ES, HT, and 7&K...ES had a pass that had been issued during the truce...he probably used it to get his "buddies" through the zone...likely they used the alleys.

GB: Possibly. ES was very familiar with the Detroit alley system. Every midnight he would take the garbage out and sneak down the alley to get a peek into the Ritz girl's window. His parents raised his allowance because he was so conscientious about the garbage.

GB: Was HT your roommate at WMU all 7 years you attended???? Some of the CSI sisters were cheerleaders too.... I will add the HT question to them for their LA conference. I will break the news to you via e mail if they refer to you as a link to HT..... SR was a fox so was she a one date miracle ??? Her actual boyfriend played for the Spartans ... ??? Are you sure you weren't in your car at Ballduck alone?????

ES: SR was not a one date occurrance...the first "date" after the dance was at Belle Isle...watching Scott Fountain...entertainment before the races.

Please tell me that one of CSI sisters did NOT have the original initials of SH...please...

ES: Don’t impugn my 706 comrade’s integrity. He’s not evil, just the product of a low-grade socioeconomic environment. If he had the advantages of growing up on Mapleridge instead of Fordham he might have turned out OK like we did.

OD; Notice that he (GB) skirted the dating question and the alone question about just sitting alone in the car at Ballduck....... As for the current CSI group none had maiden initials such as SH ..... whew! So you are safe for awhile ....

ES: If you ask GB he will tell you he dated every pretty skirt in Detroit. Do you think 7&K was right about GB exaggerating? NAW.
