Have disturbingly wonderful children. Made a mess of my early life. God saved me. Became a distributor for construction products [folding walls, fire curtains]. Travelled to the usual places, also Iceland, and Alaska [caught a 63 lb king salmon, have the picture]. Lets see: was watching a movie called "Quiz Show." At the end it said that Charles Van Doren was living in Conn. I called him up and said I wanted to see if he still had it, asked him "What is the cruelest month?" He answered "April." Which was correct. He thanked me for asking him a question he knew the answer to.

Author: "America and Thou" [re: America in the Last Generation / est.1948]

Played trumpet, broke leg in soccer game -- approx. in that order. (Redeemed the soccer story in college.) Probably influenced mostly by Frank Ryerson [who had a number one song with "Blue Champgne"], Ernie Unger, and Emil Sanzari. Watched the Kennedy assassination unfold at home, in bed. Had checked out a book from the library about Presidential assassinations, at the same time. One of my daughters does strange things like that. Had a great time at the Reunion. Kenny did a terrific job.
