I want to thank all the nice people who have sent me emails and helped kick-start some of the memories. I have had a great time relating the stories of my life up to high school and it doesn't stop there. Many more experiences are knocking on my cranium and won't shut up until I drag them into the light of day.
A note about some of the brothers I knew back then and try to stay in touch with now:
Pete Bantz: Currently a chef at Pete's Saloon in Elmsford, NY
Boots Shelton: Cameraman, Father, Producer
Jim Lange: West Virginia Public Radio Host
Andrew A. Blythe: Whereabouts Unknown. Somewhere in Wichita?
I hope to see a lot of familiar faces (though we are all just a bit...thicker than we used to be) when I go to the 2010 Reunion. My 35th year away and still the memories are so clear. May the blessings of the Buddha be with you all.

That's just a great slideshow. Fuck. Nearly made me tear up.
Where's Andy?
All is lost, but all is not lost. All things are transitory. What I could say to those lads then.
Besides, "You want to jam?"
Aint no rules, aint no vow, we can do it anyhow:
Ini will see you through,
cos everyday we pay the price with a little sacrifice,
Jammin till the jam is through.
Were jammin -
To think that jammin was a thing of the past;
Were jammin,
And I hope this jam is gonna last.
