Gen64 had a medical emergency. That's why wasn't there and way we
couldn't get in touch with him.

Tallgirl brought her beautiful Mustang and the guys were drooling. Frisky has
a mint condition Yugo. All the girls were crazy about it.

Best of all Mom showed up!

Gen64.... I was about to ground you for 2 weeks for not showing up, but then I heard you had an emergency... so you're forgiven. Love, Mom

Had a good time, new faces, good conversation... and then Frisky took me for a spin in his new bright yellow Corvette! It was groovy man!!!

Missed you guys (especially the Corvette). I have had another bout with the old Kidney Stones. Think I'll have you a necklace made Mom.

You know why we women think God gave you guys kidney stones? So you would know what childbirth feels like to us!!!!!

We did miss you! Everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) was asking where you were!! And........geez, I think I'll pass (no pun intended) on the "stone" necklace.... don't think it will match any of my outfits! Hope you're feeling better.

about Mrs. Scroggins? can you name the shoe store between TG&Y and Jim's
IGA...

I remember the house on the corner. We lived just south of it.

Mrs. Scroggins doesn't ring a bell but we probably saw her since that was
our TG&Y store. Was the shoe store Red Goose?

Four or more, that was quite a Supermarket in it's day. His brother Foy actually started the store and Jim later on bought it from him...My dad was a produce OTR driver and he would bring back extra cases of All kinds of fruit and my dad would trade Jim (and Foy) the extra fruit for other food products or gift certificates......

I haven't been around lately, I've been sick, but reading these posts, I had forgotten about Jim's IGA. I grew up on S.W. 37th between May and Independence, Woodson Park etc. I remember when it was a golf course. When I was in junior high, I had a girl friend that lived east of May and south of 44th. We would meet at the drug store in the shopping center (can't remember it's name). Used to walk through Rorland's farm to get there, went to grade, junior high and high school with Linda. I had a crush on a Teri, that I went to junior high and high school with, I wonder if TERIOKC is the same girl. LOL!!! Has anyone ever wonder what happened to the girls (for the females, the boys) that you liked in school. I married my high school sweet heart that I met when I was a junior. I worked on the northside, she went to Northwest and I went to Capitol Hill. We were married for 26 years, before her passing, had 3 kids and I'm soon to be a first time grand parent. I used to go to the movies at the theatre in the Airline Shopping center. My mother worked at the Humpty's there. Anyway, I enjoy reading these posts. I haven't been on the southside for quite a while now. Maybe someday I'll get back over there.

I remember seeing the kids (mine included) would gather up their cold clothes and slide down the hills of the Interstate when there would be a small Snowstorm....When we were kids (50's & 60's) we had home made sleds, some had mfg. sleds...We used car hoods (that was fun) even tried riding our bicycles in the snow....However, we didn't have cell phones, video games and the rest of today's mind teasers....We actually sat down and read a book sometimes....Television was sparse to say the least but we enjoyed this time of year so much.
Do the kids of today go Crawdad fishin'??? how about sleeping outside in the Spring time and in the Summer?....Just in the Back yard....not talking about the open fields (that are now housing developments).....do the kids ever pick Sand Plums in the wild or do they know about them?....Anybody out there ever actually play "Kick the Can"?....Oh well, the Southsiders did and boy did we have fun......I'm sure Pennyquilts and her group were guilty of some of these things though.....

I doubt there are many kids nowadays that know what a crawdad is. There use to be a couple of crawdad ponds on the west side of May around 63rd (near where Prunepicker lived). We used strings tied onto bacon. They seemed to like that. I was wading one of those ponds bare footed once when I nearly cut off a pinky toe stepping on something. And yes, we used to sleep outside occasionally during the summer. Used to have a great time.

For me those were truely the good ole days.

Including memories of Al 'N Dubs, Hollie's, The Spot, Reding and many, many more. How about the watermelon stand on the SE corner of 44th & Western (before Arlan's)? Served ice cold on wooden picnic tables, no utensils - they washed ya' down with a water hose when you were through. And also, a tiny diner on SW 29th (maybe 3300 block?) that served a shrimp basket for 50 cents? It was the biggest butterfly shrimp ever prepared in the same deep fryer as the shoestring potatoes by a lady named Queenie who cooked, served and I think owned the place.

Also had one on 66th and Santa Fe across from Webster. Wasn't there a Burger Chef restaurant on 59th just east of Southwestern Plaza? It's where Sherri's Diner is now I think.

Including memories of Al 'N Dubs, Hollie's, The Spot, Reding and many, many more. How about the watermelon stand on the SE corner of 44th & Western (before Arlan's)? Served ice cold on wooden picnic tables, no utensils - they washed ya' down with a water hose when you were through. And also, a tiny diner on SW 29th (maybe 3300 block?) that served a shrimp basket for 50 cents? It was the biggest butterfly shrimp ever prepared in the same deep fryer as the shoestring potatoes by a lady named Queenie who cooked, served and I think owned the place.

Good to see you on 2b. Reading gen64 post reminded me that I didn't tell you that we meet at Coit's once a month. Although I've missed the last two I intend to make this one.

I remember the watermelon stand on 44th and Western, Steve Hunt's dad owned it. We (myself and about 12 other guys) had a racetrack behind it where we raced our motorcycles. Also had one on 66th and Santa Fe across from Webster. Wasn't there a Burger Chef restaurant on 59th just east of Southwestern Plaza? It's where Sherri's Diner is now I think. Wish I had a dollar for every time I cruised between McDonald's on 59th and Penn, and Kip's on 59th and Western....I could retire! LOL

Hey Crash24OU, glad to see you on here!! You other guys be nice to him, he is a SE Spartan that me and "bowtieguy" recruited to get on this forum and hopefully come to Coit's on Saturday!

Instead of placing this on the school pages I felt it best to place here.

Santa Shot...By Jesus
A Nipomo, CA family is catching some flack for their Christmas display. Jesus, holding a shotgun, over a downed Santa.

"It's an expression of my repressed creativity," says Ron Lake.

"Christmas is not about Santa, its about Jesus, not the Jesus as the killer with the shotgun, but come on there's a little humor here, a little tragedy here," says Lake.

The display is up during the day and down at night. Unfortunately no pics.
