A Few Stray Remembrances |
Rezzy-Rats Vs. Day Hops |
One for the residents--night prayers and Salve Regina, so I am told. |
One for the Day Hops--yelling "Go! Go! Go!" as the afternoon bus approached the end of Oklahoma Avenue and the uniform-garbed girls of St. Mary's Academy
waiting patiently for a ride. |
"Who Knows!" from DeSales--Was that Bob Deahl, Terry Brown, Mark Mankowski and Bill Noskey? I just don't know anymore. Answer: Heart of Gold. |
Lynda Long, female interloper from Indiana--"Elle est petite," per Father Lukaszewicz. |
Buffalo Balls--Need one say more? |
SPAM--It's what's for lunch. |
Saints Versus Anchormen--You Decide. |
BVS, WOLB, CUFF. |
Neal Erickson's BVS and all the sordid details that went along with her. Wasn't she into witchcraft? |
Father Silvestri's aged brief case. According to one of the Penman's on this site, he had owned that case since 1954! |
Hinder Binders or wedgies, all courtesy of Wott Scuzniak |
Bob Bea's insensitive question to Richard Johnson about his sister's ballet lessons. Or baby, it's cold out there! |
Thaddeus, -a, -um |
The unprecendented return of Alan Wisniewski from Pulaski HS for his senior year at DeSales. Can I hear an amen out there?!? |
Das Dick ist Greun. |
Intramural Sports |
In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Santi |
Shakespeare on Vinyl with Father Matt. Or "Ode to a Grecian Urn" with garbage can on shoulder? |
Richie 'Packrat' - "Richie, tell us everything you know. We have a minute." |
Coach Tom Tornjock, or was that, Dornbach? |
Pat Long and Speech Class--Wasn't that fun!?! |
The archery range in the basement tunnel, or running indoors on bad weather days. Hey, that's Wisconsin. |
The Bookstore on the first day of class. Odd how that memory stays with one. |
Terry Brown's paper on the homosexual overtones of Iago in the "Merchant of Venice".
Vince gave him a 'B', so Terry quadrupled majored in philosophy, theology, German and psychology just to show Vince up. |
Father Dionne and his ice puck, tabletop wave tanks, and petri cloud chamber. |
Scott Wozniak and THE first LED display calculator on the face of the earth. And we were there! |
Free gum for all! Now I do feel like a lab rat. I wonder what was suppose to be in that stuff? Congrats to Doug Kowalski for getting the answer: The Answer |
"Colonel Konkol" and the Chapel Gestapo. You're almost in the chapel, so show some artificially induced reverence. Did you know that Konkol made it to ordination? |
Who's your Big Brother, baby? |
Scott Wozniak had a CB radio in his college dorm room. There! The truth is out! And everyone thought that is was God talking through the speaker on their TV. |
Everyone who bought a stereo from Mr. Maxim, raise your hand? Must have been a Panasonic too? |
Cross Country Season |
Senior retreat at The Redemptorist Retreat Center in Oconomowoc.
So who invited the girl? Doug doesn't remember her name, but he does remembers the title of her lecture: "What I look for in a Christian Man that I date".
And what was your record in tabletop hockey. Nice of Tim Ross to bring that along. Don't forget the black squirrels. |
Bob Bea and the push-button drive in his '64 Dodge Lancer. Didn't Rich Johnson once push them while Bob was driving down the road? |
Scott Wozniak's cars. Nice of Scott's brother to let him drive his muscle cars. There was a Grand Prix and a Firebird with the rubber bumper, if I remember correctly.
Now what was the speed limit on Oklahoma Avenue? |
Tim Neal's "The White Rabbit", Sternig's Cougar and Tilt's '64 Chevy Impala--all classics. |
Neal Erickson's employment at the drug store at Clement and Oklahoma. Doug says that the name was Medi-Care Pharmacy.
How many condoms was it that he "borrowed?" Such the optimist. |
Pizza after the basketball games during our senior year |
EAMUS! |
The First Earth Day in 1970, courtesy of Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson. |
Getting the Chicago Tribune to read for Father Hickey's American Government Class. |
"American Pie", "Alone Again (Naturally)", "Heart of Gold"--Three Big Hits in Our Senior Year |
Bill Lasky and Kevin Buckley's extended stay at the Hotel St. Luke's in the summer of 1971. I bet Kevin still says, "Why Bill, why?" |
