Kevin W,

I do remember your brother since the time he played midget soccer in the rec league with Chucky Pearson & the Diflorio brothers. We called him "Rabiit" because he was fast as hell. But he knew better than to come my way as a high school kid playing pick up games at Friends School in the summers that I was in college, because 'Homey diddn't play that S***!!!

If you're EVER in the Atlanta, CALL ME!!!

This site will be up for a long long time.

And fortunately only those who have "logged in" can read the forum.

So we are safe, at the moment, from our kids knowing all.

Just thank Al Gore that YouTube wasn't around when we were young and foolish. 'Cause the kids would have serious black mail material... right now we can deny any stories. But videos, well, that's another issue....

I stand corrected. Anybody can read this, you just have to be logged in to post.

So no last names please.....

Wow,
This REALLY sux. The girls are out of town, so I'm flying solo for the weekend. I hang out with the guys, have a couple drinks, get home, take a nap, and it's only 11:30.
Jill, Martha, we can't (I can't) wait 5 more years...let's do something EVERY year!

Peace, Love & Kisses,
Clyde

Laurie, you did dance solo to "Tears of a Clown"...in an orange leotard! For Moorestown teenage boys...a life event. I remember you practicing for weeks down in my parent's basement on the black & white floor. Anyone remember that little space? Andy, I have a cute picture of you in that room wearing a happening red felt beret with Bob passed out on your shoulder. Think I might dig that one out and bring it on Friday. Dad builds telescopes down there now. He used to insist on giving my friends math tests before we could leave the house. I'm driving the kids in on Tuesday too. They are wondering what to do all week .

Cleffers...good work on the site! Is it possible to maintain posts for posterity or is all we write safe from Big Brother...wait.... are YOU Big Brother?

Wow! It is a treat to get to see/read/hear how goes one another's lives.

I love reminiscing about Mo'town, but usually end up chuckling to myself since I can only relate half of the stories. The redacted versions are funny enough, but decorum and security clearances demand discretion.
I mean how does one explain discovering "Pop Rocks" in a closed section of the Stevensville Ski Resort? In today's world it would be explained by: breaking and entering; illegal trespass; possesion of illicit materials with intent to distribute; minors in possesion of alcohol; public drunkeness...Hey Jill Wilkinson...can you help me out here?

O'D.
Let me set the stage: Spring of 1975, Mr Maddux's class: Freshman English; 30,000 pounds of bananas ...sound familiar? Oh I was a thespian too, worked as a stage hand...you know... behind the scenes. Exit stage left

Kevin Walters,
Mr Johnson's DODA...dummy of the day award or referring to Sully as "Cro-Mag" or "Half man" how would THAT go over in today's Politically Correct world? Ms Broz's 911 Targa please for accuracy's sake! Please forgive my morbid curiosity but what was the name of the young man in our class who sadly drowned on a canoe trip..maybe when we were in middle school?

11/16/08 01:56 PM #110    

Kevin Walters

Hey Brendan,

I do remember the DODA award very well in Mr. Johnson's class. Jim Willis was the the leader of the pack in receiving them. Mr. Johnson also had the SODA awards...Scientist of the day Award....Nina Yanai earned most of those! The name you were searching for that had the accident from Middle school I believe was Brian, but I can't think of his last name offhand. Hit his head on a rock while canoeing, pretty tragic. There's plenty that occurred back in our time that would never fly today....both good and bad.

Kevin,
Gig harbor is beautiful...so I am told. I know a family, a soldiers's family, that lived there, and some of them might still.
There were 4 girls; Jessie, Becca, Annie and Katy Welker. These gals are exceedingly smart and beautiful and if your clan attended Peninsula HS you or yours may have known them.. They would have graduated last year though…or the year before …OK! OK, not too sure exactly when.
Back to the original point… Gig Harbor looks nice.

…Oh my my… so you are where all the North Cackolackians have Corralled All Relocated Yankees… Cary. I’m down the road a piece in Fayetteville, you know, the garden spot of the Sandhills area, where pawn shops and Asian Markets reign supreme.

The boy who died in middle school was Brian Shapiro, that was very sad, I belive he was an only child. It is pretty funny to see how many of us went to Ott's between classes. Can't believe we didn't all run into each other. Can't believe we all survived some of the crazy stuff we did back then. Brendan I don't know if you would remember this or not, but I bet the girls do, Mr Maddox used to stare at our chest when he spoke to us. Very creepy. Talk about creepy, how about Frank Pocius. I used to flick seeds on his over head projector. I also seem to remember Brendan jumping out the window of his class one day. So many memories.

I think I'll make a run out to Memorial field tomorrow, around noon, just to take a walk around. Daydream. Has a plan for a game of flag football been decided? I any case I think I'll take another ride to Memorial Field on the 28th for another stroll on memory lane to kind of refresh. I may ride out to the school, to see what they've done there.

JOHN Nardelli,

Sorry about the mix up...Hell, I was drunk from Senior year until my wedding day, so you'll forgive if I sometimes forget stuff.
One thing I'll never forget is your not-so cryptic yearbook blurb. Given that I spent most of my senior year having an INCREDIBLE 24 HOUR BLAST, it was really quite sobering to stop and consider that EVERYONE wasn't LIVING THE DREAM. Not to worry - the superficial BUBBLE that was MHS soon BURSTS and those inside are left to mingle with the unwashed...
LIFE GOES ON - SO ENJOY...

Brendan,

Talked to Tim 'the Mouth' Monohan yesterday. I really HATE having to miss the shindig - parties just aren't the same without the 'CLYDESTER.' Who's going to flirt w/ the women in my absence.
Anyway, for the strangest reason, I thought of being at Corbett's wedding - can you say 1982 - and you lying on the roof of the limo - while doing 50 mph, in traffic - in parachute position. Had it ANY of our SANE friends, I might have been a tad nervous, but the fact that it was you made it somehow quite normal.

Don't Die - Multiply!!!

Clyde,
I am unclear as to how my son(s)have become fodder for our dialogue, but please do not convict the son(s) for the sins of the father! My three sons took only the best of my nature and my blessing of a wife’s loving nature and nurture. So actually your daughter could do worse! Ask Corbett, my son Ryan’s Godfather.
Oh..and surely you did not mean to refer to me as “criminal insane” I hope you truly meant “criminally inane”…you know… so silly it’s a crime? Or maybe it was a crime for people to have had as much fun as we did.

Brendan O'Connor

My gosh Luanne Munns! Howdy Neighbor!
Mr. Maddox used to stare at my chest too! It was soooo creepy.

I remember (barely) laying between a set of speakers at your home on a New Year’s eve …probably 1977? ?while Springsteen was played over and over again… One soft infested summer Me and Terry became friends..etc..etc.

You have nothing to be sorry for Clyde. I'm not angry with you, or with any one, I didn't mean to come off that way about crossing Dave with me, I was joking around.

Everyone; as far as what I wrote in the yearbook, I want to make up for it, I fouled up our Nutshell with childish anger over one person, I was never angry with every one. Now that anger is gone; not because I forgave her but because I was wrong; She never did anything to be forgiven. She never was the type of person to invoke that kind of statement. That's why I've been writing the way I have, because I ruined everyone's yearbook, I ruined everyone's memory. It's always going to be there. I need to make it right, but I don't know how. Going to the reunion and making a blubbering appology won't work. Outrageous and obvious flattery and trying to be funny now; when I was introvrted and miserable all through school, doesn't seem to be working; and I get the feeling that no one knows what I'm going on about. I'm nervous because the one thing every one is remembered for, traditionaly, is what they write under their picture and I've relived that time when I had those last days to change it.

AND I NEVER DID!!

I am so,so sorry.

If I could have all our books reprinted I would thank you; you are all my family. My heart embraces you Moorestown High School Class of 1978, now, then and always. May God bless you.

Susan Berner (Morrison)

John, I've been "lurking" here for a few days reading everyone's posts. Just for the record I have no idea what you wrote under your picture in the yearbook! Give yourself a break - that was 30 years ago. We are all totally different people now and all have things we regret. Stop beating yourself up!

I've really enjoyed all your posts. I wish I had known you better in high school. Seems like we all hung out with our little groups of friends and didn't venture much further than that. I hope you have a wonderful time at the reunion. We live down here in So. MD and can't get up there for it. It would be nice to see everyone and share memories, both good and bad.

Ms. Berner,

I always remember you being able to bring it around to "reality".! Ditto...John, we've all had/have/will have/continue to have "issues" (as my 8th grade daughter says). I can't even remember what I wrote, if I wrote anything at all, 30 years ago. Let's try and use this sight, just a suggestion, to highlight and share with each other what we haven't been able to over the last 30 years....what made our class of '78 one of the best in MHS history....worts and all! But mostly a place to rip Clyde....since I'm still way smaller than him, but miles away!! lol

Wow, this site caught fire since I last visited! Thank you Andy for this. Martha, I remember Frampton as well as hanging with BA at the McChesneys with Dip. He was great!
