Back in the day

Good lord it must be 10 years gonr by now.
I had me a black vw scirocco ( for those of you who don't know think of a vw golf trying it's god damndest to be a porsche 944) with limosine black tinted windows.
A friend and I were cruising around at babson college when for what must have been the first time I really heard that "yeah" at the begining of raspberry beret. I stop the car right in the street in front of the library; and with my lil ol kenwood deck turned up to 11 I rewind and play the begening over and over.
Until I realized the girls smoking cigarettes out in front were about to panic.



good times
Now I'm older than movies, Now I'm wiser than dreams, And I know who's there

Well I thought it was the amusing prince anectdote.
How about this:

I work part time as a manager at a fast food place.
up here in mid-coast maine we are whiter than white.
recently when the teenagers give me trouble I have taken to saying "you're gonna recognize". they just stare uncomprhending.
(I went so far as last week I caught a girl throwing a pickle and gave her the "oh lawdy, you in so much trouble now")

















-"caught a girl throwing a pickle" I might have made a serious vocational error.
