A Memorable Event as described by Jerry Bob:
There were a group of us out at the Travis golf course one summer night just before dark having some beers. There were quite a few people there, who traveled in a number of cars. At one point we saw a vehicle coming down the road traveling very slowly. As it got near enough to determine that it was a Sheriff's car, everyone scrambled for their respective rides. Of course, I was riding with Mark and Barry Pinson in Mark's Corvair. Mark was unable to start the car and the deputy had us get out of the car and pick up beer cans along the road for 200 yards in either direction before letting us leave. Mark realized that he had been trying to start his car with his house key. When we finally caught up with everyone else later in the evening they all enjoyed the story, as I'm sure you will as well. Mark had forgotten about this incident until I went through the whole story. These are the memories that we can look back on now and realy laugh.

Why I think of Danny Vasquez everytime I am in the shower...This incident occurred in Mr. Keifer’s World Geography class in our freshman year. It was a late spring day and I wore what was fashionable then and again now; a cotton smock top. I felt especially good in it; it had no sleeves with little poufs at the shoulder a totally "girl thing". Mr. Keifer was playing this game with us where one student would stand up front pointing out different landmarks on the spot. The person up front missed the landmark and I raised my hand to go next. At that very moment Danny Vasquez looked at me and said in his very Danny Vasquez way: “Ooooh Girl, you need to shave your pits.” I was totally mortified, my ego deflated and any special feeling in the new smock top was gone in a blink. There was no way in hell I wanted to go in front of the class after that. I went through the rest of the day keeping my arms to my sides. To this day every time I am in the shower shaving my underarms I think of Danny’s LOUD advice and I say to myself; Ooooh Girl, you need to shave your pits. ~ Debbie Gonzaga Newell |
