Don't worry, after I slap you, I won't let anyone else near you. I would never slap you by the way.

IT WILL PROBALY BE WHEN THE LATE COMERS ARRIVE...AND THERES NO MORE FOOD LEFT....YIKES

Joe, do you remember a large fish tank at Bruce's house?

NO I DON'T......WAS IT ON 20TH STREET?

Me & Pat Fairchild who lived in between me & Bruce used to go to their house on Christmas Eve and feast on seafood, yummmmmmmmmm.

Yes, on 20th St.

HI JOE ORLANDO,
ANY OF YOUR FAMILY KID ON TACK IN FARRELL. I ALWAYS SEE TWO KIDS ORLANDO BOYS DOING VERY WELL AT FARREELL HS. THAT IS THE TRACK TEAM MY SON WAS ON WHEN HE WENT THERE. HE WAS THE HIGH JUMPER FOR THE SCHOOL. LOVE TBONE

I will have to go see Betty when I get up to NY. Her and Armando were the best.

I WAS SELDOM IN HIS "LIVING SPACE"...MOSTLY IN HIS BASEMENT.....

Terry, I was a magnet for Sister Georgina's slaps. But it didn't end with slaps. She loved to pull my hair and drop the hair she pulled out on my desk and fling the eraser at me. Whenever anyone talked and she couldn't figure out who did it, she would look at me and go for it??? LOL.

I never remember any other nun doing that.

WOW JANET......TODAY THAT WOULD BE ABUSE

She would have me put my head under the wash room faucet because she thought at 10, I was dying my hair???

She always went into the closet, so we figures that she had a pizza or other food hidden in there, lol.

YOU KNOW LOOKING BACK NOW...AT THAT TIME IN SCHOOL AND THE SCANDAL IN THE CHURCH THE LAST FEW YEARS......
.....THE PRIEST SHOULD HAVE ABUSED THE NUNS AND THE NUNS COULD HAVE SLAPPED THE CRAP OUT OF THEM ALL THEY WANTED

I was very protective of my son when he went to school. One time the teacher took a toy off him and I went up there to see why. She told her that he said to her "MY mother will come up here and beat you up", lol. I wouldn't by the way, lol. I wanted to give him a kick.

OR A HORNY PRIEST WAITING TO GET BEAT UP

I don't think there were any nuns that the priests in our parish would have been attracted to, lol.

FATHER STRANISES?

You know, a few of the priests in our parish had a soiled lifestyle, if you know what I mean.

YES I DO.....BUT NONE OF THEM EVERED SLAPPED ME......MAYBE I WASN'T THIER TYPE.....OR THEY PAID THE NUNS TO DO IT

That story is sort of a mystery. There are a few versions of what happened. I looked it up a few times over the years. It is online.

I REMEMBER ONE NUN THAT WAS YOUNG AND PRETTY....I THINK SHE WAS SISTER ROBERT FIDELIS

We were afraid of Father Salerno. He used to look at us very strangely and we used to hide on him when he came to bless our house.

JOE WE SHOULD HAVE BOTH BANDS PERFORM......FOR FREE OF COURSE
