Hey Guys, the song is Witchcraft sung by the best , ol' Blue Eyes, Frank Sinatra. My wife has a collection of Sinatra stuff. When Sid Mark stopped his Sunday with Sinatra we had to subscribe to Sirius radio and now we have Sinatra 24/7.
Our group use to go to a place called the Scottish Center in Bay Ridge. I think it was between 68th & 69th streets and 4th avenue on the opposite side of Bay Ridge H. S. I remember times when they would clear the floor to watch when Froggy & I were dancing with some girls. Whatever happened to Jimmy Pepa and his sister Carol. Great people. I saw where Camille Ligouri now Green was on the old web site but it seems like she never made the transition to here. I used to go to Alan Taglianetti's house and watch his dad, Rocky make the ravioli from scratch. It was delicious. I went back and visited Alan's mom Carol about ten years ago and it was great to hear she is still around she was great to me when we were small and I thanked her for it. My mom & dad moved to Puerto Rico and mom has the beginning signs of dementia but remembers the disant past pretty well. So many people from the neighborhood are gone from the scurge of drugs that hit the area but I still remember them fondly from before they got strung out. I heard that Stanley & Bobby Wieceszak's mom Frances died. I loved her. She use to take us to many of the Mets games. I was able to thank her for all she meant to me before she died. She made these beautiful note pads from used greeting cards and she gave some to my wife who has kept a few as a remembrance of her. Louie Roman, one of the owners of the Riviera club on 4th avenue died in Orlando earlier this year. I remember working the coat room there on many weekends. Deetcy's club was awesome. Plenty of good times there. I hope I can reconnect with him & Lucia. I want to thank him for being such a great human being. I remember Josephine Locisano, Celia Letizia, Rosemary, Joanne Christine going out with my older brother Angel. Josephine' s sister Natalie was my girlfriend for a short time and Camille"s cousin Nina from Valley Stream was my girlfriend for three years. Her mother and father, Sal & Sue Pisello were the greatest. They would let me come and stay at their home in Long Island. Her mom taught me how to play the real Mah Jongg. I'll save more for later. Please keep this going. I miss you all so much. One of the girls from JHS 10 ((Peter Rouget), Mary McGullam, has a class picture on her Facebook page. Francesca is in it and Lucille DeCanio & Pat Maslankowski Bjorkman who I have been staying in touch with for about a year now. Please keep her and Fran in your prayers they are both facing some health issues. More later.

going xmas shopping now to 86th st..toniann gets the most, so she's the one i concentrate on the most..she just ordered new uggs on line.. in black..last year for xmas she got the brown ones (classic) this year the black are the crocheted ones..she also went to get a piercing in her ear,, at the tattoo shop by us..(she got the bar that goes thru the cartilege (sp.) my husband was not a happy camper, but he had to sign permission slip because she is a minor. it looks cute, but she said it was realy painful. so now she has 2 holes in each ear & the bar at the top in one ear...oh well, we all went thru our phases...:)

No, it's actually Joanne Walshinsky, Eleanor's daughter she has two boys one is Paul Christine her married name. My mom & I went to that wedding. Joanne christened my sister Michele.
Here's one for you,
"THE BROOKLYN FOX THEATER PROUDLY PRESENTS, MURRAY THE K AND HIS SWINGIN' SOIREE WITH A BLAST, FROM THE PAST, A GOLDEN OLDIE FOR YOU" and then the first act would come on. My older brother took me to one of the shows and we even got a free LP album. Do you remember those? Much bigger than a CD.
Does anyone remember Lauren or Susan Malaband ? (sp.)
