> your expectations or impression of them ?


Here are MY answers:

) Plastic. I remember that was an important word discussed in "The
Graduate". Benjamin Braddock was told by his father's friend that "
plastics are the future." I believed it.

2) Three levels.(Getting more adult at each level) 1. When I learned how
to drive. 2. The first time I was over 7000 miles away from home, on my
own in a foreign country, with just me, myself and I. 3. When I started
my own businss and became successful the first year. (The first time I had
sex did NOT make me feel like an adult, just fun. Like discovering a new
toy.)

3)Mr. Bondi in my High School Biology class. I loved him, I loved the
class. I had a crush on him but it was not the reason I loved the class.
It was nice that he was good looking but he opened up a new world for
me...science. Besides the amazing things I learned in class, he was also
an awesome teacher...not a snippet of boredom ever got into that class. I
sometimes wonder what ever happened to him. I would very much like to
meet him as an adult. He made such an impression on me, that if I had had
my adult head 'on' in those days, I would have wanted to get involved with
him..... but I was too stupid at fifteen....about sex...didn't know what
it was.


4) I would like to reverse the time my 9 year old self asked my friend Judy
to hide in the closet while I asked my sister, unaware of Judy's presence,
whom she liked better, Judy or her sister Debbie. My sister replied
"Debbie". It was the worst kind of gossip because the person was right
there! Shoulda gotton a HUGE time out for that.

5) I am going to get totally slaughtered for this and will probably get
stoned. But I don't give a flying fig what you web surfers think!!
It was Bill Clinton. A bunch of us campaigned for him in '92. When he
was elected he came to a Mall in our city to visit. They lined us up
along a wall with tons of security all around us. And then we waited. He
had come to where we were standing because he had heard what a great job
we had done. When it came to my turn in line to shake hands with him, all
I could think of to say to him was: "We really worked hard for you, Mr.
Clinton." He smiled and put his hand on my shoulder and replied" I know
you did." There is one thing that I know is true. He has an amazing
presence in person and I sort of just melted. I can understand his
problems with women. But my gut feeling told me, though, that he wouldn't
do anything to anyone unless they wanted it. I think Monica is a floozie
and so are the other ones.(the Flowers and the Jones psychos) He is my
Hero because he basically did a lot of things that I had wanted for this
country when I voted for him. We all forget about the history of our
presidents including JFK. Bill just got caught.
