One Reason I Love Berni...oh and Another Reason I Love Ernie

O.K.....I love Berni for many reasons.  It was so great to see Wendy and him at our what shall I call it....Kenny/Paul/Pat party awhile back. (oh and by the way Kenny----I keep meaning to email you but I never manage---I keep thinking I want to tell you how wonderful that evening was and what perfect timing it was that it gave us a little boost before we went into a tough month.....).  Anyway.....one of the particular things I'm liking about Berni right now is that he spends almost as much time as we do on youtube.  One of my new favorite things is to check what his new favorited videos are.  This is the most recent:



Of course my favorite spot is when Bowie is singing with his arm around Mick Ronson.  Ahhhhh.

On an unrelated note here is a 1980 Artful Dodger video.  Now take a look at the lead singer and picture him with blonde hair and no tie----and that's kind of what Ernie looked like when I met him (January 17, 1981 for those who are counting.....).  Ahhhhhhhh is right!

Funny, to me the guitarist looks exactly like Leo...

Love the Bowie video. There was a girl in the class ahead of me in high school who, unwittingly, looked just like Ziggy Stardust.

Drive-in Theaters

  • Getting ready for the evening...
    My friend Eileen says that the reason I've been so obsessed with drive-in movie theaters is because my parents never took me to one as a kid. She's probably right. She usually is. Reportedly my older sisters went to the drive-in but I have no memory of it. The first time I remember going to the drive-in theater was with Eileen and I think it was the summer before college. I remember eating dried apricots and some kind of warm pop while watching a bad movie with a Cheap Trick song on the soundtrack..... My friend Alice and I were in grad school together in the late 80's outside Detroit. We ended up photographing drive-in movie theaters throughout the midwest as well as brief trips to various other spots. We always said we were going to write a book but we never did. I just dug out the slides I have though and man, there were some great drive-ins!!! It's been twenty years so of course many of these are gone I'd love to hear from anyone if they have drive-in anecdotes or know if any of these are still around. I took some of the photos, Alice took some---I'll do the Lennon/McCartney things and just list us both on all of them. She can always switch the order of names after I die.
