attend my 20 year West High School reunion in Anchorage, Alaska (read all 4 entries…)
SCAN HOME! 3 years ago

Ah, the long hours we spent back in the day at the Olympic Center and those great Scan Home dances…

It was fun to see everyone. Thanks to Teresa for the Herculean effort. I’m back in San Francisco and will be following up with my Bay Area classmates for some mini-reunions (some of whom I didn’t even get a chance to chat with)... on a side note, Charol Morikawa’s husband swam to frickin’ Alcatraz! Just had to put that out there.

One more note: Please consider putting your personal contact info elsewhere. These forums are public and any psycho (Mark Forceskie) can find you.

If you like, we can start a West ‘86 Yahoo! Group (no offense to 43T, Dan!) where you have to subscribe to get in. That way at least it’s secure and you are known. I’ll set that up, if I can get a “Scan Home Rules” from someone.

Who's hand is that?

Kevin, who is trying to cut in on the happy couple’s dance?

we both look disturbed

I remember having fun dancing with Xavier, but we both look a little upset with our fake smiles on in the picture.

Good idea

I like the yahoo groups idea. Alternatively we could post all of our personal information here, but on a post that also includes a photo of ourselves or a family member toting a bigass gun.

Now Kevin, were you the one running all over AK telling Joe that I said he’s funny-looking like Paul Giamatti? Or was that John Hedlund? Certainly couldn’t have been Dan? I’m in trouble, and Joe’s getting back at me by telling me that I look like Shelly Duvall. I can’t find the post, but I think all I said was “could someone photoshop a pic of Paul Giamatti onto that picture of Joe”? Certainly these two things are not the same? Its going to be a process digging myself out of this one.

Ms. Duvall

Just keep your bathroom door locked.

What movie is that from?

I’d just been thinking of Olive Oyl, from Popeye. That’s an attractive picture of Shelly also, though.

The Shining

One of Stanley Kubrick’s finest films. On the other end of the axe is Jack Nicholson.

Shelly Duvall?!

Yeah, I was running all over Alaska yelling.

You have nothing to dig yourself out of. Never did I say anything about “funny looking”. I told him about a funny thread regarding Paul Giamatti (and I believe I ended up with Robert Plant’s hair).

Joe just wants to spar. He’s going off half-cocked with nothing but drunken, second-hand info, filtered again by his drunken, pugnacious terrier brain.

After all this time I know it’s just Joe’s way of being affectionate. He did ask to see the thread, but I think as an AOL user he has been unable to see anything on the web for about 7 years -this makes him all the more punchy.

Shelly Duvall is way off. Joe knows this. Again, pure affection.

I’ll set up a Yahoo! Group asap…

You are right.

I did not see or hear you yelling in Alaska, not even once. Not even a peep.
Meanwhile, it looks like i have e-mailed my way out of that one with Joe, via the creaky AOL account. I actually caught Sideways again this weekend, and felt horrible, because Miles really was such a nerd. And it occured to me, should we not instead have photoshopped Scheffer’s face over the Thomas Hayden Church character? Again, I’m not saying anything about Scheffer or his character, or what he might do in certain situations, particularly after drinking, just a suggestion to do some recreational photoshopping?

Wasn’t there a bottle of Pinot Noir on the line with that picture? And wasn’t Joe supposed to share in said bottle while we sang Tesla on the Karaoke? I didn’t get a chance to talk with him all weekend! Bummer!

Yes!! I feel bad about the Pinot

I was going to bring it on the plane, then I was going to buy some on the way to Friday’s event, etc. and it just fell through the cracks. I’m sorry! We will have to do that some other time at a Karaoke place though. I’ve found that there are parts of that Tesla tune that are way out of my range, and that I’m much better suited to Pat Benetar (“Promises in the Dark”, that sort of thing). So, i do apologize for not bringing the pinot, and hopefully we can mini-reunion sometime before the 25th.

Old Age

is creeping up on us. (OK – I can only speak for myself, but being one of the youngest kids in the class…) I forgot about the Pinot AND the Karaoke until you mentioned the photo in your post above. I’ll be lucky if I remember it tomorrow, much less on the 25th or at a mini-reunion! I’ll put a note on the fridge…

Keep praticing that Tesla song! I bet given a couple months of belting it out in the shower you could nail it!
