What year did you graduate? I think you are the first person on Tapeshare who said they went to Maxwell. I have great memories of that school. I would take the elevated train to the Alabama Ave stop and walk down Pennsylvania Avenue. Wonder what that place is like today - it was kind of ancient looking back then. |

I graduated St.Rita's in 1975 and lived at 291 Essex St. between Liberty and Atlantic Aves. If any of the class of '75 is out there, I would love to hear from you... especially my best friends from Essex St. |

They were under the impression that everyone wanted to rip off the 10 cent rubber mice and 20 cent Spaldeens they sold. I was frisked in there at the age of about 9 (they found nothing) and then left alone (within sight of course) to"shop". Thanks alot. Another golden memory of a store that I never entered again. They acted as if it was going to be big headlines or it was going to be portrayed on the next episode of Dragnet if they caught a kid. |

As far as I'm concerned you were the best abs in the history of the sanitation dept. Retirement is great, but still miss bk18 once in a while. Micelli said to say hello. Take care |
