To
the Ugliest Scab of them All,
No, I wouldn't like to think that you're changing your mind
(or should I say settling your mind) because of what I said.
Maybe I shouldn't have said it. Oh well, I didn't say a thing
about going downtown to Anyone, anyway. You said you didn't
want them around much longer. How much is much longer? Until
you turn 18?
You were supposed to phone me at 7:00-Anyway I'll be hearing
from you tonight and we shall discuss it.

Congratulations!
you-yes, you-Mr Alan Rhodes-have been nominated The Scrag
of the Year Award!
Lucky
you-you are one of the many lucky people who have been nominated
from year to year-on April 27! Well-Well-Well-May I shake
the hand of the celebrity for today?
Hi
Alan
Down
to business-I am extremely angry with my mother. I think I'll
downtown even if she is mad. Mark's father and sister are
going away for the whole weekend neat Tonight (did you phone
Jan?) I guess we'll go downtown.
So
it's settled. Even if I have to say I'm going to Fairview.
I'm going to say that you have to get two albums, Mark's getting
an album, and you're looking for a jacket. Mais non? Bain
Oui! Nous irons a Montreal àpres souper. Oui? My pants
split. Do you have thread?
List
of other places we could go:
Fairview-ugh
Mark's-you'd be bored
Dorval-whoppee
Jan's-aha!
I'll
speak to you in Art.
Bye

[I
do remember going downtown with Lesley and Mark. We wandered
around the Atwater area with really nothing to do]
April
30 Monday
Art-talked
to Lesley and Linda. History-Andy told me
[Foster] Tilden was busted with mesc. Lunch-Linda,
Bob, Andy, Donna and Mike out at the back. Linda and Andy
went to Dave's [who's place had become
the place to party during and after school. (Andy and Ralph
told me on August 11, 1994, that at one of these afternoons
Linda had asked them to whip her with a belt...)]. Donna, Mike and I went to the student's lounge with Lesley,
Mark and Christine. Got one joint from Ralph Bird as a treat.
English-talked about girls with Webb, Wiener and Niven.
Unrecorded
events from April & May:
- A
near accident on St John's, Lesley in the car at least.
(early April)
- Dave's fascination with the book 'The
Happy Hooker' by Xavier Hollinder (March?)
- That dreaded seventies icon, the mood ring, makes its
appearance (c. spring)
- Donna, friends (Percey etc) and I were at Café
Rouge in Beaconsfield, we filled out a complaint card and
they threw us out. (maybe May, though these times with Donna
always remind me of 'Houses of the Holy')
- While watching a hockey game at Donna's, I burnt my face
under a sunlamp (about 1/2 hour..May)
- Ralph's father was driving us home one night from Donna's
in Kirkland. Some of us were on mesc (including me) and
the large church in St Genevieve we could see from a distance
was not a church at all, but a giant holding aloft two crosses...
- Somewhere in this period, I can't be more exact than
that, a Canadian(?) show began on TV called "Starlost".
It starred Ken Dullea (from '2001') and concerned a group
of travellers on an immense space ark (an idea taken from
the movie 'Silent Running').
- Probably late April - Ralph, Dave, Linda and I went to the
Pits at night. I remember Dave chasing Linda, who was topless.
I also remember lying on top of Linda (considering my reaction
of a few weeks past, Ralph reacted with surprise). Hey,
even I was sixteen once...we met Andy and Donna at the C.C.
after.
