Isn't he the coolest?

Would you believe he's now 65 years old?

That video is amazing, thanks so much for posting it!

Do you keep in touch?

and he responded with a very nice long snail-mail letter. (he's computer-phobic, apparently.) He asked me for a pic of my family and me, and I didn't have a recent one available so I never wrote back. Ridiculous, huh? I keep meaning to do it. :silly:

How do you know of him?

I lived in Boston for a while in the early 1980s. Never saw him live though. But people in the scene there, as you know, love him. Bostonians and Belgians. Go figure.

They bought out nearly everything in property, including the fisheries.

Portuguese fishermen?

that is what I remember from my Coast Guard days about the place

used to tow disabled fishing boats in there, always a big fight in progress on the waterfront

was apparently full of shit.

Conspicuously absent from that meeting was Gloucester High School Principal Joseph Sullivan, who has not responded to repeated requests for comment after he was quoted last week in a Time magazine story saying the girls planned to get pregnant together.

The mayor, who also sits on the school committee, said she was not comfortable having Sullivan at the meeting.

<Mayor> Kirk said she and Superintendent Christopher Farmer have been in touch with Sullivan, and that he was "foggy in his memory" about how he came to believe there was a pact.

...

But Time posted a story on its Web site Monday that included new quotes from its earlier interview with Sullivan in which the principal said a lack of access to birth control didn't play a part in the surge of pregnancies.

"That bump was because of seven or eight sophomore girls. They made a pact to get pregnant and raise their babies together," Time quoted Sullivan as saying.

:eyes:

Because he was about 40 in that video- he's now 65.

I can't watch the video at work

Lovely.
