    He was even nice enough to autograph her one, too!– And it’s so Ironic that there’s a Taylor Swift poster hanging up…. Only because of how many “break-up” songs she has now accumulated within the past couple of years… I guess Lu is prepared now, though, just in case… – She even has a comic up there… wonder if it’s about an imaginary stuffed tiger? She happens to love all the stuff that Greg likes… including the Beatles….

    I didn’t have much of a summer break after I graduated from high school; I had to report to the Missionary Training Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints the next month (my assignment came in the mail the previous month and was to Albuquerque, New Mexico).

    You heard her, Frank – she said “I can… live on my own!” This is your big chance, so take her up on it. Wait until she goes outside, and change the locks.

    My cousin graduated a few weeks ago and right now, he’s taking it easy for the summer before he goes off to school in the fall. He wants to get his Associate’s and then Bachelor’s in computer science. He already knows a lot about computers and will make an excellent computer tech. But my mom (his aunt) is worried that he won’t go through with his plans, like his older brother (my other cousin), who graduated 4 years ago, because he has yet to do anything with his life (he got a scholarship, but still isn’t in school). I reassured her that my younger cousin has more of the will to follow through on his plans than his brother does. He’s more outgoing and ambitious.

    The posters—Australia, The Beatles, Taylor Swift, and Greg 6-22—all contribute. Graduation has clearly been tiring to our newly-liberated princess (and her pup, Puddles). But Mom and Pop are right, as usual: the brand new is just the same ol’ same ol’.

    It’s a pity that Luann can’t do something out-of-the-box, like joining the US Military.

    She darn well would learn to keep her area clean.

    Another month and Luann will realize she doesn’t relate to the stuff in Seventeen magazine because its content is aimed toward schoolgirls. She will give all her Seventeen magazines to the girl down the street who is entering middle school. A week after that she will notice her room is like a schoolgirl’s room, so she will clean it and paint the walls. She will keep it orderly because she has reached that level of maturity. Her clothes will still be a teenage girl style for awhile, but she will not feel the pressure of dressing like all the others her age. She will develop her own style of dress.

    Her senior year lasted only one year our time.*Time flies so fast— there’s so much more to cover- ACT/SAT, college apps, pictures, class trip, homecoming queen/king, leading all the school activities. I could’ve used another year to get used to all the changes.*Darn, I feel old! (even forgot how to spell my log-in name for five minutes.)*Happy Summer everybody!

    “Lazy Day” by Spanky and Our Gang wow, there are people as old as me here! One of my favorite groups

    I guess I am, then… :-) Although I don’t recall Spanky & Our Gang covering Lazy Day, I recall the Smothers Bros. cover of it on their “Comedy Hour.”

    I do, however, recall the S & OG cover of: I’d like to get to know you…

    “Kind of funny thinking of my earlier years.” -Love this story Brd. Reminded me of when I got an internship in my 2nd semester of grad school. I was hired after a month. When I got my first paycheck I was so elated because I realized I was making more than my mother.

    The S & OG version of “Lazy Day” (from 1967) can be found on YouTube.

    or maybe that was in “Live and Let Die”

    More likely. I just listened to two different YT videos and did not hear a cannon in “Let ’em in.” But I did hear the fife and drums, as well as saw colonial British troops in full regalia.

    Forgot two things:

    (1) I do however have a “45” of “Sunday Will Never Be The Same” .(2) I also have a “45” of “Kind Of A Drag” by the Buckinghams…. but…. I also have a “12 inch” from them… “Greatest Hits”. It’s in Mint condition, has a plastic jacket over the cover, and no scratches….. -Okay, I’ll throw this extra thing out there, since it’s on my mnd:

    Many people may or may not realize it, but Richard Chamberlin and John Davidson (Game show/talk show host) were pretty decent singers and had recording careers. I have their albums on vinyl, as well…
