What band?

We never really named ourselves...but the community started calling us "Jeff's Garage"

i.e. if nothing else was going on on a Friday or Saturday night everybody would head down to "Jeff's Garage".

We mainly played keggers, parties local dances...etc... Circa 1977 thru 1982..

A friend of mine told me that Grandpa from the Munsters ran for public office, I think a local one, in Missouri. She claimed there was a dispute because he wanted to be listed as "Grandpa" on the ballot.

Wasn't he one of the bunch of celebs who wanted to be Top Goober in CA against Schwarzenegger?

I like Barry Mannilow songs:

Reach out, reach out and touch someone
Have it your way, have it your way
Like a good friend, State Farm is there

You left out the one that gave us David "Makin' It" Naughton:

I'm a Pepper, you're a Pepper, and if you drink Dr. Pepper, you might find that you're a Pepper too.

Knock three times, on the ceiling if you waaaaant me!
Twice on the pipes, just to let me know you're there.

Upon reflection, I realized that my offer to you was rather presumptuous. I should have asked you if you'd be willing to share since these guys actually belong to you and I'm the new kid on the block. Of course, what they want is immaterial.

Do you require a security deposit of some sort? I can't promise that they would be returned without damage. ;-)

Gals, you have it backwards. You need to ASK me permission if I will share you. The answer is NO! ;o)

However, SISU, you may have them both for keeps for some quality info leading me to blue ribbon trout spots in your neck of the woods. Freepmail me! :o)

Cast aside for fish. I don't think anything like this has ever happened to me before. It would be easier to take if you were kicking me to the curb for a mammal. ;-)

He's getting mighty uppity, Dasher. I'm not sure what to do with him at this point.

Oh wait! He hasn't given me any fishing tips yet. Heck I don't even know if he fishes. He looks like a rocker dude, so he may not. I may have made a bad bargain! ;o)
