This site has been set up to share thoughts and photographs with friends and relatives regarding Peter. This is a work in progress and will change and improve as time goes on. Our thoughts and ideas are, just that, ours. They may or may not agree with Peter's, but that's what makes the world go around (and seems to be an endless source of enjoyment). If your not going to respect Peter's opinions, than please continue reading. He is a conservative in every sense of the word. He feels that a civilized society cannot function without rules and regulations, rights and obligations. Letting the past guide us keeps our society from falling into chaos. Keeping the things that work, to allow for order and freedom, freedom for all, not just the special interest groups. Peter has come to realize that life is short. We should tell the people that we love that we love them as often as possible. One never knows when this may be ones last opportunity to do so. By the way, we will all be watching what is said, not doubt even his mother may very well be reading this. And YES, please wear your shoes into the Parlor!

Peter's role in the whole debacle was beautifully portrayed in the movie HOFFA(though admittedly he was too tall for the role) by the great actor Danny DeVito.
I knew Expat had something to do with Hoffa's disappearance! I had heard rumors that Expat had buried Hoffa under the Anne Carroll tennis courts at Feehan.
Can anyone identify the building in the background?
Sherman, Jackson Funeral Home, the corner of Main and Park Sts, Mansfield
yeppers
if I'm not mistaken, isn't the person on Expat's left his prom date from 1982?
Wow! That worse than being the last person to date someone before they turn gay!
Did he take Sharyn Bankert? I don't remember. She did become a holy roller.
No. He took Tom Cruise.
Codswallop. Tom Cruise would NEVER have gone with Peter. He got Kelly McGillis in Top Gun. He had Nicole Kidman and now he's got Katie Hudson. Do you think he'd have stooped as low as Peter, even in his younger days? Come on jo jo.
You're probably right. Screaming queen that he is, he still wouldn't have gone with Expat.
Question, can anyone answer this question we have at work? What Frank Sinatra song has the line "brother can you spare a dime?"
You know that's the title of a George Michael song. You playing that at Rum Runner this morning?
In 1932, the bottom of the Depression, composer Jay Gorney had a tune that was a kind of shtetl blues, intended as a ballad for a woman who'd lost her man. Yip Harburg heard it and promptly turned it into the breadline anthem "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?"
I think Sinatra might have covered this song.
AbsoSmurfly not! I just discoverd that fact while looking for the song.
Maybe "Brother can you spare a dime" but I don't remember Frank Sinatra ever singing that. It may have been a line in "one for my baby, and one more for the road." I like sharing the photo with the great Hoffa. And yes, I would have placed his body in a tub, filled it with active lime and then dumped the remnants in the concrete at Giant Stadium. It's easier and no one's going to demolish a stadium to find one guy. If they did, they'd find an entire cemetary, but thats another story. And my prom date was a girl from folk group because the other 6 girls I asked wouldn't go with me and I had already bought tickets, so I need a female to acompany me. I later learned, to my chagrin, that Kelly Coyne would have gone with me had I had the sense to ask. We live and learn.
I can't find that Frank covered it. I think it's a line from another song.
THANK YOU EXPAT!!!!
I guess it would really depress you to learn that Erin Brennan would have gone with you to. Best not mention it then.
I heard Debbie Fales was waiting for him to ask, she almost didn't go to the Prom because of it.
That's a lie, Erin would not have gone with me as she was dating some slummy guy at the time. Erin didn't start to like me again until she saw me again long after BFHS. I was the only person that she would share her snack with in kindergarten, though. I was quite the playboy at Our lady of the Angels kindergarten!
Very funny all. I'm glad now she didn't want anything to do with me!
Expat is lucky he didn't take Debbie. She became quite rotund as she aged.
If Peter had married Fales he would have lived in attleboro next to the puerto ricans.
Not Attleboro! I'd have never lived in Attleboro. I repeat, I'm glad she was never interested. She's turned into quite the round ball! Didn't even turn up at the reunion. Or maybe she was at the AA meeting Lacombe missed!
Oh, do tell.... And where do you get all this jucy info, Lori. Is this what is discussed in the teacher's room?
the guy who owned Mike's truck Stop is dead? That was one of my hang outs as college student.
And you, Expat call me Superficial! HA!
After waitering at The Plaza Inn (now Lucianos)we'd go there for drinks after. Went to a few places along route 1 late at night.
The company I work for owns the cranberry bog behind the truck stop.
ATTENTION ALL BLOGGERS! I am signing off for the week-end as I must prepare for the 1st Communion Festivities. The Fete as mentioned earlier, is Sunday at 1pm at 68 Rumford. As a parting note there will be the regular meeting of Nercles Annon. tonight at 8 at the above address. You may now all proceed to eviscerate me in my absence.
that bog? Oh my, I relieved myself quite often in the bog.
Isn't jo jo a great guy for leaving early to help daisy in the preparations. If we all followed his example this would be an even great nation than it is.
it's been a busy day spilly. you work, you lose around here.
as for college, those were summers that I spent cavorting around route 1. I was 20. and I was covorting with another waiteress named Michelle. she was 30. :)
I don't know Dr. F, are you sure you we're trolling for other types on rt.1? I'm not insinuating anything, but Rt. 1. Spilly, I never dated erin, just said we ran into one another after college. I also never dated Maria, just needed a date for the prom and she had mentioned that she would go with me if I needed someone to go with. I had the tickets already! And yes, dear Debbie shacked up with the guy from Mike's truck stop after she and her father fleeced her mother out of everything. Or that's how her brother tells it. He's a very nice person. Then the truck stop guy got hit on Rt. 1. I wonder if he got hit the same way Sonny Chilli got hit?
so, where is debbie today?
Has this line died out? Where is Dr. F.?
I am here, but am busy today.
I'll be in New York City on Wednesday, and out of daytime blog range, and on a golf course on Thursday, and out of daytime blog range, and off on Friday...in full blog range!
It's the junkets that Dr. F. goes on that really kill me. Not only does he have a do nothing job, but he gets to travel as well. That's not so bad, cause look whose talking, but he does it on the taxpayers dime! I think someone needs a good tar and feathering, don't you all?
I have a very important meeting in NYC on Wednesday! I'll walk up to the guy's office, knock on the door, and say that "I"m from the government and I'm here to help."
If he's colored he'll accept your money, if he's not he'll tell you to get the hell out. The govt. is never there to help only to get in your way!
