Yes, Quigleys was great! I specifically remember going there one night and dancing to the song OPP by Naughty by Nature!
+1000!
With my spandex bodysuit and spandex daisy duke shorts, at 16, I was destined to get up in there with a $20 bill!
Slipping $1 bill in your spandex body suit.

(Giggling) Your story reads much different with dear husband instead of designated hitter.

It's now referred to as the WAUD (I think that's short for Whittier Auditorium) but the kids refer to the whole building as the WAUD.

My DH was a bartender at Crazy Horse way back when!
Am I way behind on terminology? What/who is a DH in a non-baseball sense?

She was so intoxicatingly classy and beautiful. I used to have fantasies about meeting her in New York City and having her think I was quite the man - completly non-sexual of course but so amazingly head over heals for my teacher.

I streaked in the mid '70's when I was in high school. (Twice)

Do you remember when Captain 20 landed in a helecopter in the athletic field behind Whittier Woods? It must have been around 1969.

Being a student at Whittier Woods Elementary - a safety patrol on Maiden Lane. When my teachers went on strike and I had to cross the picket line past my 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Freedman - shame on you Mrs. Freedman. It was so ugly.
