Every time I see one of those bus stops, I ask my wife if we can stop the car and go sit in it. She then slaps me and calls me a freak, so I procede on. But seriously, i'll have to take a picture of one and post it.
Do that Ric,it would be funny.My memory of the bus stop was having to walk during darkness because of daylight savings. I remember being really scared especially without Dean to walk with when he was sick:)
There's no Bus Stop quite like that Bus Stop. So many of us honed our creative writing skills on those walls. It gave us a place to hang out, shelter from the rain, a place to light as well as light up. And sometimes we even waited for the bus there, although reluctantly.
Where the hell is Pat anyway?
Does anyone remember some of the things we wrote on the bus stop walls? Chris once wrote in big fancy letters...BOJAK was here.
I don't remember doing grafitti but, you guys,for the most part, were older than I. Did the little ones at the time write anything? I think we were too scared...repercussions and all.
I know everyone has to shop for Christmas but,take a second a drop a line:)
Also,I'm curious as to whom wrote what...come on ,let's let it out because that was soooooo many moons ago.Some things might jog my memory!:)
I can't recall anything specific but I do remember that most of the contributions were decidedly Blue in nature. Some were also illustrated quite skillfully.
Nothing was out of bounds and we were all targets at one time or another, although some more than others.
The most popular themes were drugs, a persons lineage and sexual preferences and who had the hots for who.
Ben Bast was a popular and recurring theme topic.
I remember peering out of my bedroom window one fine afternoon and to my horror I observed Mr. Carraway intently reading what seemed like each and every bit of prose that had been entered by the local scribes. While some of it was no doubt fairly skillful writing there could be no question that a number of the contributors were some seriously warped individuals.
Shortly thereafter the Bus Stop received a fresh coat of paint.
To some of us that was like a clean sheet of paper.
Yep Doug, I remember the bus stop being repainted, (a battle ship grey wasn't it)? I remember sitting in the bus stop with nothing to read or look at. It was kind of depressing I thought. But I do remember that the local artist and poets soon reemerged.
