No the one like two years ago. I will say, it normally smelled like pee.

Bonks was a dump. I have not been in since the refresh.

I have worked in port Richmond for over 20 years. Ten years or so back I was at the target, grocery shopping and talking to my wife on the phone. I mush have been moving slowly through the isle, because a woman behind me said “out of my way, fa$&@t.” I was shocked and stood there for a minute. Before I could respond, she said “you heard me fa$&@t” and walked by me.

Charming people, the Port Richmond folks.

Land mines.

A few things I forgot. 10% of my graduating class went to Harvard. If you’re not an excellent student it can be a really hard place not only scholastically but emotionally from feeling less than capable.

I went to GFS and then my son goes there. I didn’t wanna send my son there because I had a hard time. I took part in the drug culture and struggled greatly until I decided to stop using drugs. That said, college was easy after high school and I was able to make good grades at an Ivy League school with relatively little effort. That said I always had some resentment towards the school so we started my son at another quaker school. After three years there we decided that the level of academic expectations was too low for what our child was capable of attaining. It was as if they were quite content with students being above average rather than great. He transferred to GFS and has done very well because he is naturally focused and capable of guiding his own education. He’s the type of kid that has never had to be asked to do his homework.

Mostly idiots leaving bars late.
