If you could catch them before the third bounce they were fine, otherwise they exploded. <br /><br />Once this unpleasantness ends, we should have an "old gang" meet up there.Jeff McGinleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17788944317811387240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690632656143895108.post-32631342872686145882020-03-25T16:56:06.953-07:002020-03-25T16:56:06.953-07:00Thank you for this Jeff!

I have got to get back down there and see this all for myself again. Sounded surreal.

I know I only had coffee once in college. I was exhausted on a Friday morning I had a group meeting in the McNeil room, and I ordered a large coffee which was served in the same cup as a large soda. We went to the UMASS Juggling fest that weekend and I didn't sleep the whole time.Jeff McGinleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17788944317811387240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690632656143895108.post-74302236217944976292020-03-25T08:04:20.241-07:002020-03-25T08:04:20.241-07:00Only Remo when I was there.

There was even a time in the past where they became self sustaining by doing paid performances. (We were an all volunteer group. Not sure if that makes us more altruistic, or dumber.) Love the singing group's name by the way.<br /><br />Cousin Helen, glad you enjoyed the vicarious trip and the flashbacks. I learned almost all I know about the process from you anyway. (Including the valuable difference between eye contact, and the stare of a deranged maniac) ON a complete coincidence, I have travelogue's lined up for Monday posts all the way through August, so reliving these trips is helping me too.<br />Jeff McGinleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17788944317811387240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690632656143895108.post-87744352153073101912020-03-21T10:27:18.921-07:002020-03-21T10:27:18.921-07:00You know by now how much I admire your writing.

The a cappella group in law school that I joined in its inception year, 'Wand'ring Mistrials (yes that was our name) folded about 5 years after I left I think. Which was very sad, we were so happy about doing something fun and new! And happy to hear about the beginning of Anabelle's search and looking forward to hearing more.
