MEMORIES - GINA BAILEY

TOP 10 List of Remembrances of Evergreen Past: 1979-1983

1. "Pot-Lucks"- not to be confused with 'Potlatch' - although the reverence for such gatherings was comparable - the luck was in the 'drawl'.
2. "Field Parties" - didn't know where they were then and 20 years later, still don't - just followed all those women in comfortable shoes and men clad in paisley ankle bracelets with hacky-sacs in pockets - not a euphemism for condoms in the 80's.
3. Geoducks - more than a mascot - a conscience!
4. EST- "GOT IT"- "GOT OVER IT'- "FOR-GOT-IT."
5. Allan Ginsberg- and.... his "squeeze box (es)".
6. Contrary to the zeitgeistof the times, the combination of Guatemalan wool sweaters and rain was proven NOT to be a form of aromatherapy!
7. "The Co-op" - AKA North American clearinghouse for brewer's yeast and never-before-nor-since-heard-of types of honey.
8. Forte-Da Ave. Tav. - The Deconstructionists VS. The Bikers.
9. Orwellian Newspeak - Reagan inspired 'culture of poverty' reframed as 'voluntary simplicity'
10. Explaining transcripts to the Dean of chosen graduate school(s) !!!!!!????!!!!!
