My senior year was like that, with an after school/Saturdays job.

You just didn't know the right girls.. B)

At the time, grades 12 and 13, I hadn't found any girls in my school
that were that accomodating. I'd been invited to a party one night
by a casual friend I used to go touring with on motorcycle. There was
a girl at that party who took a shine to me, and she was already out
of school, although the same age as I was.

Funny, I got her attention when I threatened to beat the crap out
of a guy who slapped his girlfriend at the party. I was invited with
a few others back to her place for an after-party, and then she asked
me to stop back in the next day.

When I stopped at her place the door was opend by her(?).. no
that's not her(!), so I asked if she was home. The girl's mouth
dropped open, and she said, 'Um.. just a minute..', and then the
lady I was there to see came to the door.

This was apparently a trick they played on a lot of people.

Needless to say, they were identical twins, and so identical that
they could fool not only teachers but their parents pretending
to be the other.. I think that drew the lady to me much more
solidly and quickly, that I could look at her sister and know
right off that it wasn't her.. B)

I was with her for 4 1/2 years..

Mike,

I am pretty convinced that there were not too many "right"
girls at my school at the time... I lived in an area where
girls whose families had more $$$ went to all-girls catholic
schools (and boys went to all-boy ones), or they went to the
traditional high school or the performing arts magnet school.

This is true.

The "right girls" that went to my school had probably dropped
out by the time I was driving as they'd already been hanging
out with guys who could drive and had an 18-year commitment to
take care of by then. ;) Most of the girls I knew lived at
home where both parents kept an eye on them.

There's a file I've posted in the Comedy Echo before (I need to
finish getting the autopostings set up), on an "Application To Date
My Daughter". I literally filled it out, and gave it to my future
in-laws (this was 25 years ago). Needless to say, I was approved. <G>
