I came home the other day and Jennie had a dreamy look in her eyes. She was looking at a photo of me that a friend on Facebook had posted. She said I looked like all the older guys she had a crush on in Middle School.
Makes sense. I was in High School at the time, 1983. Jennie would have been... younger than me. In the picture, I'm dressed for the prom and standing in front of my Porsche 914, looking cool.
The Porsche is parked in front of my friend Bill Simmons' house. Fitting as he's the one who found the car and insisted I buy it. We also have a bunch of pictures of me driving that Porsche in La Jolla with top off; Bill snapped the photos while driving his 1970 Dodge Challenger at about 70 miles per hour and hanging out the window.
I trusted Bill about everything, so I bought the 1972 Porsche 914 and became a chick magnet. Even though, I sold that car in 1987 or so, it's still workin' for me!
Here's the photo.
