Shelley, I have spent my life looking for that Taffy! Every year we go to the Smoky Mountains and I see the taffy there, and I always try the ones with the yellow or white wrappers thinking this could be it..but it never is. Why is it that only one peson in history knew how to make great taffy? And it's gone now forever?

EAST COAST CUSTARD LOCATIONS ARE ALL OVER CLEVELAND. I BELIEVE THEY ARE INDIVIDUALLY OWNED.

Speaking of Ghoulardi,
Remember being uncool to wear white socks..."Parma"
socks. All those jokes about Parma...not very politally
correct....My favorite bad movie:"Little Shop of Horrors", later made into a musical Phrases like:"Feed me, I'm hungry". "Bring on the chow".My sister & I will sometimes come up with these weird phrases, and our kids look at us and just not get it.

Does anybody else remember "Little Shop of Horrors" being a "one star" movie the first time it was on? Then it went up to a "two star". Then, I think it's next rating was "three stars".
It never earned that last star, but it was made into the play.

Shelley, find out what the website is for me and post it, I'd appreciate it. I live in Florida so I don't think I'll be at Gale's Nursery anytime soon! Oh to taste that taffy again....

At Roosevelt, in 1963, I was in the office when an anouncement went out to all the rooms that Kennedy had been shot, and we would observe a one minute silence. Mr. Rutan our civics teacher, taught us how the government was run. Bob Kinslinger seemed to know all of the answers in Lillian Bogart's French class. I guess he must have done his homework. After lunch, they would always send us to the cage, to hang out. It was located between Boulevard and Roosevelt. Sometimes after school, we'd stop by Meithers, on Lee Road, to buy the red licorice silver dollars for 4 cents each, or 3 for $1.

Hello All-
Unfortunately, the East Coast Custard in Brunswick closed last fall. My daughter lives in Brunswick and my grand-girls loved it.
Laughing Sal can be rented for private parties and is mesmerizing!

Speaking of East Coast Custard.......anyone can buy a one.....for a mere $300,000!

Actually "Little Shop" started off as a low budget film released in 1960. It was shot in 2 days for $30,000 and had Jack Nicholson in a very small role. It became a cult favorite. From there it was adapted into an off-Broadway (and eventually Broadway) musical in 1982. The film version of the musical starring Rick Moranis was released in 1986. Any of the versions are great.

Speaking of cult films do any Monty folks remember going to the auditorium after lunch to watch movies? Somewhere along the line the school started showing about 20 minutes of a movie the last half of lunch period and spread the entire movie over a week. I remember seeing the original "The Blob" with Steve McQueen, and the original "The Fly" with Vincent Price. I guess those films were too intense for some kids and parents complained of kids having nightmares (wimps) so they stopped showing horror flicks and started showing Fred Astaire films.

Shelley Hornik gave me this site for Davis Bakery and I looked it up and it says:

The strange thing about that homeroom picture is I do not remember Cindy or Fanny being in my Homeroom... Fanny was my wifes good friend for years until we lost touch with her... (any help here?)

Bonnie Hirsch (Lauer)

Not to leave anyone out.....

In the Homeroom picture-Tom Szabo, Mary Beth Revelt and Richard ?'s name should be added

Park Synagogue- Marcy Meyers and Sharon Faigin are in that picture as well.

I was just searching the pictures as well. The Coventry 6th grade picture also includes Lynda Mintz, and the Boulevard 6th grade picture of Mr. Julius' class, that question mark is Sheryl Solomon.

The Coventry 6th grade picture- has Lynda Musarra front and center

Where is that Park Synagogue picture from? I went there too...and I don't recall ever wearing robes for anything, and I'm not in the pic (well...at least I think I'm not in the pic!).

You guys are doing great! Great minds working together..I love it! Just keep filling in the blanks and we'll figure out who everyone is one at a time. I am in the process of working on the Pictures Then & Now page so anyone who has not put any pictures on their profile where I can copy from you can send them to me straight at magnumpi95@bellsouth.net. I need to know what elementary school you went to as well as what jr high you went to too so make sure you include that in your email. Thanks for all your contributions. This is fun to work with you all.

I just made a Sports Corner towards the bottom of Photo Albums...so any of you out there sitting on pictures of your school teams from jr high school, send them to me. There's a few schools we haven't heard from yet..need some more class photos from Boulevard and Millikin too. Need Monticello pics and Roxboro too. Keep em coming..

Speaking about Meithers, on Lee Road, Howard Wolfson (62 years old), the owner, died recently (saw his picture in the Jewish News). He moved the store to a location on Mayfield Road in Lyndhurst (this was many many years ago) - unfortunately he did not stay open for too long.

I hope all of you living in nice warm sunny climates are enjoying your winter. Cleveland had yet another snowstorm this morning, and the temperature is going down AGAIN. Luckily I don't drive downtown, so riding the Shaker Rapid and not having to deal with more snow and terrible traffice isn't too bad.

So glad to see all of the new names on the classmate profiles - PLEASE check the list of missing classmates and help out the committee - thank you to all.
