Duck and I were best friends growing up. We went to California together after graduation seeking fame and fortune. That didn't happen. We came back home and he lived with my family for a while but wegot separated due to different sets of circumstances (his draft lottery number was low). I attempted to get in touch with him while he was in Tulsa but it never happened. So sorry about that. We had some great times.
