1960...I'm four.
It's the 4th of July, and my Ma won't let me go see "GORGO", which is playing at the Dreamland Theater, which we're standing in front of, watching the parade.
Had she let me go, I might have met my best friend, Dave, fourteen years sooner...he was there, watching the movie.

MEMORY:
1973...I am seventeen.
That summer, I worked my first job, at the Sanitation Department, during the day. At night, I hung out at the Ohio Theater, geting paid in free movies, popcorn, candy, and ogling the Manager's daughter, Helen, who worked the projector, and, since the booth was hot, generally wore a bikini to work.
