Welcome to our new panel! We are so excited to welcome Michael Ellis and Amanda Weeks to our regulars. We were all getting acquainted today as a team. Boy, howdy - what we covered. It was like a tour around the small towns of the West.
But before we get too far, Bryan had to bring up CLOWNS! You heard me - clowns. He has never been a fan and is actually quite against having them around. As a kid Santa, Mickey Mouse and the rest of the costumed characters had no place of joy in his young life. Clowns I get. OK, here's my clown story: I'm 9 at Ringling Brothers. They knew it was my birthday. ALL of the clowns surrounded me overhead and sang happy birthday in their creepy clown voice. Add that to the old horror flicks I'd watch on channel 13 in the 70s and AAAAAAA! ENOUGH!
Since the panel all hails from smaller towns up and down the coast, but at different decades. Our babies of the bunch, Drew and Amanda, talked about how it was during the 80s in school with AIDS education, sex ed and more. Bryan and I were at the same school. They didn't cover much. Condoms, briefly. We compared stories and realized that in the deep South, with simpler upbringings and lower demographics, there was a lot more talk about contraceptives, condoms and other options rather than talking about the fantasy world of abstinence.
When you live in a small town, it can be very difficult, especially when there is a lower education level, perhaps also a stricter religious prevalence.
Music time - upcoming concerts:
Fleetwood Mac - that's where Amanda's going.
How about Susan Tedeschi and the Tedeschi Trucks Band? I've seen them up here at the Oregon Zoo - GREAT SHOW! Consider it. Patty Griffin with Scott Miller Nov 1 at the Balboa Theatre.
OH my, late night television and commercials are WAY far away from the Brady Bunch.
That's about as much as we'll say about that.
