Old Notebooks ca. 1986

In my basement filing cabinet I had several spiral notebooks from college. Most of them have 10-12 pages of class notes and then more than 100 blank pages. A few have odd, embarrassing, and terrible personal scrawlings about feelings, plans, girls, and other stuff. I wisely threw these away just now.

I ripped out a few amusing pages for the purposes of recording contents here just for giggles.

Dear Mr. Phillips--
As you recall, Sept. 12 was my last day at Hershel's for the summer. I am now neatly tucked away at college and have no way to pick up what may be left of my pay. If you would please tuck my check into the S.A.S.E. enclosed I would be greatly helped. You have my permission (if indeed you need it) to sign the little yellow pad for me.
Have a great year--thanks again for all your help over the summer. Please convey my appretiation to Kim, Karen and Mr. Carey as well.
Sincerely Thank you,
Steve R.
