my madeleine

since posting the Tom Mahl video I've been corresponding with some old classmates.  the school in that video was Garford Elementary. from there I went to Eastern Heights Junior High. Bill Cooper (far right in bottom row) unearthd this picture. I wasn't a jock & rarely went to games but I remember most of these guys. & seeing some of these faces for the first time in years has unleashd memories heretofore lockd. I haven't studied the way memory works & don't know how individual it mite be.  but for me often a photo can release something which locates the past in my head.
