“Boys to Men”

Looking at this picture takes me back to a time when the only value that money had was rent, gas and a hamburger. We were three kings in our second story penthouse in the hills of Los Angeles with the hardwood floors and the revolving door where females would be swept off their feet and into our bedrooms. 

A time when a smile, an attitude and a glass of smart conversation could put you on the road to a body slapping marathon that could last until morning. Yes sir, a time when even the high hanging fruit was hanging low. A time when our bodies dictated our existence and our minds just went along for the ride! 

Will this ever end I thought? No sir, it will last until the end of time. But Youth and ignorance is bliss until the former runs out of time and the latter realizes that he can no longer exist without the former.
