David Cassidy

Post by Firebird »

One of the 2 heart throbs of mine David Cassidy has crossed into the land of summer. This mornings paper confirmed what I had worried about when I heard he was hospitalized a few days ago.
Lead singer (with his real life step-mother Shirley Jones) for the the TV band The Partridge Family, he had many hits in the early seventies. Here's the most popular and well known song from that show.

Rest with peace David....

I always wanted to be a Partridge, partly because of the really cool bus, but mostly because I had (have) a monster crush on Susan Dey with that disarming smile and valium gaze... Although her being a Partridge as well may have caused a conflict of interest...

Firebird,

Who was the other one? Bobby Sherman, Lief Garret, Davey Jones or Donny Osmond?

oh ya...for the guys Susan and the girls David!!
Danny Bonaduce used to hang out at my high school during lunch hour, he was a friend of a friend...that dude was trouble.
I think I wanted a psychedelic buss ever since that show, and singing into the hairbrush to the 8 track tapes!! Those were the days!
C'mon get happy!

Firebird, T'aNuk, etall {that look}.

I told Spirit about this "adventure". A psychedelic experience with a bus. Got to go to a mutual friends wedding with some "very close" friends. Happy, Happy. Two day Bach/Bachette party started1400 Friday went to 0500 Saturday. Wedding 1800 Saturday til no body remembers. Real Happy! Sunday. I was elected to drive home. No one else could stay awake longer then 15 minutes at a time. It was a GREAT party. I now had to drive 3 semi- comatose people home, in my friends 2 month old car {I swear there was still new car smell in it.}, going into dusk, over roads I had never driven before for 4 hours. I was the one in "good" shape. I was 1/2 way between hammered and hung-over. I had a rat's patoootie of a chance of carrying this off. Most of the roads were 2 lane, winding , through the White Mt. of NH and the Green Mt. of VT. Everybody was out of it. The snores was what kept me fricken awake to drive. I figured the only way this would work was if I got creative. I took the car aphasic. I slipped it into a close reality in the fan shaped destiny that continually branches from this reality. It had been one that didn't really make it through the cold war. Neutron bombs and EMP blasts in orbital space from what I could figure out. There weren't even many germs. It was one of the problems they had. It's amazing how much we relie on microscopic organisms that we only think about when they make us sick. We don't think about the zoo living on and in us that must be replenished from the environment. There weren't enough people to go MAD MAX. Only the people had been destroyed. About 1/2 way home my friend woke up, it was almost dark and we saw, coming toward and past us, a bus, painted purple/lavender with stuff strapped all over it with a cow sticking it's head out the window of the bus like a dog. I still, after 36 years tell him it was a drunken delusion.

I guess I'm weird {Oh, like everybody didn't know that already}. I was hot and bothered by Gracie Slick, Cher, Helen Reddy and Joni Mitchell.
