Thirty-nine Years Ago...

Today I shed a tear of disappointment as I read the newspaper. David Cassidy was charged with a DUI in Florida.


What's become of David?
When did he go down hill?
How could he have changed his ways so quickly?
He was always such a nice wholesome young man.

Wait a minute. The newspaper just said that this "young man" was now 60 years old. Has it really been 39 years since he was making headlines as a teen idol? Has it really been 39 years since I called my first meeting as president of the fifth grade "David Cassidy Fan Club"?

I remember listening to one of his records over and over and over again in my bedroom. I'm sure my mom wished she would never have gotten it for me as a birthday gift. And how could anyone resist watching "The Partridge Family"? He was about the cutest thing I'd ever seen. While other girls were swooning over Donny Osmond and Michael Jackson (mere babies), I was interested in a more mature 21-year-old.



Okay, David, I'll forgive you this once, but don't let it ever happen again.
