Terry's Story
I live in Westwood, NJ in North Bergen County. I've been married to the lovely and fabulous Ms Bridget for 25 years.
Ms Bridget is from Long Island and I am from Staten Island, so what the both of us are doing in Westwood, NJ...I have no idea.
Our Son Ian,is 22, lives at home and sure could use a full time job.
If you don't remember me, it's probably because I had not yet become the wonderful and witty person everyone goes on about on about these days in their Terry Brennan fan blogs.
I grew up on Brielle Ave. just across the street from the school.
Before the school was built I often looked out my bedroom window to admire the wooded scenery.
Then one morning while I was eating my cocoa Pops and sitting in front of our family television, the best friend I had as a kid,the bulldozers came.
The pine trees were gone and up went the steel goal posts.
The school soon opened. "Here come the hippies", my Dad used to say.

By the time I got to high school I was already pretty bored with the place.
My mom would look out at the field and when I came home from school she would ask me why she hadn't seen me in gym class.
My Dad would complain about kids throwing garbage on our lawn and the kids parking in front of the school at night and drinking beer.
I moved away from home early in my senior year, so I had to take a bus to school then.
The bus stop was a block away from school and so I had to walk past my house.
Sometimes my mother would come out on the front porch of our house and wave to me..that was pretty weird.
I went on to graduate in June of that year. A few years years ago I was visting my cousin Cathy Jones in Virginia Beach. I hadn't seen her in many years. She brought out a copy of the class of 76 yearbook and I signed it for her.
We laughed about that and of our memories of High School thirty years before.
