''Past Dealings With Executive Administrator''
---This is very convoluted from my own standpoint. I don't know what it may sound like to you. It is how my past and present has converged.
---I went to High School with Joe L---. I have written about this in my website called BOBBY - OGRAPHY, ETC. We formed the Bobby Darling Show, and performed many times together. It was a great time in my Life, and there were more than a few wonderful moments.
---This all happened in Massachusetts, where we were born and raised. I stopped playing in the Bobby Darling Show due to what was occurring in my personal life. It is more or less there on my Blogsites, if you care to read it. For me, it was time to move on.
---I hitched from Massachusetts and got to California in 1982. I spent time in NC, TN, TX and then Southern California. I left there for my final destination, where I have been for about 24 years and counting. I joke that, ''I Stopped in California, because I couldn't hitch to Hawaii.''
---I had always kind of wondered if ANYONE I would ''run'' into would be from MA and remember the BDS. I have met others from MA., but nobody remembered. I accepted this and as the years have gone on, I just expected it NOT to happen.
---I had some Documents I had written and I wanted to give them to the Staff at the Hospital where I live. I began to attend some of the meetings, but did not know how to convey any info, other than running in to them, and picking-and-choosing my chance.
---Someone suggested I e-mail them and attach the document. Well, being as sharp-as-a-marble, sometimes, I didn't know what he meant. Attachments were NOT on my SHORT LIST of things I can do on a computer. Learning anything on the computer has really been a need-to-know process.
---A volunteer at the hospital had taught me how to Post on a Blog. I began Posting my ''vital'' info on a Blog and we would look at it during the meeting. As I'm sure some may know, some people were far more impressed than they would be, if they knew how easy it is made.
---I showed my Blogs to Rowena T., in the Administration Office. I could tell that she was not aware that anything like this existed...and that I had a bunch of them. I don't know if there is a limit on the amount one can host, but I will bet it approaches infinity. My relationship with Rowena had grown as she was instrumental in my being invited to different Staff meetings that were being held.

---It, Finally, Gets CONVOLUTED---
---This is where it gets convoluted. Rowena T. innocently shared the fact that one of the Residents/Patients has all these blog websites. She shared this with the Executive Director of the hospital, John K. Next thing I knew is that I have an e-mail from John K. He was very supportive of what I had done and asked,''Where exactly in MA., was I from?'' He read this fact in my blog.
---He had been appointed CEO a year or so after I had taken residency. As the saying goes, I didn't know John from Adam and he didn't know me (as far as we knew.) But, now, we had some commonalities in our past. I would like to add here that I had always gotten along well with John K., but was completely in the dark about our pasts.
---After a few e-mails and meetings, I found out that John K., is from my hometown and we went to the same elemetary school. We have a few people in common, but what really ''knocked-my-socks-off,'' was that he remembers the BDS and saw us play at a local ''establishment,'' in MA. The unfortunate part is that I am about 7 years older, so seeing us play would have just put him into the, ''Get away kid, you're bothering me,'' age group. I'm just kidding. Actually, I'm here to see that the, ''Boys from Main South are eating all their vegetables per order of Mr. Mahoney, our former Grammar School Principal.''
---As, I said, someone seeing the BDS is something that I had placed on the ''back-burner'' a number of years ago. If, thirty-years ago, someone had said that,''this man will someday be the CEO of the hospital you are going to be living at in California,'' I would have thought that this is crazy talk. ''What do you mean hospital, anyway?''
