Dear Friends of Marlow Heights 60s and 70s:

“Nobody Bothers Me!”

Remember those Jhoon Rhee Tae Kwon Do TV commercials, with the two little kids proclaiming, “Nobody bothers me!”? I believe at one time there was a Jhoon Rhee school near the 7-11 at Dallas Drive and St. Barnabas Road. I found a video for one of the commercials on You Tube:

YouTube - Jhoon Rhee Taekwondo Nobody Bother Me Commercial

I’ve had problems opening the video in Firefox, so unless you come up with a work around, just use Internet Explorer.

Charlie Watt’s Shop Class at Benjamin Stoddert Jr. High

Many a boy attending Stoddert took, “Shop”, and had Mr. Charlie Watt. A classmate of mine, Allen Ashby, submitted a photo of the desk table/lamp, and drinking glasses made out of old returnable soda pop bottles:

Existing, “Red Barn”, Restaurant in Wisconsin

Thefarm

I actually visited this ‘Barn in Wisconsin a few weeks ago, and it’s very obvious this was a former Red Barn. Not only that, but they’ve kept on many Red Barn menu items (I had the present day equivalent of a Barn Buster).
