Greetings TIM!

 RW>>> Sixth and University? Cool!

 TR>> The very spot!

 RW>> Reminiscing one day, I drove through the neighborhood where I first
 RW>> stayed in SD, back in the 60s; There used to be a rooming house at
 RW>> 6th and Laural. Imagine my surprise to find faggots running the
 RW>> streets and little else there. Nancy and I split the area, post
 RW>> haste.

 TR> Yeah...I drove for Yellow Cab in mid-to-late 1979 while I was waiting
 TR> to get my paperwork to go through so I could go back to interstate
 TR> trucking.

 TR> What an area! All those sodomite bars along El Cajon Blvd or
 TR> University from about 30th on west to downtown.

Well, before that happened, there was a piano bar there that was run by a
couple who made a great entertainment team. He played piano while his wife
sang as she roamed the floor. It was like being in a turn of the 20th
century barroom; Mickey (her) and Finn's, don't recall his real name.

 TR> I used to carry a briefcase for my trip sheet, money log and hack
 TR> license, as well as a Colt .45 auto. Even the cops carried a hide-out
 TR> pistol in that area. The place was crawling with street people, petty
 TR> criminals, hookers and sodomites all over the place. It was like 42nd
 TR> & Broadway in NYC!

One of the best entertainment places we've been to in that area was a
female-impersonators restaurant with a stage show. My innocent 40yo cousin
came in from the farm in Wisconsin and we treated her to that place. She
was so impressed with it, she didn't stop talking about it for about a
year after. Her mother used to come with my parents to visit CA and she
told me about it. I was just as impressed that my cousin was impressed
with the place.


    Have a day!
