Who could it be now? Ted, Shawn, or Michael?
It’s a tough call, but my money’s on Shawn. I can see the rumpled Code Bleu jacket in the back seat, next to a can of New Coke, a ticket stub for Rambo: First Blood II, and an empty Dokken cassette case. You rock so hard, Shawn.
While we’re at it, who’s the proud owner of that black Trans-Am that always screeches into the roller rink near closing time, scouting pubescent girls in banana clips and Esprit blouses?
Is it Ben, Larry, or Franswya? Ben is bringing the preppy Blaine vibe, but I heard he drives a totally rad Ford Bronco. Larry is not allowed to operate heavy machinery until he’s done participating in the clinical trial, so it must be Fran, giddy as heck.
I do hope that Franswya is not an alternate way of spelling François, but either way, he’s in his 40s now, so he’s at peace with the name. It’s not quite as unsettling to me as boys named Kameron, but like the overrated movie Frozen (really, what was the BIG deal?), I’ll let it go. Let’s focus instead on Bob.
What about Bob? I don’t care if those keys are to his Porsche 944, I’m not going. I’m taking the school bus home today.

For these guys, Madonna’s “Like a Virgin” was more than the sound track of their lives; it was the description of their lives.

I’d say Shawn, too. He has George Thorogood written all over him. I’d say Bob owns a Ford Escort. Rev it up, and listen to him purr. Meow, Tiger!

Good call. He had the 3 door hatchback.

Shawn was the coolest, no contest.
Franswya was first generation, parents picking letters out of a hat to match that name they heard. Sure he’s giddy to be let out of the house on a Friday night. Strict mom and dad!
Bob needed the Heimlich maneuver to retrieve his car keys only seconds after this photo was taken.

Well, that’s what a laissez faire attitude will get you. Swallowing keys!

that ‘stache and those piercing freaky eyes are so not hot. But I’m from the midwest, so what do I know? 😉

I can’t mock that which I do not know, so I only mock the South. Mostly. Perhaps Michael’s dad just told him his college fund is depleted, so he’s trying not to cry.

I am so confused. These are high school kids? I would guess that Ted is the motor head with the Camaro. He needs a cool car the most, bless his heart. I think Ben has the Trans-Am. He’e the closest one to a mullet. Fran is just giddy,because he got turned down for the drug trials. As for Bob. Well he’s just not right.

You talk a good game, Benson. I think you’ve changed my mind. Ted drives the Camaro. It’s all he has really.
