[Heeplist] Stephen Fontaine!

Thu Apr 10 21:31:52 EDT 2014

I was born and raised in Dayton, Ohio, former home of the Wright brothers,
the Dayton Gems & Owls IHL hockey teams, and current home of the minor
league, Dayton Dragons, baseball team; the world's largest military
airport, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is located just a couple of miles
down the road from where I used to live, and is home to the Aviation
Museum, which houses the B-52 bomber, "The Strawberry Bitch", famous for
dropping the bomb on either Hiroshima or Nagasaki, and "Project Blue Book"
(Aliens anyone?); therefore, a multi-cultural city with people from all
over the world, and, quite possibly, out of this world.  By the way, the
Dayton music scene is known for Country-Rock bands like "Bramble", singers
like Tom T. Hall ("I Like Beer"), and more for the amazing Soul & Funk
groups of the Seventies, such as "Slave", "Lakeside", "The Dazz Band", and
the most famous of all, "The Ohio Players".  So, let me "Slide" on out of
here before I find myself in more hot "Fire" on our never-ending "Love
Rollercoaster" as Igor would love us to believe.  lol
