My boss encouraged me to meet with Paul at the bank and see about client referrals. I ventured out to the prospective clients and was successful with the first two. I knew it before but was reminded to hide my true life from these people, if I wanted to do business. Felt like pulling off a daunting tight rope act. 

Graduation and meeting with Mike's dad, Paul, about business opportunities. 

Two weeks from graduation. Meet up with Mike for a birthday party. My life take a turn. 

Tim tells Bonnie about my mental disorder. Bonnie confronts me and I play innocent. Tim gets busted. 

With the school break I'd have two weeks at home. I would go to the club by myself. I would also begin work on the old house. 

My trip to DC continues. Travel to the White House with the Chief Justice and have coffee with President Nixon. 

The summer and fall of 1969 were eventful: I stayed with the Chief Justice of the US, met the President of the US, expanded my gay world journey. 

This is a song that was produced for our fortieth anniversary.  Also included is another song that Freddie produced for my Podcast, Stained Fortune. 

Clearing up the mess Doc had made.  Doc giving me loads of gay newspapers. Stonewall Riots in NYC.  Invited to Lee's house for dinner.  

Clearing up my relationship with John. Telling my "secret" to my mom. 

I traveled down to Miami again for the weekend and met up with Doc. We went to the gay bar he promised me. 

John wants to meet up with me and talk. We talk about what happened the night of the frat party. We travel to the beach and it seemed like all my dreams were about to come true. 

Continuing to have a traffic jam in my head regarding being gay. Meet up with my priest, Father Steve. John coming back to talk and more. 

I am in turmoil because of John. He doesn't think the two of us should continue playing around. 

My first same sex experience was in the backseat of my car. In the heat of it we were busted by the campus cops. 

Fall of 1969, my third year of college. Having my first gay experience and dealing with all the non-acceptance.
