Pubis Returns for a Farewell Tour

During the summer of 1998, Pubis returned from Seattle to bid farewell to New Jersey (not forever, we hope) before marrying his sweetheart, Lorrie. In Pubis style, of course, on Halloween.

Yes, long gone are the days when crows would swoop down to steal Vinnie's woolly hair to insulate their cold nests. (Little did they know how flammable it was.) Long gone are the days of the Pubis burger. Hell, even if he was still around, the Galaxy has closed; there truly is nothing left here in New Jersey. (But any place that serves roast beef gravy that tastes like butterscotch pudding does not deserve a place next to fine establishments such as Domino's Pizza and Monster Beverage anyway.)

I remember the day of Pubis's return well. We were all gathered in George's apartment awaiting Vinnie's arrival when I realized I needed batteries for my camera. I decided to drive to 7-Eleven—just a few blocks away—with Ralph. Of course, even a short trip involving Ralph and I can turn into a disaster: I was followed and consequently pulled over in George's parking lot by an officer of the law. (That was due to an inspection sticker the was the WRONG COLOR!! Thanks, DMV.)

After trying to explain that there was a mix-up at DMV for several minutes, the evil group of Crows in George's apartment had gathered on the balcony to oversee the fiasco and laugh. And in the midst of it all, Vinnie pulled into the parking lot, squeezed his way in front of the officer, leaned in my car window, and kissed me.

I suppose soon he'll be sending us pictures of little woolie children... but hey, let's not push him. After all, buddy, "Alphi Chi Rho is here to help."
