Gawd Murphy, you're older than dirt. I din't even get in the water until 58'.

Lord have mercy, Fats, this Blog-O-Rama is titled San-O Daze. There's nothing about the 'history of surfing' with San Onofre. Otis Chandler and Jim Galloon don't count. Billy Ming, nobody at treasured San Onofre knows who he his. Well, pawn my soul, we should thank Murphy for re-introducing us to our sport. As Corky might say, "COWABUNGA"!

Murph, when checking your story, how many older fellows do you think remember 'Ole Ming'. We know you do.

'Ten Over', I have no idea of who those 71 year olds are. I checked with Tubes, he said Vorhees lived in a house on the beach at
17th, hence the 17th St. Seals. He mentioned Vorhees did have a nickname 'Hog'. Can you guess why?

Thought HOG was Bob Hogan. Anyone else want to comment?

That too, but Hog was Hogans nick name when I was a surf matt guy when this pic was taken.

Crabb, are you familiar with the word paranthetical. It refers to sentences contain-ing 'but' in it.

Tutor, as in, Jole? Mr. English person? ( ) Those are nice?

Crab the brackets are are paranthasis, 'but' is where paranthetical comes in.
