Just heard from Billy. Email me at AOL and I'll give you his address.

I too found this post by accident....WOW did it bring back memories. Thank you everyone for sharing your stories about the terrific times of the 70's. I was the bar maid at the Lollypop around 1972-74. Never really worked....it was like always being at a party. After work on Fridays my friends and I would walk over to second floor for some heavy duty dancing....God do I miss those wonderful times. I lived on Drake Ave by Pelham Road....who remembers the deli on Drake Ave? Great place to get the after school snacks. Hope to hear from some of you.

Hi Rita

I worked next door at the little Main street cinema during those days for a while and yes that deli...tiny place with a counter on the right and a steel corrugated thing they would pull down at closing?

What's he doing? I haven't seen him since I got out of college. I heard that lollypop had a reunion this past Oct ...... has anyone anything about that?
BTW, enjoy your BBQ...nice day today.

Who remembers Chilly Billy?

You guys must have been in college while I was in high school. The years you mention, 72-74 I was working right near the Main St Cinema and the Lollypop in Jack's Army and Navy Store. If I remember correctly, it was right smack inbetween both places, wasn't it?

I have mentioned this before but no one remembered....there was a tiny little boutique next door to the Main st cinema...older lady with blond hair and her daughter.....I went out with her for a little while, the daughter not the mother wise guys....I cant even remember her name.

Bet you remember "Babe" Tripodi....he was the manager at Loews across the street.

I don't remember the boutique. I remember Jack's, the Cinema and the Tuxedo place going towards Maple Avenue.

I remember that as well....Jacks, Town theatre and the Tuxedo rental joint....around the corner and down a bit a friend of mine from the Bronx who used to be on White Plains road opened a fishing supply store...John Palmeiri was his name.

Hey NR Guy. don't feel so bad.....I can't remember the names of half the guys I dated!

Do you remember the deli across the street from Jacks? I want to say it was Carouso's, but think I may be wrong. We used to get a 16oz coke and buttered wedge for $0.25.

I remember a Caruso's closer to Pintard ave where they had a sandwich named after Chuck Zito...Mrs Caruso was a blond...I also remember that deli that you speak of across the street near Meateria where I used to get a Yoo Hoo and a buttered roll...was it Caruso's then?....maybe...I dont know.

It was owned by Pat Salerno whose son played football with BS and worked in the store. Real nice family.
