Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

RALPHIE TROCCHIO WROTE:
My wife family has a tradition, oppose to clanging pots, they collect old dishes during the year and every new year's eve, each person throws a dish for good luck. What a mess, lol

I never heard that one before but sure sounds like fun, My kids would love that !! I would too ! COMING TO YOUR HOUSE FOR 2009 !!!

Banging the pots are a tradition in my house. Even when the kids reached the age where it was not so COOL to do such a silly thing I told them no matter what you have to welcome that New Year in .... always.
Of course (when they were older ) because they saw more neighbors with pots not to mention JELLO SHOTS , it is now COOL.

Except for OLD GOAT he has no problem being surrounded by ladies, infact he even knows how to get to our hearts :salut: with his great stories.

Suzie: I worked in Bushwick, on Morgan Avenue.

Carol: You really need to get in touch with my sister, so she can invite you and Peter over for dinner one night. You would have a great time there and you can show Peter the house. I told Marilyn and she thinks it's a good idea.

I really have to call my brother. I don't know where he is these days. I don't think he is out of the country!!!
