Hello All,
1st of all I want to thank all of you for the well wishes. I will be entering the Hospital shortly for the minimum 3 day evaluation with the heart drug called Tikosyn. I would rather not put on line the exact dates since I have become very security conscious. Saw my Cardiologist for a fleeting moment today and he assured me that I will come through this what ever you want to call it, just fine. He thinks this drug is just what I need to correct some of my remaining heart problems. There was a character on either Jack Benny or Fred Allen's radio program who's last name was Pierce. He used to say to everything "I hope, I hope
I hope I hope it all works out okay". Without repeating all those hopes I feel the same way.

The only things I remember at Bartel-Pritchard Square (really a circle) were The Sanders Movie theater, Lewnies Ice Cream Parlor and attached, Lewnies Bar & Grill. Across the street (PPW) was an entrance to Prospect Park. ( there was another Lewnies Ice Cream Parlor on 9th St and PPW. They had a big fresh roasted peanut stand in the store. My Father on occasion would walk me up 9th St and stop at Lewnies. buy a bag of Peanuts and we would sit on a park bench inside the 9th St entrance and feed the Squirrels!) In the middle of BP Square was the big Trolley stop for the McDonald Ave. (Coney Island Trolley) Smith Street Trolley and there was another but I am not sure if it was the 7th Ave Trolley or the Ft Hamilton Pkwy Trolley. The other two corners I am drawing a blank for. There very well could have been a Socony-Mobile gas station with the Pegasus sign. They were all over the place. Remember, Socony stood for Standard Oil Co of NY. I believe they had to spin off Mobil during the Monopoly hearings. How many of you remember "Dino" the Dinosaur on the Sinclair Stations.

Hi everyone...  Youtube on the Trolley  ENJOY
