More Deerfield Dish

A close Deerfield friend has gone to bat for the other team - no, not in that way.

So I have a confession.

For the last few weeks I've been "seeing" a choate grad. I've tried to redeem myself by making offensive choate remarks on a regular basis. I.e. If we are watching a movie or a tv show and there is a clear hero figure and anti-hero I always refer the hero figure as the DA grad and the anti hero as the choatie. Ie "why is that choatie burning the documents? They clearly belong to that DA grad." (more fun than it sounds). S/he has a Choate coffee mug that I only refer to as a spittoon. Ie "hey can I move your spittoon off the coffee table."

Just wanted to share. It helps me deal with the pain.


This feels almost as awkward as if a friend told me they were becoming a Yankees fan, .......



Or voted for Bush,....

or really liked the Goo Goo Dolls, but worse.

So is there really an alumni "cheer"? Yes, and it apparently really is 'FYC'.
Good Job, [Redacted]

Deerfield Dish

If you have never eaten a "breakfast"muffin in the Greer, crammed for a Bio test during C-Period in the LaTroulle, or drawn ginormous genitalia with Mrs. Carlson in Health Issues, then this will mean nothing:





Brooke, Wally, (spouse?), and Kate W. - '95

Subject: Saw some of your buddies last night...
Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2006

Hi - I saw some guys from your class last night - Doug Scott and Matt Stewart (both '94). And a bunch of people from my class - Kate Whitman, Brooke Goodchild, Wally, Chris Browne, (all '95) etc. at a DA event at the Yale Club. Doug was telling me some story about the two of you getting pulled over and you were wearing something funny - like a suit with zippers or something...Oh - and Greg Walker (fashionable attire '95) produces music videos - I kid you not. And...Liz Peterson ('95?) is a casting director.And Ryan FitzSimons ('92) (is that how you spell his name) was there too - he was interesting - no more blond hair - does some sports marketing thing - has his own company - invited me to a Nascar event.

Nicole Disalvo (DA '95, Cornell '99, Skadden Arps 'life) gossip proves that the officially promoted young alumni events live on. I feared the Deerfield Drinking nights were now the province of the classes of 2000-present. Impressive turnout of DA notables too - leaves me grousing the lack of a LA Yale Club. Bummer.

Culebra Rocks

New Favorite Place: Culebra.

Tiny island of only 2000 locals off the coast of Puerto Rico. Not a single commercial chain business exists, beaches that look like Sandals commercials (without the cheesy music or fakey viagra ad couples), and a plague of mosquitoes. Finally living up to my West Hollywood residencey, the only cars are Jeep Wranglers and I captain'ed one proudly all week. But the best transportation is how you get there.

Other than flying shotgun with Amelia Earhart, it is likely the smallest plane any jews have ever been on – basically a minivan with wings.

Shockingly, we weren't the only Hollywood'ers on the island though - Jake Gyllenhall was the pilot. Can't believe he had time to fit this in during awards season. The tickets are hand written spell your name wrong. In an homage to Dr. Chandler Bong, I was Michael Glabo and I think Melissa Rappaport was "Melissa Rappacho"

They ask how much you weigh and each of the 3 rows of seats has its own door to enter and exit. I now have recommitted myself to the goal of owning a plane. Maybe in time for Christmas 2006.

I wrote a full breakdown of contacts/phone numbers/suggestions/where to find it's for your own Snoopy the dog-ish flight and after flight to Culebra. Warning: It's Really long and may take a minute to load - but worth it.
