Subject: vending engineering


For those of you who may have studied engineering ( not me)  you know that its very complicated and involves a good deal of attention to details

There are three engineering projects that were accomplished in Chicago  during  the last 100 or so years and I want to list them in ascending order, based  on their degree of difficulty  complexity and ingenuity

The first, was the reversal of the flow of the Chicago River.  
As science got better, the second was accomplished, the building of the atomic bomb

Finally the most difficult and daunting  accomplishment

 Two vending engineers, Harlan Grabowsky and Gary Tuch  were able by using complex psychological  theorem, to force Bernie Lasinsky to show them his vending receipt, verifying that he indeed sold 6 loads of peanuts  that night at Sox


Getting  Bernie to holler  "Look ! Look!   Look ya fat tub a shit!!   If I tell ya I did 6 loads  I did six loads.  Would I bullshit you?"  was  the easy part  since Bernie was always the first to have a kind word for everyone

Now cut the bullshit

Subject: And Bernie Just Says "I'm Curious"

Submitted for your approval. Circa 1973.  The setting is down right field line 
  at Old Comiskey, where the vendors are waiting for John to give out the items.  
  Bernie, Tidd and Irving are already there, when Gary Shulman, Nerd and I walked 
  in the little doorway.  At this point, I pressed the record button on my tape 
  recorder.
  
  As we enter, Nerd is "serenaded" as you will hear. A vendor who went to Sullivan 
  
  with Gary and I, Allen Gilbert makes reference to those days when he greets me 
  as "hi old Division buddy"   Division was like a home room where you got all of 
  your important messages before going off to class.
  
  If you listen carefully, Irving will mumble something about....Jewish Holidays.
  
  There are some comments that sound like they come from Glick & Lane?  (Help me 
  here with your feedback)
  
  But,  the funniest part is that Bernie had been bothering Nerd about where his 
  mother works?  To this day, I still don't know what that was about, (maybe Gary 
  or someone can elaborate for us?)    When Nerd asks "What do ya want to know 
  fer?" Bernie just says "I'm curious"    The irony here is that within 3 years 
  Bernie would again wonder about Nerd and his mom: but this was about "where did 
  Nerd put da money"  after Mark's mom died in '75 from getting the wrong medicine 
  
  in the hospital
  
  Another highlight is Johnny Skweres who gets mixed up, and calls me Larry!  When 
  
  asked who is he talking about, you'll here him say "Reimer  or is it 
  Weimer?"     Could it be possible that Johnny was mixing me up with another 
  friend from Sullivan who vended at that time:  Larry Weiner?   Guess we'll never 
  
  know for sure.
  
  NOTE:  Due to poor sound quality, it might be easier to understand everything a 
  little better if you turn your speakers down which will help eliminate some 
  distortion
  
  Anyway, enjoy this golden moment from our past
