Oh my gosh!  Someone else had a crush on Johnny!  Well, I also had a 
thing for Ponyboy and Dallas, to tell you the truth, but Johnny was 
the best.  The good thing about having a crush on a fictional 
character from a book is that people think you are studious because 
you keep reading a book over and over, when in fact, you are in a 
total fantasy world.  BTW, I got ahold of The Outsiders and read it 
about 6 months ago.  It is still just as good.

I also had a big thing for Michael Jackson right before he became a 
big solo star and had all of those, um, enhancements.  I guess that 
dates me a bit, huh?
