reconnecting

a recent exchange with my best friend in college who i talk to about 3 times a year but with whom i still maintain a strangely strained subconscious connection -- like a synapse jammed open. together we are trying to remember the name of a guy i dated freshman year. the final line is the clencher. god love him.

Wyatt's last name was?

(Jed and Wyatt)

If anyone remembers, it's you. You have such a great memory for this stuff.

You know, I have been trying to come up with that. Was it Portz?

No, it was something more common, wasn't it? They were so white bread. Portz actually sounds like it has some history. For some reason, I'm thinking Urkel. But that's not right.

Tell me if you think of it. I want to Google those schlamazels.

I know! :) But they were Urkel-esque don't you think? He definitely wore his pants high (Wyatt).

Do you remember their ethnicity? I don't think it was anything obvious, but it might give us a clue.
