Missing You by John Waites was a favorite of my ex-girlfriend Isabelle, she really liked this song, and whenever I hear it, I immediately think of her, along with several other top hits of the time that Isabelle and I were going out togeter back in 1983 / 84 when I lived in the jumping East Village of 1980s New York.
 
Those were some great times. I was in my 20s and I thought I could conquer the World back then, and dating a top High Fashion Model who was with Ford Mosels and was also a House Model for Oscar de la Renta sure didn't hurt none. Yes the East Village abdd downtown New York was jumping then. This was the time of Madonna and the major art scene of Graffitti Artsist like, Keith Haring , Jean Michele Basquiat , Francesco Clemente , and otheer , who were among the hottest and biggest selling artist in the world at the time, including Andy Warhol who was still living and who took the young Basquit under his wings and even collaberated on a couple of projects together.
 
Yes, bacck then, I really felt as I could conquer the World. I was young and full of piss and vinegar as they say. I felt as though I could walk through brick walls. I woarked two jobs, I worked hard ad Played Hard, going out to the top Night Clubs of the day, like: Area, Danceteria, Carmelitas, Underchine, The Milk Bar, Palladium, all the hot bars, restuarants, and a lot of good private parties, a few of which were up at Isabelle 's apartment on 87th Street, sipping Champagne and eating Caviar which Isabelle could never get enough of, and she'd always bring back tins of the stuff from Petrossian ever time she did runway shows for the Pret di Port in Paris for the likes of designers Yves Saint Laurent , and Oscar de la Renta.
 
Wow, I started off talking about how this song by John Waite was one of Isabelle's favvorites, and I go off on a tagent on the 1980s, the East Village and the downtown New York art and party scene. Well they all do tie together you see. That's where Maddonna got started with Jellybean Benitez and others, dancing at Dancteria and Lucky Strike, private parties and what-not. She had her first Top 10 Hit with Holiday, although her first two singles Everybody and Burning Up did have pretty good sucess. Yes I was having quite a good time in the 80s, going out with girls, working, and playing with friends like my buddies Raoul, Drew, Jay, and my Buddy Bobby Martinez who was one of Madonna's famous Puerto Rican Boy Toys (I kid you not).
 
Well, back to some of the other music and Isabelle's favorite songs, like Hold Me Now by The Thompson Twins, TRUE by Spandau Ballet, Missing You and a slew of others. This is when MTV started out and Isabelle just loved that station. I remember spending whole nights with her drinking champagne and watching MTV as isabelle taped the videos on a VHS Recorder to make tapes of MTV Music Videos of Michael Jackson , David Bowie , The Police , and other artist to bring down to her friends and family in Caracas , Venezuela when she went for visits two times a year (her native country).
 
 
To be Continued  ...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
PIPER-HEIDSIECK
 
 
Whenever I see a bottle of PIPER HEIDSIECK CHAMPAGNE, it always makes me think of Isabelle and the time she called me up at 10 in the morning and asked me if I wanted to come over and if I could stop and get a bottle of Champagne along the way. "Ah the Good ol Days. Champagne and Caviar at 11 in The Morning," it's not a bad way to start the day.

EME Magazine .. October 2014
 
 
 

I met Oscar de la Renta on November 5, 1985. At that time I was already in the last year of the race in Parsons and that particular day would be the presentation of his spring 1986 collection in the auditorium of 560 de la Séptima. Avenue in New York.

 

He had been selected along with other classmates to work in the backstage helping with the organization and dressing the models before their departure on the catwalk.

As soon as I arrived and he saw me he said "You speak Spanish and I want you to get dressed and help Isabel", referring to Isabel Oduber , Venezuelan and house muse and model. 
I could not believe it, so he took me to the rack where his suits hung. There were exactly eight, twice what the other models would carry, among which were the great international mannequins of the time, the same ones that the Valentino's and Saint Laurents wore in Paris. I remember in particular Dalma, Betty Lago, Kirat, Marpessa Hennink, Amalia Vairelli and Nubia, another Venezuelan who was Lagerfeld's muse in Chanel, among so many other famous models.

JOHNLENNON was MURDERED

by The PIECE of SHIT MARK DAVID CHAPMAN

December 8th 1980

In front of his home The Dakota

On West 72nd Street

NEW YORK NY




Words of the Piece of Shit Mark David Chapman

"I JUST SHOT JOHN LENNON"






This is a PIECE of SHIT

Its name is MARK DAVID CHAPMAN



Yes, that’s right, Mark Daivid Chapman is a No Good Piece of Shit who should rot in Hell. “What? You say, who is Markd David Chapman?” Well for those of you who’ve never hear of this no good Piece of Shit, he’s the piece of shit or murdered John Lennon. Who’s John Lennon you say? Oh my God? Yes, many know, but I’m sure there might be some young people who may have never heard of him. Well for one, he was one member of The Fabe Four, the band known as The Beatles, widely considered one of the greatest bands of all-time, and certainly many people would say the greatest and most influencial bands of the 20th Century, and even now39 years after John’s death, the Beatles have produced some of the greatest music that is listened to since the recordings made in the 1960s, and some of the greatest music that people listen to (thanks to reccordings) in the 21st Century, a Century that has hardly produced any good music at all, but only God Awful garbage, that peopel have the nerve to call music. “It’s not,” it’s shit, I’m so sorry to say, but back to the great John Lennon, former Beatle and then astonishing solo artist who was prodcuing some of the greatest music of the past two centuries even recording on the day he died when he was assasinated in front of his house ( The Dakota) by the no good Piece of Shit bastard, No Good Motherfucker piece of garbage Mark David Chapman on Monday December 8th 1980 for no good reason other that he (Mark David Chapman) is a No Good Piece of Shit Miserable Piece of Shit no good Fucking Lowlife Fuck. “Am I making myself clear here? I hate that no good Piece of Shit Lowest Form of Life Mark David Chapman who is rotting in a prison for murdering John Lennon, leaving his young son Sean Lennon fatherless, and his wife Yoko a widow all because the no good Piece of Shit couldn’t deal with his shitty life, why did he have to kill John Lennon? Why? They say that he (Chapman) said that he was frustrated with John Lennon’s lifestyle and public statements. “So you shoot the guy, you no good fuck?” They say that that piece of Shit Mark David Chapman had delusions related to Holden Caufield in JD Salinger Cather in The Rye. “So you kill John Lennon, you no good Piece of Shit Asshole (Chapman). Why, you no good motherfucker?” I hope I’m making myself clear hear? “Mark David Chapman is a no good Piece of Shit.” He murdered John Lennon.


John Lennon was a English Musician, member of The Beatles, born Liverpool, England October 9, 1940.

Melania asked me to say something, the  respect she has for our country, the love she has for our country. She is doing well. I'm also doing well.
