When I die, they say l'll go to heaven! But I would rather go where my friends are. joel first came to Ashbury in 1974 and has prospered as a senior member of the boarding community. joel's myriad extracurricular activities have given him a reputation of great ability at everything he does, he enjoys football, tennis, water- skiing, alpine skiing, baseball and fishing, and cuts a fine figure on the dance floor. The high point of each week, for the boarders at least, may well have been joel blow-drying his hair, who is to say what the impact of this ritual was on the awed crowd of assembled yokels? He intends to take an arts course at either McGill or Concordia and would like to study fashion in New York after that. I would like to know what this whole show is all about before its out.
