There is a 17-24 year old guy at my gym who looks just like Juan Epstein.
He caught me looking at him the other day and I almost blurted it out. I did not, because
1. I am not sure he would know who I was talking about
2. I am not sure he would think it was a good thing
I think its a good thing. I loved Welcome Back Kotter and Juan Epstein, the Puerto Rican Jew, was a great character. Remember the notes from his mother, all signed “Epstein’s Mom?” I would think its a compliment. And if you wear a 6 inch thick brown Afro hairdo nowadays, you gotta expect some attention.

He he. I think Epstein would be a compliment too!

I saw him again tonite, running on the stairclimber. He was wearing a headband, sort of in a horizontal manner, not a vertical manner…if that makes any sense. More 1970’s Harlem Globetrotter than 1990’s Preppy. It really adds to his look.
