Really, Up With People? They came to my high school to sing once, and while I found the music rather forgettable, I remember feeling smitten by some of the boys. I remember sitting in our gymnasium bleachers that evening and mooning over them, actually, lol. With a sort of hopeless romantic yearning.

And then our little drama club got to have a few snacks and sodas with some of them after. I began to suspect that at least some of the guys in Up With People were gay. And then ... well, nothing. But I've never forgotten them. Thanks for your help sending my down memory lane for a few minutes!

Thanks for sharing your memories of your brother. He sounds like a truly remarkable person, a member of our lost generation. Chuck died at about the same time as my best friend Brad, and I'll try to remember Chuck the next time I remember Brad.
