"Millionaires Club, Chicago, 1973. SP Salon Entry for "Best Friend" I was 20. I had waist-length hair in a ponytail and sideburns almost to my chin. I walked past them three times before I had the courage to ask for their picture. They looked quizzical, asked why, I don't remember what I told them, then they TOOK OFF THE GLASSES! I said, "um, I really like the sunglasses, could you leave them on?" and they looked at each other and complied."
