  • By JESSICA SAWREY
    SOMEDAY: “WOULDN’T IT BE NICE” by JESSICA SAWREY (Under the Direction of NATHANIEL KOHN) ABSTRACT What are love, happiness, and youth? Can a song help answer these questions? This thesis explores the connection between the consumption of popular music and the process of performing my self(s), my realities, my desires. Using the work of Roland Barthes, Simon Frith, Richard Schechner, Hélène Cixous and others, this autoethnographic textual performance explores how popular music, with its embodied hegemonic meta-narratives and mechanisms of social control, becomes somehow necessary, even desirable, to the process of performing my everyday life. Through the reflexive writing process in which I interact with my journals, songs, boy friends, theorists, supermarkets, music, mirrors, the mysteries of travel, and my various writerly selves, I strive to deconstruct the elusive affectations of youth, love and happiness as gifted to me in the Beach Boys’ “Wouldn’t It Be Nice.” INDEX WORDS: Autoethnography, Performance, Popular Music, Beach Boys SOMEDAY: “WOULDN’T IT BE NICE” by JESSICA SAWREY B.A., The Ohio State University, 2001 A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The University of Georgia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS ATHENS, GEORGIA 2004 © 2004 Jessica Sawrey All Rights Reserved SOMEDAY: “WOULDN’T IT BE NICE” by JESSICA SAWREY Major Professor: Nathaniel Kohn Committee: Elizabeth Lester Roushanzamir Dwight Brooks Electronic Version Approved: Maureen Grasso Dean of the Graduate School The University of Georgia May 2004 DEDICATION This thesis would not have been possible without the support of my parents.

  • News About 2010 Asa Turkey Reunion
    DAYS OF OUR LIVES #204 A lot of people have asked how I got the nickname of Green Hornet (gH). Well, here’s the way it happened: In June 1966 I arrived at Manzarali Station and was the NCOIC of the exceptional TA section under the leadership of CW2 Eugene C. Cram. We initially lived in Ankara and commuted to Site 23 on the Varan Mercedes buses until our 1963 VW Bug arrived to Istanbul. I can’t remember the exact date, but one morning I came to work and upon entering the TA section immediately spotted the above taped to the back of my chair. I smiled and proceeded to get caught up on the overnite activities and was briefed by the trick chief. After the briefing I asked about the badge on my chair. He didn’t know anything about it and I dropped the subject and just let the badge intact to the chair. In fact – I liked it! To this day I do not know who took the time out from his off-duty time to order the badge and then tape it to my chair. I’ve always suspected that it was Gary Dunnam…. Google Green Hornet for additional information. NEWS ABOUT 2010 ASA TURKEY REUNION During the period 19-26 August 2009 and again 21-25 September we were out sleuthing a place to hold the 2010 ASA Turkey reunion and at the same time hoping to stumble across the absolute perfect place.
