1992, Woodlawn High School, Woodlawn, Illinois...40 members in our class that year. As I look back and reminisce, several of these people cross my mind from time to time. Some I see and talk to quite frequently, most however, are just memories in my joggled brain. But ONE person in particular constantly comes forward from my past, begging to be remembered and a mystery involving him to be solved.
MICHAEL LOGAN!
Where the hell is Michael Logan? This is a constant running question within JMH. Why? Because it simply appears as if he just vanished off of the face of the earth! In today's world, that is simply unheard of with all of the social media and Internet possibilities. But that is what appears to have happened. Michael Logan is simply a ghost.
Michael was a quiet and all around nice guy in high school. Blazing red hair, always smiling, and extremely quiet, Michael sort of floated under the radar through his last year of school. A mathematic genius, a master of sleeping in classes and not getting caught, and virtually unbeatable at arm wrestling, Michael was sort of an Everyman's friend.
One of the most vibrant memories I have of Michael was his attendance to the Metallica concert at Carbondale with us. Michael chose to drive and when he was asked to follow another car out of the Hardees parking lot, Michael just did that. In a Nissan four door sedan, Michael went off roading down the hill and over parking lot stoppers not wanting to miss the lead car. Typical Michael Logan fashion.
Here are the clues that we have...
Clue #1: Michael use to live in the blue house directly behind Woodlawn Grade School. I did find out that his mother sold that home shortly after Michael graduated high school. Why? Where did she go? Where did he go? Hmmmm....
Clue #2: Michael use to work at Country Fair at the mall complex in Mt. Vernon. He was there until they shut down. After their closing, he vanished. He could be working in a grocery store near you!
Clue #3: Michael has a tattoo of a black panther on his upper arm (can't remember if it was his right or left) that the tail descends down the forearm. Quite noticeable.
Clue #4: Rumor is he joined a branch of the military. Not sure how accurate this detail is.
This is ALL we know. Please...JMH would love to contact Michael and speak with him. It has been over 20 years since we have since this guy and we would love just to touch base with him. If you have ANY information on his whereabouts, please comment on the Facebook post or message me or Matt Hails.
Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, Roswell, and now...Where the hell is Michael Logan? This is one mystery of the universe that can be solved!
I'm thinking...
JM
