I tried to send you an e-card but they would not let me sign in...apparently I had an account at one time, which I do not remember...but nevertheless they did not like my new password...dontcha love it???  And I did not have your new mailing address...so...HAPPY VALENTINE'S from the Lady in Red...hugs and kisses!

   OH, yeah - I've been playing Fun and Games with Computers for several days now myself - but thanks, Jean, this works just as well! Happy Valentine's Day to you, too!

   And my mailing address is (or should be!) on the bottom of every email announcement I send you, as well as near the bottom of every Newsletter, and about halfway down the main opening page of the website itself:

  From Fuzzy Turner ('63) of NC - 01/05/09 - "For 2009":

We make a living by what we get; We make a life by what we give.

There comes a point in your life when you realize 
who matters, who never did,
who won't anymore...
and who always will!!!

So, don't worry so much about the people from your past,
there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

And remember: 'Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.'

   Thank you, Fuzzy!

    From Frances Goodson Wang ('65) of MD - 01/14/09 - "THE BROWNS lyrics - The Old Lamplighter #1 song the day I was born":

This is the top rated song on the day I was born. I will send a link where anyone can look up the song. It fits me. Just make the lamplighter a woman.

   Oh, this is so cool! Thanks, Frances!

    From Brownie Shaffer Haracivet ('62) of VA - 01/14/09 - "Who knew this?"

Duh!!!!!

Don't you even try and act like you all ready knew this.

I had to go into the kitchen and check this out for myself. Whoever looks at the end of your aluminum foil box? You know when you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box. Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over. The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.

Well, I would like to share this with you. Yesterday I went to throw out an empty Reynolds foil box and for some reason I turned it and looked at he end of the box. And written on the end it said, Press here to lock end. Right there on the end of the box is a tab to lock the roll in place. How long has this little locking tab been there? I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too. I then looked at a box of Saran wrap and it had one too! I can't count the number of times the Saran wrap roll has jumped out when I was trying to cover something up.

I'm sharing this with my friends. I hope I'm not the only person that didn't know about this.

   WOW! Thanks, Brownie! Think of all the irritation we can save ourselves in the future!

      From My Niece, Shari, of VA - 01/23/09 - "crazy dogs":
