From Joyce Lawrence Cahoon ('65) of
VA - 03/04/08 - "Husband's gift":
Husband's gift
A husband walks into Victoria's Secret to purchase a sheer negligee for his
wife. He is shown several possibilities that range from $250 to $500 in
price, the more sheer, the higher the price.
Naturally, he opts for the most sheer item, pays the $500, and takes it
home.
He presents it to his wife and asks her to go upstairs, put it on, and model
it for him. Upstairs, the wife thinks, 'I have an idea. It's so sheer that
it might as well be nothing. I won't put it on, but I'll do the modeling
naked, return it tomorrow, and keep the $500 refund for myself.
So she appears naked on the balcony and strikes a pose.
The husband says, 'Good Grief! You'd think for $500, they'd at least iron
it!'
He never heard the shot.
Funeral on Thursday at Noon.
Closed coffin.....
Thanks,
Joyce!

From F.A.
Saunders (Hampton HS - '64) of VA - 03/05/08 - "Original Club":
The Original Club was located at the end of 33rd or 32nd Street at the very end. Just a couple of blocks from the Apprentice School building on West Avenue. It was adjacent to the fence of the shipyard. When you looked out the windows you looked right into the yard. When I went there I was attending Warwick Jr. High School, and you had to have an invitation to go to the sorority dance. They used to refer to them as bids for some reason. I'm sure someone who reads this went also back then. Seems to me the Original Club was tied in with the shipyard in some way, but not certain on that. Anyway, I appreciate your posting this.
Thanks, F.A.!
"Anyone? Anyone?"
From My Niece, Shari, of VA -
03/05/08 - "Purpose of Life? Interview with Rick Warren - Interesting!":
http://scriptures.lds.org/en/2_cor/9
http://scriptures.lds.org/en/ps/72
First, in spite of all the money coming in, we would not change our lifestyle
one bit. We made no major purchases. Second, about midway through last year, I
stopped taking a salary from the church.
Third, we set up foundations to fund an initiative we call The Peace Plan to
plant churches, equip leaders, assist the poor, care for the sick, and educate
the next generation.
Fourth, I added up all that the church had paid me in the 24 years since I
started the church, and I gave it all back. It was liberating to be able to
serve God for free.
We need to ask ourselves: Am I going to live for possessions? Popularity? Am I
going to be driven by pressures? Guilt? Bitterness? Materialism? Or
am I going to be driven by God's purposes (for my life)?
When I get up in the morning, I sit on the side of my bed and say, God, if I
don't get anything else done today, I want to know You more and love You
better. God didn't put me on earth just to fulfill a to-do list. He's more
interested in what I am than what I do.
That's why we're called human beings, not human doings.
Happy moments, PRAISE GOD.
Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.
Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.
Painful moments, TRUST GOD.
Every moment, THANK GOD.
Thank you so much,
Shari!

Yakety Yak
Words and Music By: Jerry Leiber
and Mike Stoller
(The Coasters)
Take out the papers and the trash
Or you don't get no spendin' cash
If you don't scrub that kitchen floor
You ain't gonna rock and roll no more
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
Just finish cleanin' up your room
Let's see that dust fly with that broom
Get all that garbage out of sight
Or you don't go out Friday night
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
You just put on your coat and hat
And walk yourself to the Laundromat
And when you finish doin' that
Bring in the dog and put out the cat
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
<chiefly sax instrumental>
Don't you give me no dirty looks
Your father's hip; he knows what cooks
Just tell your hoodlum friend outside
You ain't got time to take a ride
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
Yakety yak, yakety yak
Yakety yak, yakety yak
Yakety yak, yakety yak
