From Linda May Bond Crayton ('66) of VA - 01/12/10 - "Leaders-of-the
pack":
Carol,
This was, for me, the best newsletter, ever. The talent,
intelligence, sensitivity and passion shown by
Paul (Harty -
Bardolph HS, IL - '61 - of IL) and
Joyce (Lawrence Cahoon - '65 - of VA) was, for me, so perfect in
what I feel but cannot express. The picture never more clear than I
could paint. The words more perfect than I could ever even look up.
You are blessed, Carol.
I love you for being there.
Linda May ' 66
I am contemplating whether to retire at my earliest possible date from NH state service-- May 1, 2010-- or my next birthday (Nov 27, 2010, actual retirement date would be Dec 1) or any year thereafter.... there are financial and other considerations, surely-- but I know some of the folks I knew are already retired-- and I'm asking-- what do you retirees wish you'd considered? If you had it to do over, would you retire earlier? Or later? What do you love about being retired? What do you wish was different?
Thanks,
Domi!
"Anyone? Anyone??"

- "Lessons for Living":
Lessons for Living
1. Respect others, even if they don’t respect you. Later in life they may remember that respect.
2. Love with your whole heart. It may be broken, but you can’t say that you never loved.
3. Treat animals with kindness, and it will be repaid to you a hundredfold.
4. Be honest with the people you love. Honesty really IS the best policy.
5. Admit your mistakes; it shows you are human.
6. Learn from your mistakes, but don’t dwell on them. Negative thinking will only make you depressed — and that’s not good for you or those around you.
7. Tell your family often that you love them. You never know when it will be the last time you get to say it.
8. Never tell others that their dreams are stupid or dumb. Each of us is entitled to our dreams. Who are we to say they won’t come true?
9. Realize that the only person you can change is yourself.
10. Be thankful for everything you have. Knowing you are blessed isn’t arrogant or cocky if you’re truly thankful for your blessings.
Thanks, Paul!

From ArcaMax Jokes - 01/13/09:
Repair Estimate
When my printer's type
began to grow faint, I called a local repair shop where a friendly
man informed me that the printer probably needed only to be cleaned.
Because the store charged $50 for such cleanings, he told me, I
might be better off reading the printer's manual and trying the job
myself.
Pleasantly surprised by his candor, I asked, "Does your boss know
that you discourage business?"
"Actually it's my boss's idea," the employee replied sheepishly. "We
usually make more money on repairs if we let people try to fix
things themselves first."

Ordinary Lives
Recorded by the
Bee Gees,
1989
There'll be one small light all over the world tonight.
The search will go on for the one.
It was love with no name
and we glowed in the sun.
There was one small dream,
incredible highs and lows,
what little we knew living ordinary lives (lives).
Made a dream for you, living ordinary lives (lives).
Ordinary people living ordinary lives.
Ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
The clock on the wall keeps moving,
time stands still,
no matter how the dice may fall,
someone else always gets to call the number.
Say goodbye cruel world.
No pity no pain tonight.
Whatever the cost all is lost.
If this is love with no name,
then it's all in the stars.
Whether it's wrong (wrong) or right,
there's no one to blame no (no) lies.
What else could we do
living ordinary lives (lives)?
Made a dream for you,
living ordinary lives (lives).
Oh, oh. We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people.
What else could we do,
living ordinary lives (lives)?
Made a dream for you,
living ordinary lives (lives).
Oh, oh. We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
