Dear Friends and Schoolmates, 

   Today's midi is probably a karaoke version rather than the full score, but I rather like it anyway.

   WILDEST GIGGLES!!! I feel your pain, Sweetie! Thanks, David!

    From Joe Madagan ('57) of FL -  01/29/08:

Maybe you should have been in   Johnny Mitchell's ('57 - of VA) class and received better instruction and you would be swimming for fun today.

   I somehow doubt that Johnny could have been nearly as patient with me as you were; your instruction was quite excellent.
 

   Thanks again, Joe!

From Bob Cook ('67) of  VA - 01/29/09:

   Hmmm. I would tend to think that   Marty Whitmore McCoy and Melissa Moody know more about the whereabouts of your classmates than anyone else, Bob. Why doncha drop Marty a line at marty.mccoy@vectec.org ?

    From Jean Poole Burton ('64) of RI - 01/29/08 - "Tell     Joe Madagan (and those other Floridians...)":

That we in RI have not seen our lawns since New Year's...one snowstorm after another for about four weeks now.  Luckily I like the snow and even like shoveling the snow!!!  We are having a real New England Winter this year...no power outages so far, thankfully!  

Love, Jeanb

   Well, THAT'S good! Stay warm! Thanks, Jean!

  From Brenda Amos Williams ('62) of VA - 01/29/09:

Hi Carol,

Glad you're BACK!! Hope everything is working itself out for you and your family. Thanks for all you do.

Sad news in our class of 62.  Patsy Floyd Pride lost one of her twin sons on Monday.  Obit. in Daily Press Thursday, funeral on Friday afternoon 4pm.  Also, website for her son, Joseph Keith Pride online at:

If anyone is interested in sharing with Pat and Bob, this is the website that you can visit.

Thanks to everyone that is sending donations and bringing food.

Brenda Williams
Typhoon Forever

Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.

   OH, NOOO!!! I am so sorry to hear this heartbreaking news! Please extend to Patsy and Bob our deepest sympathies - and thank you for letting me know what my eyes refused to believe, Brenda.

    From Linda Lane Lane ('64) of VA - 01/29/08 - "Welcome Back":

I sure have missed you.  This will be a good move for you and        Paul (Harty - Bardolph HS, IL - '61 - of IL).  Personally, I wish you weren't so far away.  When we moved to Williamsburg 12 years ago, I swore the next move would be to the nursing home or funeral home.  After spending a month in Florida, I'm about to rethink that decision.  Maybe, we could become snowbirds.  If you get close to Williamsburg, call me and I will pick you up for a long visit.
 

Love, Linda L. Lane

   Thanks, Linda-Linda - for everything! I have felt mightily disconnected myself!

   From F.A. Saunders (Hampton HS - '64) of VA - 01/29/08 - "       Don Jett (NNHS / Warwick HS - '60 - of VA)":

   I just LOVE the reconnection stories! Thanks, F.A.!

  From Christine Wilson Starkman ('68) of CA - 01/29/08:

    EEK!!! Thanks, Chris, I had almost forgotten!

   Okay, the NEW address for donations is: nnhs65@gmail.com.  This is now linked on the main page, and will appear on each regular Newsletter, beginning with this issue (notice the new look below).

        From David Whitley ('67) of VA - 01/29/08 -"Husband Down":

A husband and wife are shopping in their local Wal-Mart. The husband picks up a case of Budweiser and puts it in their cart.

'What do you think you're doing?' asks the wife.

'They're on sale, only $10 for 24 cans,' he replies.

'Put them back, we can't afford them,' demands the wife, so they continue shopping.

A few aisles further, the woman picks up a $20 jar of face cream and puts it in the basket.

'What do you think you're doing?' asks the husband.

'It's my face cream. It makes me look beautiful,' replies the wife.
 
Her husband retorts: 'So does 24 cans of Budweiser, and it's half the price.'

Shortly thereafter on the PA system: 'Cleanup needed on aisle 25, we have a husband down.'


Now that there is funny. I don't care who you are!

   Thanks, Gorgeous!

Wherever You Will Go

- Aaron Kamin
(b. 10 Aug 1977)

(The Calling), 2001

So lately, I've been wonderin'
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
And between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own

[Chorus:]
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

And maybe, I'll find out
The way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
Well I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you

[Chorus]

Runaway with my heart
Runaway with my hope
Runaway with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart and your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time

[Chorus]

If I could turn back time
I'll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'll go wherever you will go
