From News Max Media - 03/03/07 - "Tips and

Don't take your heart for granted. The following are some ways to keep your
heart beating strong. Your heart will thank you.
From John "J." Harrison ('58) of GA
- 03/05/07 - "Newsletter Input":
OOOOH,
I really liked this one!
Thanks so much!
From One of my
Famous Marines -
Herb Hice of MI, who
served in the Pacific Theater
during WWII - 03/05/07 - "Dear Carol, Check out this Bottle Cat.":
Thanks for this adorable little kitty, Herbie Darlin'!
And thanks, too, for all you've done to keep my spirits up, even when my mind
and body were down.
Your picture reminded me of one my own, a particular favorite of mine.
Nephi was a feral kitten we found and had to rescue. After we took him
to the vet and relieved him of several hundred fleas, I wrapped him in soft
diapers and fed him on a strict schedule with an eye dropper, just like a
newborn baby. He grew to be one of the most beautiful and absolutely
wildest cats ever placed on the planet.
This photo was snapped while he was still quite new. I love it for several reasons. For one, Nephi still looks innocent (looks can be so deceiving). My mama, the hoot, had very recently suffered a stroke, of which no one was really aware, even though the symptoms were rather obvious. Even so, this is a great picture of her. She always claimed to dislike animals, but anyone who knew her understood what a colossal whopper of a fib that was, as this image clearly shows. And the look of wonder in my little girl's face has always melted my heart. Thanks
again, Sweetie!

From My Niece, Shari, of VA - 03/05/07 - "Wow! This is a fine example of team effort.":
WOWZERONI!!! And not only is it
artistically beautiful, it's also one of the strangest things I've ever seen!
The fact that no one screamed and freaked out as their space was being invaded
really impressed me, too! Thanks, Lady!
From My Niece, Shari, of VA - 03/05/07 - "Amazing Bowling Trick and Dumb Criminals":
Thanks, Lady!
From Cheryl Mays Howard ('66) of VA - 03/05/07:
Well, I was feeling better,
Cheryl, but then suddenly I got worse - much,
much worse. My fever escalated big time, and all my symptoms
multiplied, and I'm as weak as a kitten. But thanks,
Lady!
It's gotta get better soon, right?!?
From Linda Lane Lane ('64) of VA -
03/05/07 - "Glad you are feeling better.":
We just returned from Tampa. I didn't realize you were
still sick or I would have called again. I can certainly see how you would
stay sick in these forever changing temperatures. I miss the wonderful fresh
strawberries and oranges we were able to get in Plant City. I don't miss the
hours spent on grandchildren doing homework, the florist before Valentine's
Day and the rising gas prices. I don't remember ever spending 3 hours doing
homework at night in my entire life. Spelling list of 28 words in the 3rd
grade in both English and Spanish. I bet I couldn't even pass Kindergarten
if I had to at this point. Any way, it's great to be home with the cat!
Take care of your self.
Linda L. Lane
I suppose it's just as well you didn't call again, Linda. As a matter of fact, I had planned to call you, but as my spirits improved tremendously, my physical health plummeted incrementally. I seem only to have a few lucid moments a day, I can barely talk at all, and I'm too exhausted to do much of it anyway. Mostly, I sleep.
But I do remember hours of homework, starting in sixth grade, but that was usually due to my own procrastination. Had I done a little at a time, it no doubt would have been more comfortable for everyone in the household.
Thanks, Miss Linda!
From My Niece, Shari, of VA - 03/05/07 - "Spring Forward":
Did ya know?
MARCH 11th-----Spring Forward
Beginning in 2007, most of the United States begins Daylight Saving Time at 2:00 a.m. on the second Sunday in March
and reverts to standard time on the first Sunday in November. In the U.S., each time zone switches at a different time.
In the European Union, Summer Time begins and ends at 1:00 a.m. Universal Time (Greenwich Mean Time). It begins
the last Sunday in March and ends the last Sunday in October. In the EU, all time zones change at the same moment.
GROAN!!! Why don't they just pick a time and stay with it all year?!? Sigh.....
Thanks, Shari!

I Loved You Once in Silence
Music by Frederick Lowe, Lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner - for Camelot
(Julie Andrews)
I loved you once in silence
And mis'ry was all I knew.
Trying so to keep my love from showing,
All the while not knowing you loved me too.
Yes, loved me in lonesome silence;
Your heart filled with dark despair.
Thinking love would flame in you forever,
And I'd never, never know the flame was there.
Then one day we cast away our secret longing;
The raging tide we held inside would hold no more.
The silence at last was broken!
We flung wide our prison door.
Ev'ry joyous word of love was spoken.
And now there's twice as much grief,
Twice the strain for us;
Twice the despair,
Twice the pain for us
As we had known before.
And after all had been said,
Here we are, my love,
Silent once more,
And not far, my love,
From where we were before.
