From Linda Boatright Fitzgerald ('66) of FL - 04/07/10 - "RE:
GIANT":

Just flipped the TV from the NCAA tourney at half time to
TBS and found GIANT
playing. I hit it right as they were playing the theme .... I flashed back
to Saunders Stadium and our night
practices .... lined up on the goal line, drum and herald trumpets blasting
the fanfare, then the
tenor drums doing the final 3 beats before we stepped off. I loved
that NNHS Typhoon Marching Senior Band .... there
has never been another band like those of the 60's that
JP produced. I sat here with chill bumps
listening to G I A N T > bet you would too.

Yes, and I remember being in the band when we did it. It was a long time ago. At work, they just put up the senior pictures of our team on a big screen TV above the reception desk. I had a lot of comments about mine. Since I keep a curly perm now, they were amazed at my hair. They wanted to know if I could “do it again.” I just laughed and told them to keep looking at the picture. It’s nice to still be here, though. I may be coming to Virginia later this year, perhaps September or October, depending on my kids and what their plans are for vacations. I’ll keep you all updated, so perhaps we can all get together again.
Have a blessed day today,

FINALLY:
From ArcaMax Jokes - 04/08/10:*************
Skeleton In The Closet
A very large, old, building was being torn down in Chicago to make room for a
new skyscraper. Due to its proximity to other buildings it could not be imploded
and had to be dismantled floor by floor.
While working on the 49th floor, two construction workers found a skeleton in a
small closet behind the elevator shaft. They decided that they should call the
police.
When the police arrived they directed them to the closet and showed them the
skeleton fully clothed and standing upright. They said, "This could be Jimmy
Hoffa or somebody really important."
Two days went by and the construction workers couldn't stand it any more; they
had to know who they had found. They called the police and said, "We are the two
guys who found the skeleton in the closet and we want to know if it was Jimmy
Hoffa or somebody important."
The police said, "It's not Jimmy Hoffa, but it was somebody kind of important."
"Well, who was it?"
"The 1956 Blonde National Hide-and-Seek Champion."

Long Lonely Nights
Recorded by Lee Andrews & the Hearts, 1958
Long, long and lonely nights
I cry my eyes out over you
Wond'ring if I did right
And why you left me with a broken heart
Oh, long, long and lonely nights
Oh, how I miss you, my dear
Please, please, come back to me
How I wish you were here
As I go along my lonely way I visualize your face
When I pass through (yeah!) my doorway
What's left for me to face?
Oh, long, long and lonely nights
I guess you're never coming home
Long, long and lonely nights
Ever since you've been gone
As I go along my lonely way I visualize your face
When I pass through (yeah!) my doorway
What's left for me to face?
Oh, oh, oh, long, long and lonely nights
I guess you're never coming home
Long, long and lonely nights
Ever since you've been gone
Please, please, come back to me
You've been gone too long
