04/19/11, 2:13 PM - "Tornado in Raleigh":
| Carol, Thank God our area in Raleigh was not damaged by the Tornado. We had torrents of rain but not much wind. Sadness prevails over the entire State though, since we did lose 41 people and three children under the age of ten in Raleigh. Their six month old sister is in the hospital in critical condition and I would like to ask the Typhoon Nation to pray for this baby if they feel so inclined. And I hope that the majority do; this mother cannot take any more grief in her already shredded heart. She was in the closet with them when a tree crashed on their home....so very sad. Dimples aka Sepi
Thank you,
Dimples!

From Ray
Barnes ('65) of VA - 04/18/11, 8:41 AM - "little Latin, less Greek":
| Carol, My condolences to
Jerry ('65) and
Judy (Phillips - '66) Allen (of VA)
and to the Phillips family.
I did not know 
Monty
(Phillips - '62)
personally, but you and so many others from
NNHS
are, and shall remain, part of my extended family. As you say in the
newsletter: weep with them who weep.As for your assessment of my ancient (not dead) language skills: I am busted. I pretty much quoted every tried and true, i.e., trite phrase I could muster. Maybe I should have offered up a declension of amo, amas, amat. "Weeping may stay for the night, but joy comes in the morning" (Psalm 30:5) Thinking of my friends right now, especially, Ray
Thanks so much, Ray!

From My Niece, Shari, of VA -
"Food For Thought... Plus":
| Jokes A crew of highway maintenance workers were sent to repair some road signs that vandals had knocked down in a forested area. The first one they put back up was a symbol warning of a deer crossing. As they moved down the road to repair the next sign, one member of the crew looked back and spotted a deer running across the highway. She turned to a co-worker and said, "I wonder how long he's been waiting to cross?" ooooo *-------------- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes ---------------* My husband was telling me about a news item he heard on National Public Radio about how the U.S. military is en- listing honeybees to find land mines. The insects are trained to react to the scent of TNT, then are fitted with transmitters and sent out to search for underground explosives. "When they smell TNT," my husband explained, "the insects hover over the area and the military tracks them to the site to safely eliminate the land mine." "Gee," I remarked, "it gives a whole new meaning to the slogan 'Bee all that you can bee!'" oooooooooooooooooooooooo Battles Life has many battles. But I am a warrior. ~Nathaniel Bronner~ oooooooooooooooooooooooo Fact: Humphrey Bogart's most memorable role, Casablanca's Rick Blaine, was originally developed for Ronald Reagan. oooooooooooooooooooooooo FOOD FOR THOUGHT A mother and a baby camel were lazing around, and suddenly the baby camel asked.... Baby: Mother, mother, may I ask you some questions? Mother: Sure! Why son, is there something bothering you? Baby: Why do camels have humps? Mother: Well son, we are desert animals, we need the humps to store water and we are known to survive without water. Baby: Okay, then why are our legs long and our feet rounded? Mother: Son, obviously they are meant for walking in the desert, You know with these legs I can move around the desert better than anyone does! said the mother proudly. Baby: Okay, then why are our eyelashes long? Sometimes it bothers my sight. Mother: My son, those long thick eyelashes are your protective cover. They help to protect your eyes from the desert sand and wind, said Mother camel with eyes rimming with pride.... Baby: I see. So the hump is to store water when we are in the desert, the legs are for walking through the desert and these eyelashes protect my eyes from the desert...Then what the heck are we doing here in the Zzzoooooo! MORAL OF THE STORY IS: "Skills, knowledge, abilities and experiences are only useful if you are at the right place" (Where are you right now????????) oooooooooooooooooooooooo The Flawed Jeans I put on my favorite pair of jeans this morning; they are so soft and comfortable. I needed to spend the day at the hospital with my husband in the Intensive Care Unit. We had gone to the emergency room yesterday; he was having chest pains. The doctors say there is no sign of damage to his heart and they will release him this afternoon, but he will need to return for a stress test in three to four weeks. Sitting there reflecting on how fortunate we are, I noticed the flaw in my jeans again. They have an irregularity in the weave at the front of one leg. I noticed this flaw when I first tried them on but purchased them anyway because they were so comfortable. I love them not because of the flaw but in spite of it. Each time I wear the jeans I am reminded of God's love for us. It is unconditional in spite of our flaws. ~A MountainWings Original by Joyce Spencer, Tecumseh, OK~ Thank you, Shari!  |

FINALLY:
From http://www.cleanjokes4u.com/:
| Hamster: A mangy looking guy goes into a bar and orders a drink. The bartender says: "No way. I don't think you can pay for it." The guy says, "You're right. I don't have any money, but if I show you something you haven't seen before, will you give me a drink?" The bartender says, "Only if what you show me ain't risque." "Deal!" says the guy and reaches into his coat pocket and pulls out a hamster. He puts the hamster on the bar and it runs to the end of the bar, climbs down the bar, runs across the room, up the piano, jumps on the key board and starts playing a tune. And the hamster is really good. The bartender says, "You're right. I've never seen anything like that before. That hamster is truly good on the piano." The guy downs the drink and asks the bartender for another. "Money or another miracle, or else no drink", says the bartender. The guy reaches into his coat again and pulls out a frog. He puts the frog on the bar, and the frog starts to sing. He has a marvelous voice and great pitch. A fine singer. A stranger from the other end of the bar runs over to the guy and offers him $300 for the frog. The guy says, "It's a deal." He takes the three hundred and gives the stranger the frog. The stranger runs out of the bar. The bartender says to the guy, "Are you some kind of nut? You sold a singing frog for $300? It must have been worth millions. You must be crazy." "Not so", says the guy. "The hamster is also a ventriloquist." |

Jerusalem of Gold The air of the mountains is as clear as wine And the fragrance of the pine trees Is lifted upon the evening breeze With the ringing of the bells
And in the deep sleep of the tree and the stone Held captive in a dream The city which sits alone And in her heart, a wall
Jerusalem of gold And of copper and of light For all of your songs I am the harp
How the water cisterns have dried up The city square is empty Nobody goes up to the Temple Mount In the Old City
And in the caves of the rocks Winds howl And no one goes down to the Dead Sea Upon the Jericho Road
Jerusalem of gold...
Although I come to sing to you today And to tie crowns upon you I am less than the youngest of your sons And the last of the sweet singers
For your name singes the lips Like the kiss of the serpent If I forget thee, oh Jerusalem She is completely golden
Jerusalem of gold...
We have returned to the water cisterns To the marketplace and the square A shofar calls out on the Temple Mount In the Old City
And in the caves in the rocks A thousand suns shine forth And again we will go down to the Dead Sea Upon the Jericho Road
Jerusalem of gold... |
