05/19/11 - NNHS Newsletter - Hot Stuff

Whoever called it necking was a poor judge of anatomy.

- Groucho Marx
(02 Oct 1890 - 19 Aug 1977)

Dear Friends and Schoolmates,

   I mean, really - are we not ALL "Hot Stuff"?!? 

BONUS - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27-TM3q5-Cc - Hot Stuff - Donna Summer 


From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Stuff_%28Donna_Summer_song%29

"Hot Stuff" is a hit single released by American singer Donna Summer in 1979 as the first single release from her Bad Girls album through Casablanca Records. Up to that point, Summer had mainly been associated with disco songs but this song also showed significant rock influences including a guitar solo by ex-Doobie Brother and Steely Dan guitarist Jeff "Skunk" Baxter.

"Hot Stuff" would also win Summer the Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance, making her not only the first African-American artist to achieve that feat, but also the first woman to ever win a Grammy for Best Rock Vocal Performance. It is ranked #104 on the updated Rolling Stone magazine's list of "the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time".[1] The songs also lists at #67 on Billboard's Greatest Songs of all time.[2] ...

PECULIAR POLITICAL PLOYS PLAYED


Things were getting very confusing in St. Louis. Technically the military chief in the city was Gen. William S. Harney. He had been relieved on April 21. Then he was reappointed May 8. Then Lincoln had sent a letter to local politician (and known Unionist) Frank Blair, telling him to relieve Harney again, suspecting him of excessive tolerance of Confederate elements. Today Lincoln sent Blair yet another letter, rescinding the first one.

SPOTSYLVANIA STILL SEES SKIRMISHES

Action had been comparatively slow for several days around Spotsylvania Court House. This ended today with an assault at dawn by the corps’ of Hancock and Wright on Robert E. Lee’s left flank. Unfortunately for many brave Union soldiers, the Confederates had spent the days of quiet building fortifications and entrenchments. The attack, and several more, all failed, and Meade ordered a halt. Grant renewed his motion around Lee’s right flank.

HARBOR HORRORS HINDER HAMPTONS

Hampton Roads, Virginia, had been a small but thriving port city for coastal shipping and up and down the Rappahannock River before the outbreak of war. Things were thriving there again today, but the parcels in question were being delivered by airmail. Shore batteries had been installed by the Confederate forces, particularly at a little promontory called Stevens’ Point. Their targets were the ships of the very earliest days of the Union blockade. The blockaders were delivering quite a few airdrops of their own. Little damage was done on either side.

SPOTSYLVANIA SAVAGERY SLOWLY CEASES

Robert E. Lee had been fighting U.S. Grant at last, in the area around a structure called Spotsylvania Court House. He had beaten Grant at every turn, but for once he was facing a Union general who did not pull his army back across the Rappahannock after the first setback. In fact, Lee had a suspicion that Grant was using the same sort of flanking maneuver that Lee himself had won with so often before. He sent the corps of Jubal Early around to the right just to check, and sure enough there Grant’s men were. The fighting constituted the official end of the Battle of Spotsylvania when Early’s men fell back. Grant, it seemed, was heading for the Po River.

    From Bill Black ('66) of GA - 05/17/11 - "That Old Feeling":

Carol:

When I played “That Old Feeling”, which I SWEAR under oath I hadn’t heard before, I realized how similar it was to my ( still, sadly, unproduced… ) play, “Well I Guess I’m Back”.

The lyrics are so similar to the dialog between my two main characters, that I think I need to draft a letter to Nancy Sinatra before she slaps me with a plagiarism / theft of intellectual property lawsuit!   Copy to Leslie Diamond ('66 - of VA), senior partner at Diamond and Presley, attorneys at law, offices in Norfolk and Memphis. 

Are there any classmates, oh, you know, living in a tropical location that doesn’t have an extradition treaty with the United States?  Someplace even Seal Team 6 wouldn’t think to look?

Other than LaGrange?

Best,

Bill

   WILD GIGGLES! I think you're safe, Bill - especially as it's still unproduced! I frankly have never understood how composers, lyricists, authors, and playwrights can write anything in the certain knowledge that their ideas are original. Who can ever be truly sure that the tunes and words floating around in our minds were our own or things we fleetingly heard long, long ago?


    From Glenn Dye ('60) of TX - 05/16/11 - "Alan Jackson ...... Awesome":

May have to play twice. Once to listen and once to read. Goose Bump time.

Even if you aren't a country music fan I think you'll agree that Alan Jackson's rendition of this hymn is beautiful as is the slideshow reminding us of the reason this country became the greatest nation in the history of mankind..

It also reminds us that if we don't return to God we will lose it all. (Notice the tears falling from the face of the Eagle.)

Between the song, the visuals and the text, everyone will find a reason to send this one on to others.


http://www.openmyeyeslord.net/UltimateFreedom.htm

   OH, WOW! Thanks, Glenn!


  From Bill Hobbs ('66) of Northern VA - 05/17/11 - "The Good Old Days?":

WE HAVE SOME EXTREMELY STRONG, AND TENACIOUS ANCESTRY, AND ITS SAD THAT OUR CHILDREN AREN'T BEING TAUGHT ABOUT IT.

These are the people that built this country.

AFTER YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURES READ THE NOTE AT THE

BOTTOM! WE ALL NEED A REMINDER.

America ...during the years of 1935 - 1939

http://www.patriotthoughts.com/2010/08/16/america-during-the-years-of-1935-1939/

AND WE THINK WE'VE GOT IT BAD!

This was a mere 70 years ago ....

Makes complaining about no cell service, high gasoline prices, not enough cable channels, etc., seem a bit ludicrous.

I am reminded to be grateful for what I do have ....

Start each day with a smile and a prayer ... then pass it on!

Live Life Well

   Thanks so much, Bill!

      From My Niece, Shari, of VA - 05/16/11 - "The Spoon Theory -- A Wonderful Analogy":

 ~o~ The Spoon Theory written by Christine Miserandino  ~o  
                                                                                                                                     
Please take the time to read Christine Miserandino’s personal story and analogy of what it is like to live with sickness or disability.

My best friend and I were in the diner, talking. As usual, it was very late and we were eating French fries with gravy. Like normal girls our age, we spent a lot of time in the diner while in college, and most of the time we spent talking about boys, music or trivial things, that seemed very important at the time. We never got serious about anything in particular and spent most of our time laughing.
 
As I went to take some of my medicine with a snack as I usually did, she watched me with an awkward kind of stare, instead of continuing the conversation. She then asked me out of the blue what it felt like to have Lupus and be sick. I was shocked not only because she asked the random question, but also because I assumed she knew all there was to know about Lupus. She came to doctors with me, she saw me walk with a cane, and throw up in the bathroom. She had seen me cry in pain, what else was there to know?
 
I started to ramble on about pills, and aches and pains, but she kept pursuing, and didn’t seem satisfied with my answers. I was a little surprised, as being my roommate in college and friend for years I thought she already knew the medical definition of Lupus. Then she looked at me with a face every sick person knows well, the face of pure curiosity about something no one healthy can truly understand. She asked what it felt like, not physically, but what it felt like to be me, to be sick.
 
As I tried to gain my composure, I glanced around the table for help or guidance, or at least stall for time to think. I was trying to find the right words. How do I answer a question I never was able to answer for myself? How do I explain every detail of every day being effected, and give the emotions a sick person goes through with clarity. I could have given up, cracked a joke like I usually do, and changed the subject, but I remember thinking if I don’t try to explain this, how could I ever expect her to understand. If I can’t explain this to my best friend, how could I explain my world to anyone else? I had to at least try.
 
 
At that moment, the spoon theory was born. I quickly grabbed every spoon on the table; heck, I grabbed spoons off of the other tables. I looked at her in the eyes and said, “Here you go, you have Lupus”. She looked at me slightly confused, as anyone would when they are being handed a bouquet of spoons. The cold metal spoons clanked in my hands, as I grouped them together and shoved them into her hands.
 
I explained that the difference in being sick and being healthy is having to make choices or to consciously think about things when the rest of the world doesn’t have to. The healthy have the luxury of a life without choices, a gift most people take for granted.
 
Most people start the day with unlimited amount of possibilities, and energy to do whatever they desire, especially young people. For the most part, they do not need to worry about the effects of their actions. So for my explanation, I used spoons to convey this point. I wanted something for her to actually hold, for me to then take away, since most people who get sick feel a “loss” of a life they once knew. If I was in control of taking away the spoons, then she would know what it feels like to have someone or something else, in this case Lupus, being in control.
 
She grabbed the spoons with excitement. She didn’t understand what I was doing, but she is always up for a good time, so I guess she thought I was cracking a joke of some kind like I usually do when talking about touchy topics. Little did she know how serious I would become!
 
I asked her to count her spoons. She asked why, and I explained that when you are healthy you expect to have a never-ending supply of “spoons”. But when you have to now plan your day, you need to know exactly how many “spoons” you are starting with. It doesn’t guarantee that you might not lose some along the way, but at least it helps to know where you are starting. She counted out 12 spoons. She laughed and said she wanted more. I said no, and I knew right away that this little game would work when she looked disappointed and we hadn’t even started yet. I’ve wanted more “spoons” for years and haven’t found a way yet to get more, why should she? I also told her to always be conscious of how many she had, and not to drop them because she can never forget she has Lupus.
 
I asked her to list off the tasks of her day, including the most simple. As she rattled off daily chores or just fun things to do, I explained how each one would cost her a spoon. When she jumped right into getting ready for work as her first task of the morning, I cut her off and took away a spoon. I practically jumped down her throat. I said, "No! You don’t just get up. You have to crack open your eyes, and then realize you are late. You didn’t sleep well the night before. You have to crawl out of bed, and then you have to make yourself something to eat before you can do anything else, because if you don’t, you can’t take your medicine, and if you don’t take your medicine you might as well give up all your spoons for today and tomorrow, too.” I quickly took away a spoon and she realized she hasn’t even gotten dressed yet. Showering cost her a spoon, just for washing her hair and shaving her legs. Reaching high and low that early in the morning could actually cost more than one spoon, but I figured I would give her a break; I didn’t want to scare her right away. Getting dressed was worth another spoon. I stopped her and broke down every task to show her how every little detail needs to be thought about. You cannot simply just throw clothes on when you are sick. I explained that I have to see what clothes I can physically put on; if my hands hurt that day, buttons are out of the question. If I have bruises that day, I need to wear long sleeves, and if I have a fever, I need a sweater to stay warm and so on. If my hair is falling out I need to spend more time to look presentable, and then you need to factor in another 5 minutes for feeling badly that it took you 2 hours to do all this.
 
I think she was starting to understand when she theoretically didn’t even get to work, and she was left with 6 spoons. I then explained to her that she needed to choose the rest of her day wisely, since when your “spoons” are gone, they are gone. Sometimes you can borrow against tomorrow’s “spoons”, but just think how hard tomorrow will be with less “spoons”. I also needed to explain that a person who is sick always lives with the looming thought that tomorrow may be the day that a cold comes, or an infection, or any number of things that could be very dangerous. So you do not want to run low on “spoons”, because you never know when you truly will need them. I didn’t want to depress her, but I needed to be realistic, and unfortunately being prepared for the worst is part of a real day for me.
 
We went through the rest of the day, and she slowly learned that skipping lunch would cost her a spoon, as well as standing on a train, or even typing at her computer too long. She was forced to make choices and think about things differently. Hypothetically, she had to choose not to run errands, so that she could eat dinner that night.
 
When we got to the end of her pretend day, she said she was hungry. I summarized that she had to eat dinner but she only had one spoon left. If she cooked, she wouldn’t have enough energy to clean the pots. If she went out for dinner, she might be too tired to drive home safely. Then I also explained, that I didn’t even bother to add into this game, that she was so nauseous, that cooking was probably out of the question anyway. So she decided to make soup; it was easy. I then said it is only 7pm, you have the rest of the night but maybe end up with one spoon, so you can do something fun, or clean your apartment, or do chores, but you can’t do it all.
 
I rarely see her emotional, so when I saw her upset I knew maybe I was getting through to her. I didn’t want my friend to be upset, but at the same time I was happy to think finally maybe someone understood me a little bit. She had tears in her eyes and asked quietly, “Christine, How do you do it? Do you really do this everyday?” I explained that some days were worse then others; some days I have more spoons then most. But I can never make it go away and I can’t forget about it, I always have to think about it. I handed her a spoon I had been holding in reserve. I said simply, “I have learned to live life with an extra spoon in my pocket, in reserve. You need to always be prepared.”
 
It's hard, the hardest thing I ever had to learn is to slow down, and not do everything. I fight this to this day. I hate feeling left out, having to choose to stay home, or to not get things done that I want to. I wanted her to feel that frustration. I wanted her to understand, that everything everyone else does comes so easy, but for me it is one hundred little jobs in one. I need to think about the weather, my temperature that day, and the whole day’s plans before I can attack any one given thing. When other people can simply do things, I have to attack it and make a plan like I am strategizing a war. It is in that lifestyle, the difference between being sick and healthy. It is the beautiful ability to not think and just do. I miss that freedom. I miss never having to count “spoons”.
 
After we were emotional and talked about this for a little while longer, I sensed she was sad. Maybe she finally understood. Maybe she realized that she never could truly and honestly say she understands. But at least now she might not complain so much when I can’t go out for dinner some nights, or when I never seem to make it to her house and she always has to drive to mine. I gave her a hug when we walked out of the diner. I had the one spoon in my hand and I said, “Don’t worry. I see this as a blessing. I have been forced to think about everything I do. Do you know how many spoons people waste everyday? I don’t have room for wasted time, or wasted “spoons”, and I chose to spend this time with you.”
 
Ever since this night, I have used the spoon theory to explain my life to many people. In fact, my family and friends refer to spoons all the time. It has been a code word for what I can and cannot do. Once people understand the spoon theory they seem to understand me better, but I also think they live their life a little differently, too. I think it isn’t just good for understanding Lupus, but anyone dealing with any disability or illness. Hopefully, they don’t take so much for granted or their life in general. I give a piece of myself, in every sense of the word when I do anything. It has become an inside joke. I have become famous for saying to people jokingly that they should feel special when I spend time with them, because they have one of my “spoons”.

   Thank you so much, Shari! This really gives more reasons to count our many blessings and appreciate more deeply the plight of others!

EVERY CHEVY CONVERTIBLE

Top this one
Every
 Chevrolet convertible since 1912

Wow! What do you suppose this collection is worth ?

This collection belongs to Dennis Albaugh in Ankeny, Iowa, just north of Des Moines ....


The personal and private collection consists of 110 + Chevrolet convertibles... 
All years from 1912 to 1975 and Corvette convertibles from 1953 to 1975.

That is a Chevy convertible from every year of manufacture EXCEPT 1939...
The reason? - Chevy didn't make a convertible in '39 -- and ended its convertible line in '75!


His 'boy toys' include his own 18 hole golf course, copied somewhat after Augusta National.
He is what you call a REAL Chevy guy, but his passion seems to be convertibles!


This billionaire made his fortune selling farm chemicals!

FINALLY:

From www.ajokeaday.com - 05/18/11:
 
Job Interview Question

You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night. You pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for the bus:

1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.

2. An old friend who once saved your life.

3. The perfect man (or) woman you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that there could only be one passenger in your car?

Think before you continue reading. This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.

You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first; or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to pay him back. However, you may never be able to find your perfect dream lover again.

The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer.

He simply answered: "I would give the car keys to my old friend, and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the woman of my dreams."

Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."

Hot Stuff

Recorded by Donna Summer, 1979
(b. 31 Dec 1946)

 

Sittin' here, eatin' my heart out waitin'
waitin' for some lover to call
dialed about a thousand numbers lately
almost rang the phone off the wall

Lookin' for some hot stuff baby this evenin'
I need some hot stuff baby tonight
I want some hot stuff baby this evenin'
gotta have some hot stuff
gotta have some lovin' tonight
I need hot stuff
I want some hot stuff
I need hot stuff

Lookin' for a lover who needs another
don't want another night on my own
wanna share my love with a warm blooded lover
wanna bring a wild man back home

Gotta have some hot love baby this evenin'
I need some hot stuff baby tonight
I want some hot stuff baby this evenin'
gotta have some lovin'
got to have a love tonight
I need hot stuff
hot love
lookin' for hot love

Hot, hot, hot, hot stuff
hot, hot, hot
hot, hot, hot, hot stuff
hot, hot, hot

Gotta have some hot love baby this evenin'
I need some hot stuff baby tonight
lookin' for some hot stuff baby this evenin'
I need hot stuff baby tonight
hot stuff baby this evening
I want hot stuff baby tonight
hot stuff baby this evenin'
I want some hot stuff baby tonight
