Paul (Harty - Bardolph HS, IL - '61 - of IL) Update":
Dr. Ayres'
office called me back this morning to tell me they had scheduled Paul's
appointment with Dr. Purcell, the nephrologist, for Wednesday, June 3,
2009 in his Maryville office. We're moving forward.
From Charlie Snead ('64) of NC - 05/19/09 - "
Shari's Friend's Child":
I just spent a weekend at my daughter's to
celebrate our grandson Sam's 3rd birthday. Our grandchildren are so very
precious to us. I would also add the child's grandfather to the prayers. I'd
need a lot for help me survive such an accident. I'm sure he will also.
It seems they have a handle on Paul's problems.
We'll keep praying.
God bless you, Charlie p.s. Speaking of grandchildren, see attached!
AWWW! How adorable! |

Thank you so much, Charlie!
From Jean Poole Burton ('64) of
RI - 05/19/09 - "Hi from RI":
Hi Carol,
I just got back from visiting my mother on the sacred soil as you put it! I hope Paul is feeling better soon. Gall stones are extremely painful, from one who knows, and can cause pancreatitis and other complications when they are "of long standing"...had mine out when I was 40, not a minute too soon!
Both of my children were with me for a couple of days this past week and it was sweet to have them together even for short time. Mamma was glad to see all of us. Came home to find rhododendrons in bloom (winter is almost over!).
Love, Jean Burton
Thanks so much, Jean!

The Unstoppable Virus
I thought you would want to know about this e-mail virus. Even the most advanced programs from Norton or McAfee cannot take care of this one. It appears to affect those who were born prior to 1960.
Symptoms:
1.
Causes you to send the same e-mail twice.
done that!
2.
Causes you to send a blank e-mail!
done this too!
3.
Causes you to send e-mail to the wrong person.
yep!
4.
Causes you to send
it back to the person who sent it to you.
done that!
5. Causes you to forget to attach the attachment.
my worst symptom!
6.
Causes you to hit "SEND" before you've finished.
Oh,
no
-
not
again!
7. Causes you to
hit "DELETE" instead of "SEND."
and I just hate that!
8.
Causes you to hit "SEND" when you should "DELETE."
Oh No!
IT IS CALLED THE "C-NILE VIRUS."
Hmmm....Have
I already sent this to you?
How
should I know?!? Boy Howdy, can I relate!
WILD GIGGLES! Thanks,
Eva!
From Carol Collier Sparrow ('63)
of VA - 05/19/09 - "Give me that old time religion":
The light turned
yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk,
even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the
intersection.
The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration,
as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell
phone and makeup.
As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into
the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her
car with her hands up.
He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted,
photographed, and placed in a holding cell.
After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door.
She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was
waiting with her personal effects.
He said, ''I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car
while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you and
cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the
'What Would Jesus Do' bumper sticker, the 'Choose Life' license plate holder,
the 'Follow Me to Sunday-School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian
fish emblem on the trunk, so naturally...I assumed you had stolen the car.''
Thanks, Carol Lee!
I'm reminder of another bumper sticker:
"If you were accused of being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you?"

Success Principles
- Success Comes Easily When We Ask the Right
Question
By Linda McPharlin, Apr. 23, 2009
If you are finding success to be elusive and
difficult to reach in relationships, money and careers, or happiness in general,
you might be asking the wrong question. Often we as human beings ask “What’s in
it for me?” whenever we are faced with any given opportunity. It seems to be
this way in many cultures, certainly in business, and even embedded in our very
nature.
Yet the what’s in it for me attitude never seems to work out the way we had
hoped. We typically end up passing by relationships or opportunities that we
deem to be ‘unprofitable’ somehow for us without really ever knowing what
results would have been yielded. If we do jump on an opportunity, we may end up
feeling shorted if our ‘return on investment’ does not end up being exactly what
we thought it would be and miss seeing or taking advantage of other unexpected
rewards.
What if we reversed this question of what’s in it for me to “what’s in ME for
IT?” Instead of asking what will my returns be, ask what do I have to offer or
contribute. This question sets a whole different tone—for evaluation, for course
of action, and for performance.
It helps us to see if something is right for us in the first place. First, it
makes us examine ourselves which is really the only thing we have control over
anyway. It makes us take a good look at what we can offer and the best way to
offer it whatever the situation or opportunity is. As we do this, we can clearly
see if something is right for us to pursue based on who we are and what we have
to contribute.
It helps us to have a positive course of action. As we place our focus on the
opportunity, relationship, or even just our life rather than on how we feel or
what we are getting, we can act in a generous and powerful way that lends itself
to whatever we are contributing to with integrity.
Lastly, this all inspires us to be at our very best. With the reward essentially
now being shifted to our level and effectiveness of contribution, we will be
trying our very best to give all that we can give. Not only are we in top form,
but we are guaranteed success because our measure stick for success is now based
on our effort and our contribution. This becomes our reward, and it is something
that we actually have complete control over. As a special bonus, the
relationship, the project, the career and money, or again even just our lives in
general become successful in popular opinion as well because of our choices, our
positive course of action, and our inspired performance.
Why not give it a try? Instead of asking what’s in it for me, ask What’s in ME
for it?

Bread and Butter
- Written by Larry Parks & Jay Turnbow
The
Newbeats, 1964
I like bread and butter,
I like toast and jam,
That's what my baby feeds me,
I'm her loving man.
He likes bread and butter,
He likes toast and jam,
That's what his baby feeds him,
He's her loving man.
She don't cook mashed potatoes,
She don't cook T-bone steaks,
Don't feed me peanut butter,
She knows that I can't take.
He likes bread and butter,
He likes toast and jam,
That's what his baby feeds him,
He's her loving man.
Got home early one morning,
Much to my surprise,
She was eating chicken and dumplings
With some other guy.
No more bread and butter,
No more toast and jam,
I found my baby eating
With some other man.
