Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
July 1?
Already??
July 1
is the 182nd day of the year (183rd in
leap
years) in the
Gregorian calendar. There are 183 days remaining until the end of
the year. The end of this day marks the halfway point of a
leap
year. It also falls on the same day of the week as New Year's Day in a leap year. |
I like this
song.

The Awful Effects of
Continuing Terrorism By Harry M. Covert The time has come for a real vigil. Using
this bully pulpit something must be done to halt the slide to “Hell
in a Handbasket” as a humorist of yore penned a half-century ago. At the risk of appearing cynical or
uncaring, which I am not, everybody is missing the cause for the
terror, murder and mayhem which seems to be the most popular thing
of the present. This is not a joke. All of us are at risk. It’s easy
to say if victims had side arms at the ready the results would be
different. Not so. I’m a true believer in the right to pack and
carry concealed weapons. All right, everybody who wants to go to
Heaven raise your hand. ◄◄◄◄◄
Thank you so much for
your insights, Harry!

- 06/28/15:Recently scientists revealed that beer
contains small traces of female hormones. To prove their theory, the scientists fed 100 men 12 pints of beer and observed that 100% of them gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became emotional, and couldn’t drive. No further testing is planned. |

I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love
Then you softly leave
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love?
How deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breakin’ us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest, darkest hour
You're my saviour when I fall
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside
That I really do
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love?
How deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breakin’ us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
And you come to me on a summer breeze,
Keep me warm in your love
Then you softly leave
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love?
How deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breakin’ us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
