Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
Worry - one of my better skills... possibly one of my best talents..... :o(
BONUS - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Y-0nWVdBH4 - Don't Worry Baby - The Beach Boys
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_Worry_Baby:
| "Don’t Worry Baby" is a song written by
Brian Wilson and
Roger Christian, produced by Wilson and first recorded by the
Beach Boys. The band's version, a tender ballad with falsetto lead
vocal by Brian, was first released on their 1964 album
Shut Down Volume 2. It was also released as the B-side of
The Beach Boys' first U.S. number-one hit single, "I
Get Around", managing to reach number 24 on the U.S. Hot 100 in its
own right. The single was released in the United States in May 1964
through
Capitol Records. It was released a month later, in June 1964, in the
United Kingdom. Brian Wilson cited the song as his attempt to capture the essence of his all-time favourite record, "Be My Baby" by the Ronettes, who would later cover his song. At one time, Wilson listened to his 45 record of the song he "could never do" up to 100 times a day. John Lennon's 1980 hit, "(Just Like) Starting Over", is considered by some to somewhat borrow from the chorus melody of "Don't Worry Baby", while Garbage's 1998 hit, "Push It", contains an interpolation of its chorus. The song "Don't Worry Baby" is part of the The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll list.[1], and ranked as the 176th greatest song of all time in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. |

Thanks for the B-Day wishes.
Yes, I had the
opportunity to "hang out" with some cool dudes in the south-central
Cabeza Prieta NWR. We also found a few bats, mostly California
leaf-nosed bats including these. Photo courtesy of my son, Joe, who
got to "hang out" with me today too.
YOWZERONI!
Oh, Honey, BATS?!?
Ah, well. Whatever floats your boat. Glad you enjoyed your birthday!
Thank you, Jim!

NEWPORT NEWS - John David Yoder, 87, died Saturday, August 23, 2014, at the home of his daughter, Christine Yoder. He was born November 13, 1926 in Warwick County, Virginia to Harvey E. and Alta Kennel Yoder on the family farm at Oyster Point where he grew up enjoying farm life. His career included the operation of Yoder Dairy with the milk, processing and door to door delivery of those products. As the local landscape changed in the 1960's from rural to urban, the cows were sold and John David turned to real estate and land development. He was instrumental in developing much of the land that was once part of the Yoder family farm including Criston Apartments and the Hampton Inn & Suites. He was known and respected as a dairyman, developer and a businessman with unquestioned integrity and an unwavering faith in the goodness of God. In 1950, he married Esther Mabel Baer. They were both life long members of Huntington Mennonite Church where they shared their love and gifts generously in many ways and positions. His life was marked by varied interests and accomplishments including work with Mennonite Economic Development Associates, serving as Board President of Mennowood Retirement Community and acting as the voice of the radio program Rock of Ages. In 1996, John David, along with others, created the Yoder Preservation Trust which acted to preserve the family's dairy barn, a local landmark on the Peninsula. The barn was moved and now rests at the corner of Jefferson Avenue and Oyster Point Road, where it has served as a performance venue and community events space. John David and Esther Mabel worked tirelessly as part of the folk operas collectively titled Pieced Together which were performed in the Yoder Barn Theatre between 1997 - 2007. These plays were based on local oral histories and chronicled the people and events of the Newport News community. He is preceded in death by his parents, Harvey and Alta; his brother Chris Yoder; his son Mark Yoder; and his wife of 59 years, Esther Mabel Yoder. Surviving are daughter Christine Yoder; son John A. Yoder; two granddaughters, Erin Mullenex (Ryan Dillingham), and Kaitlyn Smitter; three sisters, Sarah Marie Weaver (Lloyd), Erma Lehman (Paul), Twila Brunk (Ken); a sister-in-law Sara Grace Yoder Miller; as well as many nieces and nephews. His passing is a great loss to his large extended family, the community, and his church family. The family will receive friends from 6:30 to 7:30 PM Thursday, August 28, 2014 at W. J. Smith & Son Funeral Home. A funeral service will be held at 2:00 PM Friday, August 29, 2014, at Huntington Mennonite Church. Burial will follow in the Warwick River Mennonite Church Cemetery. Memorial contributions may be made to Eastern Mennonite University Center for Justice and Peacebuilding, 1200 Park Road, Harrisonburg, VA 22802. Arrangements by W. J. Smith & Son Funeral Home. View and post condolences on our online guestbook at dailypress.com/guestbooks.

08/27/14 - "Good Friends":
|
"Good friends are like quilts - they age with you, yet never lose their warmth." |
I have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon, before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging. Whose business is it, if I choose to read, or play on the computer, until 4 AM, or sleep until noon? I will dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of the 50s, 60s & 70s, and if I, at the same time, wish to weep over a lost love, I will. I will walk the beach, in a swim suit that is stretched over a bulging body, and will dive into the waves, with abandon, if I so choose, despite the pitying glances from the jet set. They, too, will get old. I know I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some of life is just as well forgotten. And, eventually, I remember the important things. Sure, over the years, my heart has been broken. How can your heart not break, when you lose a loved one, or when a child suffers, or even when somebody's beloved pet gets hit by a car? But broken hearts are what give us strength, and understanding, and compassion. A heart never broken is pristine and sterile, and will never know the joy of being imperfect. I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face. So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could turn silver. As you get older, it is easier to be positive. You care less about what other people think. I don't question myself anymore. I've even earned the right to be wrong. So, to answer your question, I like being old. It has set me free. I like the person I have become. I am not going to live forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what will be. And I shall eat dessert every single day (if I feel like it). MAY OUR FRIENDSHIP NEVER COME APART, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART!
Thanks so
much, Al!

FINALLY:
From www.ajokeaday.com - 08/27/14:
| Over breakfast one morning, a
woman said to her husband, "I bet you don't know what day this is." "Of course I do," he indignantly answered, going out the door on his way the office. At 10:00 AM, the doorbell rang, and when the woman opened the door, she was handed a box containing a dozen long-stemmed red roses. At 1:00 PM, a foil-wrapped, two pound box of her favorite chocolates arrived. Later, a boutique delivered a designer dress. The woman couldn’t wait for her husband to come home. "First the flowers, then the candy, and then the dress!" she exclaimed. "I've never spent a more wonderful Groundhog Day in my whole life!' |

Well, its been building up inside of me
For oh, I don't know how long;
I don't know why, but I keep thinking
Something's bound to go wrong.
But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
When she says, "Don't worry, baby."
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby.
I guess I should've kept my mouth shut
When I started to brag about my car,
But I can't back down now because
I pushed the other guys too far.
She makes me come alive
And makes me wanna drive
When she says, "Don't worry baby."
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby.
She told me "Baby, when you race today
Just take along my love with you,
And if you knew how much I loved you,
Baby, nothing could go wrong with you."
Oh, what she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says "Don't worry, baby"
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby.
