Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
It's Frank
again. Once he starts singing to me, he just keeps going and going, song
after glorious song. This has been going on for the last ten years. It's not my fault, not really. I've got him under my
skin.....
BONUS - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yqGujr2-Jw&ob=av2n - I've Got You Under My Skin - Frank Sinatra
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I%27ve_Got_You_Under_My_Skin:
"I've Got You Under My Skin" is a song written by Cole Porter. It became a signature song for Frank Sinatra and, in 1966, became a top 10 hit for The Four Seasons. Since then it has gone on to be recorded by many leading pop artists and jazz musicians.
Written in 1936, the song was introduced in the Eleanor Powell MGM musical, Born to Dance in which it was performed by Virginia Bruce. It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Song that year.
Sinatra first sang the song on his weekly radio show in 1946, as the second part of a medley with "Easy to Love". He put his definitive stamp on the tune ten years later, in a swinging big-band version that built to successive crescendos on the back of an arrangement by Nelson Riddle. Riddle was a fan of Maurice Ravel, and has said that this arrangement was inspired by the Boléro.[1]
Sinatra aficionados usually rank this as one of his finest collaborations with Riddle's orchestra. An insistent saxophone section propels the chart which climaxes in a startlingly out-of-control slide trombone solo by Milt Bernhart. Appreciating the excitement of the arrangement, Sinatra usually included the song in his concerts thereafter—a tradition carried on by Frank Jr.[2]
Sinatra re-recorded "I've Got You Under My Skin" for the album Sinatra's Sinatra (1963), an album of re-recordings of his personal favorites. This time the trombone solo was by Dick Nash because Bernhart was booked for another session. In 1993, Sinatra recorded a version as a duet with Bono of U2 for the album Duets. It was also released as a B-side on U2's "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)" single.

Hi Carol, Today's my birthday and it made me happy to see myself mentioned again in your NNHS Newsletter. I see that most people mentioned there have provided you with both then and now photos so I've attached a "now" picture of me you may use if you'd like. We'll be kicking back today hoping that Earl doesn't wash out the grass seed we just spread. |

There's a song I was playing and singing today called "Bob Dylan's Dream" that made me feel a little sad because, like in the song, there isn't one friend from my school days in Norfolk that I'd know how to get in touch with after all this time. If you have a moment click on this link and listen to the lyrics and you'll understand what I'm feeling. http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/search/songs/?query=bob%20dylans%20dream Like the song says... How many a year has passed and gone And many a gamble has been lost and won And many a road taken by many a friend And each one I’ve never seen again I wish, I wish, I wish in vain That we could sit simply in that room again Ten thousand dollars at the drop of a hat I’d give it all gladly if our lives could be like that. I do envy how you've kept up with so many people who's lives you've touched and that you have this big wonderful family around you. My sister's more like you about staying in touch, and will be visiting distant cousins in Moscow in a couple of weeks. We'd all go back to visit Germany too, but we've never been able to locate a single relative there who survived WW2. It's like they never existed...just so much dust in the wind. Anyhow, be as it may, thanks again for the birthday nod, it helps. I knew when I met you that you were a special sort of person, but I was too young then to realize just how special. Very best wishes, Dustin & Roberta too OH, WOW! Thank you so much, Dusty - how sweet! ![]()
With technological advances, it
becomes easier to locate people these days, but we don't always like
what we find. I've often wondered about our old friends from
Old Dominion. Besides you, the only
one of our friends back in those days about whom I've ever learned
anything was
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Saget: Saget directed the 1996 ABC television movie For Hope, which was inspired by the life story of his sister, Gay Saget, who died from scleroderma three years earlier.[1] Saget is currently a board member of the Scleroderma Research Foundation. His scleroderma efforts have further benefited such celebrities as Scary Movie star, Regina Hall. “When my mom was diagnosed, I didn’t know much about the condition. But Dana Delaney, who is an actress and now a friend of mine, put me in touch with Bob Saget. Bob had made a television movie about scleroderma years ago because his sister had died from it. That was back when they didn’t even know what it was. Anyway, Bob had a group called the Scleroderma Research Foundation, so I donated to that and my mother even went to the doctor Bob had suggested, who happened to be over at Johns Hopkins.”[10] Here,
Dusty - have some more birthday cake - and give our love to Roberta!

From Chuck Jones ('66) of Northern VA -
09/02/10 - " Because you matter":
One day a woman's husband died, and on that clear, cold morning, in the
warmth of their bedroom, the wife was struck with the pain of learning
that sometimes there isn't "anymore". No more hugs, no more special
moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more
"just one minute." Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used
up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, say, "I
love you." |
Thank you so very much, Chuck! I
love ya, too!

From ArcaMax
Jokes - 09/02/10:A New Student It was the first day of school and a new student, the son of a Japanese businessman, entered the fourth grade. The teacher greeted the class and said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American history. Who said, 'Give me Liberty, or give me death'?" She saw only a sea of blank faces, except for that of Toshiba, who had his hand up. "Patrick Henry, 1775," said the boy. "Now," said the teacher, "Who said, 'Government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth'?" Again, no response except from Toshiba: "Abraham Lincoln, 1863." The teacher snapped at the class, "You should be ashamed. Toshiba, who is new to our country, knows more about it than you do." As she turned to write something on the blackboard, she heard a loud whisper: "Damned Japanese." "Who said that?" she demanded. Toshiba put his hand up. "Lee Iacocca, 1982," he said. |

Frank Sinatra
(12 Dec 1915 – 14
May 1998)
I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin
I tried so not to give in
I said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should I try to resist, when baby I know so well
I've got you under my skin
I 'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear
Don't you know little fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time that I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin
I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, how it yells in my ear
Don't you know little fool, you never can win
Why not use your mentality, step up, wake up to reality
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin
Yes, I've got you under my skin
