BIRTHDAYS - BELATED AND OTHERWISE:

Congratulations, Ladies!

REQUEST:
If
anyone knows where to locate Jean Hooker Hanson (Hampton HS - '64),
we've received an inquiry concerning her. She was last known to have
been somewhere in TX. She had a brother, Richard Hooker,
who attended NNHS; I do not know if he was
younger or older than she, as I cannot seem to find him in the 1955 - 1966
Anchors. (That proves absolutely nothing, of course. We all know
I could be staring directly at his photo and not see it).
If you know where to reach
either of them, please contact me so that I may relay that information.
Thanks!

From Bobby Hilling ('62) of VA - 09/02/06:
Hi Carol,
This is a great way for all to recognize and remember
September 11; and at the same time show our support for our troops at home
and overseas.
My nephew's son, a 2005 graduate of the
U.S. Military Academy
at West Point, is proudly serving our Country in Iraq. He and all the
troops need and deserve our support.
Thanks for considering this to be posted in your
newsletters.
By the way, a NNHS delegation walking together would be neat..
And, great appreciation to you for all that you do for
us....Bobby
Thanks so much, Bobby!!! I
seem to be too computer illiterate to figure out how to convert this
attachment into a form I can use, so I just copied the information from it
for now, until a later time. I missed some of the graphics this way,
but I caught all of the pertinent information. |

From Linda May Bond Crayton ('66) of VA -
09/05/06:
To Carol, to
![]() I enjoyed the southern list in this letter, because it means you should know what "Mister" (insert first name here) really means. It means Sugar or Honey Lamb or Lovey Dovey or anything else we can call you without your wife and/ or the woman you're with, getting crazy. Silly man. Nice mustache by the way. Who's that guy the fish is holding? Riley and I used to go fishing-a lot- until we agreed that ON THE WATER was like a bar-b-q; He does the cooking! I'll explain. He would drag me to every kind of fishing there was, because he hated to go alone. One day we went to Mariners' Museum in the spring or summer. I believe the bait of choice was blood worms. The lunch was ham sandwiches. The book I brought was, new. After loading, arranging, motoring, picking the spot and baiting, we waited. No talking, of course. So I took my shirt off and laid on the back of the boat to sun and read. It did not take long for him to decide this was not a good spot after all and we had to move. Why this was a concern for me I did not know, as I was very happy with the spot and my book, which was new. So we loaded in the rod and bait and arranged everything in the bottom of the boat and picked another spot, by the trees. I start to read again but he says to me, "The bait is on your end-bait my hook. "BLOOD-WORMS! ECK!!!! So I do. Then he decides he wants a sandwich and would I hand him a drink and bait the spare rod because we might get lucky. So I do. I guess it took him three bites of that sandwich before he realizes there was no sink to wash my hands....... He throws the sandwich overboard then ( and I know he loss his mind) threw my book overboard, which was NEW! Well Hey Boy I was awake now. Green sparks flew from my eyes. He says to me. I want you here with me, not in a book. But I'm not aloud to talk, I said. Still, he says. With me. Now guys, you should know by now, when your wife does exactly what you say instead of what you meant to say, it's best to realize what she's saying to you is, "we made a deal and you're breaking it-I would prefer you did not!". Especially with the green sparks. OK. We are by the trees and he gives me an ore and says paddle along the shore, "I'm sure there are fish under those tree roots. He is at the front and I'm paddling from the back, per instructions. We are in among the branches but not alone, a snake has come for a drink by route of a branch, the same branch that was in front of his face. ROW, ROW, he screams, as he puts both hands in the water and starts back paddling. I do, (exactly. per instructions) the snake joins us, he leaves, the snake leaves and I keep paddling. So you see my dear friends, it is a common law (written in stone, no doubt) that when you have a Bar-B-Q, the men do the cooking. And when you go fishing, the men FISH. (Especially if you have a NEW book.) Lots of love, Linda May ' 66

From Colin Faison ('58) of VA - 09/04/06 - "Wayback machine":
Hello again Carol; Reading the newsletters makes me think of some friends I had that I have not heard of for a long time. Maybe some of the alumni might be able to bring me up to date on them. I also used to live in Stuart Gardens on 19th Place; a little street only one block long, right behind the shopping center. Ah what memories that brings back; especially on baking days when the smell of fresh baked bread would roll back our way !! The Rosenwassers used to live on
that street also, right across the street. One of the people I used to hang
around with was a boy named

From My #5 Son,
Nathaniel (Harty - Hillsboro HS, IL -
'97 - of IL) - 09/04/06:
Hey Mom, I couldn't seem to find Shelby Foote on either the Famous Marines or the Famous Soldiers pages. He served in both branches. I've been reading his The Civil War: A Narrative, and the "About the Author" section in the second book talked about his being a captain. So, I did a little Google action, and found this obituary which talks a bit about his service: http://books.guardian.co.uk/obituaries/story/0,,1518756,00.html Love ya, and talk to ya later.
GASP!!!
What an egregious
oversight on my part!

JUST THINK, ELVIS WOULD BE 71 THIS YEAR!
If Elvis had lived longer, he possibly would have re-written, "Are You Lonesome Tonight." Here's how it might have turned out. Turn up speakers and sing along! http://mywebpages.comcast.net/jwwaller/elvis/
This would be hysterically funny - if if
weren't so very true! WILD GIGGLES!!!

From Chandler Nelms (Hampton HS - '63) of MD - 09/04/06:
Okay, you let me off easy this time. Thanks, Dearie.
Certainly, Luv!
Speaking of birthdays, mine is somewhat unique. 12345. Or 012345 to be exact. January (01) the twenty-third (23), 1945 (45). When I‘m asked for my birthday, I just say 12345. Then there’s a pause of silence, and then there’s either a reply “you’re kidding, aren’t you” or “hey, that’s really cool”. I have never known anyone else with that birth date EXCEPT my high school classmate, Byron Luna. We always communicate on our birthdays and sign our emails and birthday cards to each other 12345. Maybe we should determine who was born first on that day. The we could be 123451 and 123452. Ha, Ha. J Chandler Nelms You DO
have the world's greatest birthday, Chandler Darlin'! And I say, "Yes, not only that, but he's as gloriously beautiful now as ever he was back in the days when we used to feign drowning at the beach so that he (the quintessential blond lifeguard) would come dashing in the waves to save us!" And they say, "Do tell". So I do. This is all true, by the way, every word of it. I have witnesses. Thanks
again, Gorgeous!

Dear Carol,
Dear Carol, This has nothing to do with your Reunion plans or is it meant to distract your thinking in any way. That's
okay, Herbie Darlin'! I have a Hound Dog
and two cats and I love them all but, My Hound Dog travels everywhere with
me and my two cats are happy to just stay at home. I knew you would want
to know that.

From Jay Styles ('68) of VA - 09/05/06:
Greetings Carol,
Hope you enjoyed your trip back to Virginia
and survived the diminished storm. While you were in the mountains, you
should have gone up I-81 a little further. Just north of Harrisonburg
there is a little place called the Bar-B-Que Ranch, get this, they still
have curb service. Anyway, they had one of their cruise-ins, people
from all over come and participate. Over 250 registered cars, old
muscle cars, antiques etc., and at least 250 more that did not
register. It was great, neat cars, poodle skirts, pegged pants, DA's,
good food, and gray hair! The next night, they closed down Court Square
and had a lot of the cars on display again. A side note concerning the
Ranch, one of the waitresses there, Til, has been working there
since 1947, now that HAS to be some kind of record. If you ever get the
chance, you have to stop by. Also, last month we took the top off of
the super-skate and went to Winchester to have a late lunch at the Olive
Garden, and discovered a drive-in theatre still in business on Route
11! Didn't know that there were any left. Kids now days don't know
what they're missing.
That is soooo cool!!! Since you're bound and determined to list me in the famous soldiers home or was it page, what information do you need?
Well,
now the we have your picture in uniform
