Happy Rosh Hashanah! “Shana Tova - May you be inscribed in the Book of Life!” |
Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
The Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, begins this evening at sunset, ushering in the High Holidays (Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot).
This Holiday celebration repeats around this same time every year:
http://nnhs65.com/10-03-05-NNHS-Happy-Rosh-Hashanah.html
http://nnhs65.com/09-22-06-NNHS-Happy-Rosh-Hashanah.html
http://nnhs65.com/09-12-07-NNHS-Happy-Rosh-Hashanah.html
http://www.nnhs65.com/09-30-08-NNHS-Happy-Rosh-Hashanah.html
http://nnhs65.com/09-18-09-NNHS-Happy-Rosh-Hashanah.html
No doubt most of
us are
probably not personally observing this holiday, but we don't concern ourselves
with such trifling details such as that here. We try to celebrate everything together
as the one big happy family that we are.
So we extend all our best
wishes for all good things for all our friends and family!
Happy Rosh
Hashanah!

Greetings, Don:
Since your name has been battered around,
in a very respectable manner, around the TYPHOON Nation, recently I
thought I would take the liberty and muster the courage to write to
you.
You do not remember me, Class of NNHS 1957,
but I sure remember you and your athletic skills.
Did you retired from the United States
Army...or are you still on Active Duty and assigned to VMI?
Army Strong,
Joseph Madagan
Major of Armor, USA (Ret)

GIGGLES!!!
Now, see, Joe, isn't that
far better than my having to write someone of whom I clearly stand in
total awe, and stammer around, "Duh, s'cuse me, Mr. White, Sir, but, uh,
wal, uh, we wuz wond'rin' ....."

Thanks,
Major Madagan!

Yesterday
afternoon we were partying on our deck and one of the dogs alerted us to
the fact that there was a mountain goat on our friends roof next
door. The goat spent the night up there and has gone up and down
grazing in their yard at intervals this morning. There is a section of
their roof that is low to the ground. Modell and Wally just left for
Florida on Friday! Not too many people have had their house taken over
by a mountain goat!!

Jokes - 09/03/10:Penny Scale A husband stepped on one of those penny scales that tell you your fortune and weight and dropped in a coin. "Listen to this," he said to his wife, showing her a small, white card. "It says I'm energetic, bright, resourceful and a great lover." "Yeah," his wife nodded, "and it has your weight wrong, too." |
