A short Happy Thanksgiving poem:

It’s time to carve the turkey and mash potatoes, too,
Bake apple pies and pumpkin pies,
OH! – When’s the company due?!

So at this hectic time of year with so much left to do,
Before the feast, to say the least,
We’re thankful, most, for you.


Don't y'all eat too much, and GO BILLS!

Happy Birthday, Dave! Hope it 's a great one! I have lost your email address . . . if you still have mine, please let me know!

At the risk of repeating myself, HAPPY BIRTHTDAY!

I posted another comment, which may have wound up in digital heaven, but I'll go ahead and repeat:

Is it me or is time actually accelerating?

Must be me... Enjoy your special day!!

Happy Birthday Linda!

Is it me or is time actually accelerating?

Probably me...

Hope you enjoy(ed) the day!

Happy Birthday Linda!

The big Seven-Oh! Who'd a thunk it?

If I knew I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself.

Sorry I didn't get around to writing a birthday limerick this year - creativity definitely on the wane.

Hope you had a blast!

Happy Birthday! Hope you had a great day yesterday Geoff! Sorry, I didn't visit the magic typewriter Sunday at all. It's been a busy year - Lori & I have been dealing with a serious health issue and keeping a low profile.
Today would be bad for outside entertaining. Maybe we'll get over your way this Fall!

Birthdays are rude to remind,
The annoying passage of time.
There's no need to worry,
You don't have to hurry,
Have another bottle of wine!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINDA

Let's ring in the new year with cheer,
Eggnog, scotch or cold beer,
Happy New Year to all!
But as I recall,
Didn't we say that last year?

HAPPY NEW YEAR ANYWAY!

Hey Larry - I remember you well from homeroom. Laban / Lawrence, we were always sitting next to each other, and Linda Lauder wasn't far away, either. Nice to see you checking in, hope to see you at the reunion!

Hello Bonnie! Sorry you have to skip another birthday this year. Good deal. Loved the photos of the pups. We adopt adult and senior dogs because they sleep a lot tool I think you and I started out at Roosevelt. It's nice to catch up with old friends!

Happy Birthday Arlene! Hope you are well and surviving the terrible winter. Funny the way time speeds up the older we get. Not, ha-ha funny. Enjoy your special day!

Hey Nancy, I know the name and I know the face but I can't quite remember exactly where or when. But I DO remember your husband! Bill grew up a few houses down from us on Tremont and he graduated with my late brother Jim. Glad to see Bill is still involved in bowling. I remember watching him practice at Kenmore Lanes. It sounded like the pins were exploding! Amazing. Maybe it has something to do with being left handed. My uncle was a southpaw and a good bowler, too. Glad to hear you are both grandparents! It's all good!!

Thanks Geoff, for dropping a line! I moved here in 1983 and I now feel chilly when it drops below 70. What a light-weight... I started writing book reviews for the News because an archivist is not an adrenaline rush kind of job so I wrote short essays for the play programs. I went a little over board on "Christmas Carol," the News theatre critic John Dwyer saw it, and he got me in. Great gig, and John was a great guy.

Great people at Moffit. Let me know if I can do ANYTHING. If you need an errand run (Yeah, a shameless X Country pun) or a rid anywhere, I'm not far away so please don't even hesitate to ask. Send me private message and I'll give you contact info.
Wonderful hearing from you!
