Re: All Bomber Lunch ~ aka Patti's All Bomber Lunch

It is better late than never. Last month's lunch was here and
gone before I realized it and never sent in a notice. This month
I have almost missed it. It will be the second Saturday, as
usual. At J D Diner in West Richland, as usual. It will start
about noon, as usual. There will be lots of good conversation
and visiting, as usual. Any Bomber is welcome to come and bring
a guest, spouse, or unrelated Bomber, as usual. We hope to see a
good crowd there, as usual.

WHEN: Saturday, August 8, 2015 (always 2nd Saturday)
TIME: We gather about noon or 12:30
WHERE: JD DINER, 3790 West Van Giesen, West Richland
       (Second building on the right after crossing the 
        Yakima River Bridge.)

My last day in London I went in to hear a lovely Organ concert
at Methodist Central Hall (right opposite Westminister Abbey).
it also happened to be the day of the bicycle marathon when
27,000 bicyclists descended on London plus their supporters!!
Fortunately it was a lovely warm day for all, and enjoyed by
all.

My last shot is of my host and I at Heathrow before my flight.
We'd met as Methodist exchange students to Holland in 1962 and
have kept in contact over the years. It was a lovely time, even
if I didn't Get to meet the Queen!!

Now back to reality in a surprisingly not humid Hope!!

Re: guess I'll just never know

I've often wondered what it would be like to grow up the only
boy in a bevy of Bomber-babes... I mean just the shear number 
of babes walkin' thru the house friends of sisters is mind
boggling... or as an old buddy of mine who became the Dean of
the Law Schools at ASU and UNLV used to say "mind boggling and
totally incomprehensible"... I guess John COLE ('66) would
know... well this guy was in John's class and he would know as
well... gasp... but as with all the greener grass I am sure they
would tell me it wasn't all milk and honey... anyway, unless I
come back in the next life in a famblie like that I guess I just
hafta wonder... besides... since I don't remember any past lives
how would I know to answer the question... I'd just think it was
normal... been watching a show called "Proof" where a rich guy
and a doctor are trying to find out what lies after what we 
see as death... didn't think I'd like it but I do... pretty
interesting if they don't muck it up with too much mushy stuff
like they always seem to do in the shows I like... just get on
with the show... let us imagine the rest like we used to do inna
old days when the Beach Boys hadda take out "sleep together" 
in "Wouldn't it be nice" and the sausage guy hadda take "a
Helluvaman" outa "Big Bad John"... get on with it dang it! Well
since I won't find out first hand I'll just say HAPPY BIRTHDAY,
Mike SHEERAN ('66) on your special day, August 6, 2015!!!!!!!!
