I sure wouldn't want to be in his shoes now! -Barbra Williamson, aka Jeanie WALSH (Gold Medal Class of '63) Simi Valley, CA Home of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Dennis HAMMER ('64) To: David RIVERS ('65) Re: Rambling thoughts In yesterday's post our Sandstorm Barrister said, "... my mind has never been one to hold a single train of thought for very long at one time so if I have rambled forgive me..." I got the same problem, my Sandstorm posts tend to ramble on, but as I am composing them, my mind branches off running into a lot of other directions which in turn form new branches of thought, and so on. If I were to write everything I think of down I would end up writing a tome. I think I have figured it out, it is not ADD or ADHD, it is Bomber Attention Thought Chain Reaction Process, or BATCRP; pronounced "bat-chirp." [My two cents: I thought it was pronounced Bat-Crap. -Maren] Maybe we should do a study and maybe even get a Nobel prize for coming up with it. After all, we who edit and post on the Sandstorm are all Time Magazine's 2006 Person of the year. Now that is something to put on your resume!!! Don't believe me, look it up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_(Time_Person_of_the_Year) -Dennis HAMMER ('64) ~ Now how did I start with rambling and end with Time's Person of the Year??? Must be one small example of BATCRP. ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: David RIVERS ('65) Re: Ohhhhhhhhh the buzzin' of the bees in the lollipop trees and the sodee water fountain; where the lemonade springs and the blue bird sings in the big rock candy mountains... Hi there buckaroos this is your old pal Burt Wells... (I should be careful because those kids from the Uncle Jimmy Clubhouse, some of which still have their membership card and Hi-Spot card in their (his) wallet can get a little competitive)... tho I will say I communicated with Burt for several years up to his passing a few years back... I remember when Burt sat on a flag pole in the Uptown... I must say those were tame times compared to how things have unfolded over the years... Listening to the radio this afternoon "Let's spend the night together" came on and I remember how it was banned in many large cities... dunno about Richland as I was in Vietnam when that song came out I think... I remember clearly, however, the Beach Boys having to take "Wouldn't it be nice" off the shelves and redub "stay" for the word "sleep" and of course there's Big Bad John who started out as a "helluvaman" and ended up a "big, big man"... yes times have changed drastically... In fact, the husband of today's Bomber-babe was a prime example when he had to be on a job about the time of the grageashun ceremony and was not able to get his diploma a day or two early... I guess he finally got it, but it wasn't as easy as HEIDLEBAUGH ('65) and me staggering in the waiting room yelling "Let's have a Heidelberg beer right now... ."... so now we have the diploma boy'z much better half...
