A. S. S. ~ Alumni Sandstorm ~ 12/31/23 - HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6 Bombers sent stuff: Rex HUNT ('53) Mike CLOWES ('54) Karen COLE ('55) Nancy MALLORY ('64) Jim HEIDLEBAUGH ('65) Patti McLAUGHLIN ('65) ******************************************************** HOME ADDRESS: Maren Smyth 144 Briant Street Gretna, LA 70056 ******************************************************** >>From: Rex HUNT ('53) Re: borrowing from Shakespeare! Much ado from not a HELL OF ALOT! Hear it is: another yule log time: so I am logging in! Have any of you had phone problems? My phone has suddenly taken to sounding off at very odd times with a sound that is reminiscence of the police sires in Europe, with an incessant BE-Boo Be-Boo Be-Boo sound that can last up to 6 or 7 minutes. It comes at all hours of the day or night. AT&T hasn't got a clue. At first they did not believe me. So I recorded several of these alarms and played it for them. They haven't got a clue. I think it is tied to those Filipina Phone scams. I have insulted them in 3 languages (all profane and most direct) each time they call so this may be some form of retribution. To all my Jewish friends I wish you a happy Hanukkah, to all my German friends I wish you a lovely tree lighting! To all my Japanese friends, I wish you a happy shogun Santa. the rest of you -- For lease Navidad! My apologies to Jose Feliciano I learned the names of all of Santa's reindeer. from my 6 year old great grand daughter. in case you don't know them all --- Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, Rudolph and of course the mean one "Olive". as in the song Olive the other Reindeer used to laugh and call him names Addendum #1 So I had to spend Christmas eve in the Stable with Olive! I found out that all that ringing and alarm stuff with my phone was caused by my ------ Wait for it! ------ Pacemaker! My pacemaker as it turns out, is low on battery power and was also over loaded with data and needs to be downloaded by my "Quasi Cardiologist" and defrocked Proctologist! Unfortunately he is "OUT of the Office" till January 10TH. SO I am stuck with this 1939 Chinese Fire Drill every 4 hours, until Dr. Lobster Fingers returns to do the delicate surgery involved. So till next Time::: be sure to eat your prunes with big spoons! Hear it is: another yule log time: so I am logging in! -Rex Eugene the Sex Machine: ('53 would've been, could've been, should've been but for ever will be a Boise High Brave!) ~ From lovely downtown Hanford, CA ******************************************************** ******************************************************** >>From: Bob Carlson, aka Mike CLOWES ('54) For 12/30: A quick line to wish fellow graduate Phil GANT ('54) a "Happy Birthday" Please, continue having them. For 12/27: Trust no one got a lump of coal in their Christmas stocking. Beside that, it's the day when we all wish Jeannine HUGHES ('54) a "Happy Birthday!. Funny how things work out that way For 12/18: A "Happy Birthday!" to fellow classmate Carole CLARK ('54). Betcha never thought we'd get this far. For 12/16: Today is a twofer; a fellow classmate (whom I scarce remember) and an actor fellow (whom I do). A "Happy Birthday!" to Arlene THRESS ('54) and Terry DAVIS Knox ('65). Just hope that Santa won't forget you. [And my big brother Tim turned 80 on the 16th!!! -Maren] For 12/15: Here's a "Happy birthday!" wish to Dorothy STAMPER ('54). Have a happy and a merry along with reasonable health. For 12/1: A "Happy Birthday!" wish to fellow classmate Pat NORDMAN ('54). Trust this finds you in reasonable health. For 11/27: Hated the sad note at the bottom of the latest AS. [I think he's talking about Don RAY ('54-RIP) - Maren] But, on a happier note, let me say :Happy Birthday!" to Gene STEPHENS ('54). Certainly hope your name won't appear at the bottom of the next issue. -Bob Carlson, aka Mike CLOWES ('54) ~ Silverton, OR ******************************************************** ******************************************************** >>From: Karen COLE Correll ('55) Re: 1950 annual If anyone has a 1950 annual, I would like to buy it. It contains pictures of my four sisters. Contact me at (509) 954-7651. Thanks for your help. -Karen COLE Correll ('55) ~ Nine Mile Falls, Wa ******************************************************** ******************************************************** >>From: Nancy MALLORY Johnson ('64) Merry Christmas to everyone!! Today I will bake a cookie or two. Baked my chocolate applesauce cake yesterday. Don't do as much baking as in past years. Plan to be with my daughter and family after the big day. My son (and distance driver) has to work on the day itself. No little ones anymore -- youngest is 14. The weather should not be too bad. Some rain on Christmas eve and day -- no white stuff. My brother David ('64) is doing well. Has his own apartment and even a cell phone. Our sister Karen ('71) drives him to the store and appointments. If you want to contact him go thru Karen. David is pretty deaf. I see posts about the Spudnut Shop -- sure wish I was close enough to drop by and get some. Sure enjoy hearing news on this site! Thanks Maren. Do we need to send $$$'s? [Since I'm only doing the Sandstorm once or twice a month, I haven't even been asking for $$$. so don't sweat it. -Maren] -Nancy MALLORY Johnson ('64) ******************************************************** ******************************************************** >>From: Jim HEIDLEBAUGH ('65) Happy Birthday to Terry Davis knox on the 16th of December.
