FOR THE RECORD:
I'm pretty sure I neglecteed to pay the cost of domain name for
AlumniSandstorm.com. IF I can't get it back, Richlandbombers.com will go
down, too since alumnisandstorm.com is hosting richlandbombers.com
There's a new outfit that took over iPower.com hosting and I'm waiting
for them to call me now.
Note to Pete BEAULIEU ('62): Pete I added you to the email list since I it
looks like the website might be gone..
Every time I sit down to work on the computer, I get more and more
frustrated. I need a magnifying glass to see what's on the screen AND
everything is blurry and kinda foggy looking. Eye doc does't have a
solutiioin.
Also, ever since I had the china viruus (3 years ago) I still have
trouble remembering how to do some stuff on the computer... very
frustrating...

Re: Jeanette DUNCAN Mefford ('54-RIP)
Jimbo....so sorry to hear about your beautiful wife's passing...I know she
has been struggling, but it is always a shock when it happens.....no matter
how long they have been ill it is a jolt. I hope that you have your family
around for support......keep yourself busy....I hope to get up there at
least one more time, and I will let you know if that happens.....take care.

Re: if it ain't one thing its another!
Just home from Bakersfield! a week ago I woke up so sick I could not get
out of bed. ( and I had to pee real bad)! to make a short story long, I will
fill you in. I woke up throwing up my socks! strong pain across my diaphragm
finally got to a phone and called my caretaker and she rushed me to the
local hospital. where they held me about 24 hours. Still unable to hold
anything down, they did a cat scan Found 2 stones in my bile duct. one about
a half inch and one about 1 1/2. and a piece of Gallbladder left over from
original surgery some 14 years ago. The endocrinologist was able to remove
the smaller stone. The other one and the worse one will have to be slice and
dice procedure. Meanwhile back at the ranch, I am still hurting, still
upchucking. even water won't stay down. I feel so weak that even peeing is
an ordeal. No strength no energy!
All I can say is "DAMN" I have enough problems without inventing more!
Rex HUNT 53wb: from lovely downtown Hanford. CA where the medical
profession is rated right behind the call--girl and only slightly a
head of the Police!

for 3/6:
A trifecta of "Happy Birthdays!" for Diane and Sue HALE and Ray WELLS (all
'54)
Hope that long list at the bottom of today's Alumni Sandstorm wasn't too
depressing although loosing friends and fellow classmate is not the happiest
thing in the world.
