Comments: Hey, Nance, let's face it. Living in Heaven will be far better than living here. I am sure some of you would love to help us get there faster.
Comments: RW -- looked at the math websites you recommended. I probably couldn't do any better. Math was not my strong suite, especially word problems. YIKES!
Comments: Jack, you may have hit on something. Do you think Richard might have been wearing that wig ya'll gave him and the kidnappers mistook him for Elvis!!
Comments: Jack, I would have said something wittier, but the previous posts deemed it inappropriate. It looked like Ronney, Ada & Toni were beating down the gates of Heaven ready to walk in. What's all the rush.
Comments: Take a look at this, These people didn't graduate from SOC. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGW57yV-phU%20 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruIB8z74uPw&NR=1
Comments: Gee KMG, where have you been for the last few months??? It's been on the news and in the papers and everything. I knew it was coming, but didn't remember when till I walked into the post office to check my box and saw the signs. I too have been buying the "forever" stamps but still am caught with 1/2 a roll of "old" stamps and will need to buy some 1 cent stamps after the crowds go down. John, I can't believe that you just stood still with that music playing. I thought, for sure, you would have grabbed a partner and danced around the room, Showing all how it was and should be done. Swirling and swaying, ending with a dip. Probably would have gotten you moved to the head of the line. OK, Juan or Jose or Edwardo or who ever you really are. You can give it up. We know the real Richard Nance is not posting. Your lame comments don't hold a flame to the wit and wisdom of our friend. OH, you might as well set him free, we are NOT paying the ransom either!!
Comments: Karen, I think the Postal Service has been touting the price increase for several months. We stocked up this spring, buying several hundred of the "Forever" stamps. As an investment, they are a capital idea. The increase in tangible value from 41 cents to 42 cents represents a locked-in gain of 2.43%. Which exceeds the paltry 2.25% Chase Bank is now offering on their Certificates of Deposit! Mr. Nance, good to see you on the gb again. Sorry to hear you'll be out of town/country on June 7th.
Comments: So JS, were you in line for the one cent stamps as I was yesterday to go with the book of stamps I purchased last week? Couldn't they have mentioned the imminent price increase then so I wouldn't have had to stand in line again one week later? And they were not playing any music either.
Comments: Your age is showing John. Now a P. Diddy stamp would really make some noise.
Comments: I just got back from the Post Office where they are kicking off the sale of Frank Sinatra commemorative stamps. They even went so far as to have Sinatra music playing in the background. Really. As we stood there in the slow moving line, we were lulled along by the lyrics of Strangers in the Night, Saying Something Stupid Like I Love You, and several others. It almost made the wait tolerable. Almost.
Comments: I just have one thing more to add......we're one heck of a group of caring school friends.....we all know who we are.....one big family caring for another one in need. Personally, I'm very proud to be a part of this group.
Comments: Ada Ann: I am glad you read 90 Minutes in Heaven. I have Don Piper's next book about the situation but it is in MP3 format. I haven't listened to it, yet. How was your Mother's Day? I hope it was wonderful. Linda P.: Glad you, too, got the book. You will definitely be touched by it. Don Piper's description of Heaven is exciting and makes you look forward to being there. And, you cannot help but admire the man with all of your being as you read his torturous up-hill battle to recover, a battle he will be dealing with for the rest of his life. Where most of us would just give up, he endured. I want so much to meet him in person and am praying that I will get to meet him.
Comments: Ronney, I too read the book 90 mins in Heaven....very heartwarming. Linda, I ordered Lizzie's War from Amazon....sounds like my kind of book. I love to read. The money collected is wonderful....I'm sure it will come in handy....so glad that we are a generous bunch and will go to bat for our friends.
Comments: McMakin, the $2155 is the total that came from many different classmates and not from any one person. It was truly amazing what we were able to do in a week through a large collective effort. SOC Friends are the Best!
Comments: Bay Watch, I heard from Steve Gray, Jim Martin, and Cable Guy Don Fugate today. DWF is in for 6-5, the others will let me know. All 3 were very pleased to know they have a chance to lighten your wallet. Cheezehead today said you and I were the Kings of Trash Talk. Harvey Bass taught me everything I know...... |
But like you said . . . we don't pay ransom money, so they might as well let him go. I bet if he sang a few bars for them they'd turn him loose before he finished the second line of Love Me Tender!!
