Place: KC, MO Comments: Well, darn!
Place: Chiefs Kingdom Comments: Happy Playoffs Saturday, everyone! I know that I am hoping against hope, as Tom and his fellow Cheatriots are quite talented - but... GO CHIEFS!!!!!!! How great would a ROYALS championship and a CHIEFS championship in the same season be?!?!?!? Love to all - Carol
Place: Robert Faries Memorial Comments: I wanted to make sure everyone saw the invite for the memorial service for Robert Faries. David put it on FB but I know some of you aren't on FB. Sorry, but it's a large image. ![]()
Place: Reunion Hotel Update! Comments: I've been asked by several people if we could get the SOC $85 rate for more than just the 2-night reunion dates. I've been negotiating and great news!! Yes, we can have the great rate of $85 per night for 9-21-16 thru 9-27-16. I tried it out using the link on our site under the "50th Reunion" tab. Just scroll down to Hotel Reservations and the red link takes you directly to the Hyatt Auto Reservation system and our rate is keyed into it! Slick! Be smart - make your reservations early so you don't forget and are left out because the rooms are full or the cut-off date has passed. Remember, I want to "See you in September!"
Place: Mystic band member dies Comments: Robert Faries passed away Saturday, 1-9-16. He was a member of the Mystics and played with the group at our 45th reunion. He was an excellent Lead Guitar player and toured with many famous groups. He pronounced his name as "Ferris" and didn't like it when it was pronounced as it looks! He should have graduated from SOC in '65 but left sch to tour. He came and went at SOC but finally graduated in '67. David Mitchell & Robert have been life-long friends. RIP Robert. My condolences David on the loss of your dear friend.
Place: Free Ink Comments: If anyone is using an HP Office Jet 6500A printer that uses the " 920 " series of ink cartridges and would like some free ones, let me know. My HP I've had 1 mo shy of 5 yrs died on me last week. All efforts to resuscitate were futile. I have the 3 color cartridges that are 85% full and a brand new black XL. I bought a new HP Sunday and Don asked if it took the same cartridges. After laughing for 5 minutes, I said of course not, how would HP make all that money if more than one printer used the same size. That would be too easy for us. Let me know if you use the 920 cartridges and want these.
Place: Richardson Comments: Wishing Donnie & Barbara Fugate a very Happy 48th Anniversary!!! Wow, that's getting close to how old I am. Hope you are able to celebrate this day with each other or at least tonight with a great dinner!!! Love you both and congrats on 48 memorable years!
Place: Allen, Texas Comments: Sammy, sounds like you and I have the same toes!! LOL I have the same problem and need to have surgery. Waiting until I have the funds, though! I have had deformed feet all of my life. I was supposed to either have surgery to rearrange the bones in my feet, or wear leg braces. But, I threw a fit (when I was about 10 years old) and didn't have to do either. I just had to wear big, ugly, clod-hopper corrective shoes. I hated them. My problems left me severely pigeon-toed. But, joining the marching band at Zumwalt, I threw away the corrective shoes and had to march with straight feet. That helped me more than anything. But, the older I have gotten, the worse the problems have become. Interested in talking with you about your surgery when we get together again. Seems like the Smiths, Fuentes, and McKees were talking about going out for dinner one night soon. We will have to DO that real soon! Glad to hear you are doing well. Miss seeing you and Sarah!
Place: West of Grosvenor Comments: Sam, I would never make fun of someone's' misfortune especially related to health issues. As a matter of fact I wish you a speedy recovery and if you have any complications or set backs just call on me and I will be glad to send you a toe-truck.
Place: Richardson Comments: You got a point Richard. Bad choice of words on my part! Let's just say that some of our group want to drive around and check out all the changes in the Big D area. They also want to visit with family and friends. OK, that sounds much better.
Place: Calif. Comments: SNL, I don't need to come all the way to OC-Dallas to see a drive-by; we're loaded with them.
Place: Richardson Comments: Well dang it James! I hate y'all will be cruising on our reunion dates. I announced the date on Nov 11, 2015 thinking that would be plenty of time, but you guys book far in advance. I'm starting to get inquiries about the reunion and even some RSVPs. No, an RSVP isn't necessary as the only way you can really RSVP is by sending in the registration form with your check! But that is a few months off. Right now I'm waiting on a written confirmation from my coordinator at the hotel regarding how many "extra" nights we can get for the same $85 rate. I made a request for Wed(9-21) thru Mon (9-26) of our reunion weekend. I'll see what I get. Always ask for more so you have room to negotiate. I'll let everyone know as several people coming long distances have said they want to arrive early and leave later so they can do some drive-by reminiscing.
Place: Lake Tawakoni Comments: I'm blessed to have Sarah helping me. I have to have my foot elevated all day. I can only get up to use the facilities and take a shower. Sarah fixes my meals. This is not fun, but it got to the point where it was too much pain walking. Jack, Smiley and Richard, no feet jokes or I might have to go toe to toe with you.
Place: Melissa TX Comments: Happy belated birthday wishes to Sally, Mike and David. Hope you are getting better, Sam. My former boss had that surgery-not for sissies that's for sure!
Place: Valley Mills Yx Comments: Well damn... Kay and I will be on a European cruise celebrating our 30th anniversary. Fly out of DFW on the 23rd. |
