05/26/09 09:29 AM #211     Michael Engel well speaking of cooking I will soon post my recipe for my famous possum balls.(except for secret marinade).

05/26/09 06:35 PM #212     Steve McLaughlin I can't remember, but I think it might have been Merc Bond. Hell, Most of the time I can't remember what I did yesterday. It may have been Carol Gough. She was always good for things like that. Oh well, after being in politics during the 90s, I've been called so many things that Sugar Bear is probably one of the better names I've had. See you soon. Steve

05/26/09 06:36 PM #213     William "Chip" Madsen Glad Ron corrected the record about cooking. Ron may be a trash cooker, but I was probably trailer trash. On the other hand, we knew how to cook. By the way, glad to see that Jack had the cohones to post his pix. Speakin' of trash, it looks like a few of the guys still need to grow a pair after all the trash talk. Jack, what are you doing with such a gorgeous granddaughter? Looks like she got all of Penny's genes.

05/26/09 06:38 PM #214     William "Chip" Madsen Steve, I hear ya about the names. I was on the school board up here in New Jersey. Where do you think Tony Soprano learned his vocabulary? Jersey politics.

05/27/09 08:56 AM #215     Steve McLaughlin Just spoke with Jackie and caught up a bit with him. Man, it's great to hear from everyone and reconnect. I know I say this time and again, but it really seems as though 1969 was yesterday. Except for the occasional lapse in memory-probably good in some cases-I have vivid recollections of all those good days. What a place and time to become an adult. We'll be in on Thursday and I'll call as soon as I get up and going. At my age, that's usually about 4:30 am. I'll see you all next week. Steve

05/27/09 11:27 AM #216     Donna Samples (Pintsak) Good Lord, I'm off line for a couple of days and things really degenerate. I'm now in the state of Florida, I had forgotten how humid it can get down south. Frog legs and gator and all sorts of people can cook it??? What has happened to these classmates? Possum grits? Ron, no blackberry, I like to hide out from time to time. Looking forward to seeing everyone soon!

Don't worry about Samples and her sissy left coast whining! We can get that taken care of Saturday. Heck of a day yesterday. Steve McL called me in the am, Gary Teater in the afternoon and Frank Tabernilla last night. Talked to Bubba last week and Wilson and Meehan a couple of days ago. Things are good 75.

05/29/09 10:25 AM #221     Barbara Dickson (McCain) Hola! Let me add my remembrances (foggy as they may be) about 'Sugar Bear'. I believe that Pam Hunt nick named him as he was always so kind and huggable! Looking forward to seeing all. Barbara

05/29/09 11:23 AM #222     Steve McLaughlin So, it was Pam Hunt, heh? I knew it was one of the really nice people. Good to know after all these years.

05/29/09 11:31 AM #223     Barbara Dickson (McCain) Message to Jim! Sorry I didn't see your post of ages ago, and no I NOT a Cowboys fan, HATE Jerry Jones. I AM a Mav's fan tho - and there is always next year for them. Excited about seeing everyone, wish and hope our friend Pam Hunt Graham can make it and everyone keep her in your prayers for her husband Bill. M&M Hunt would love to hear from y'all, they are still on Lagoon Drive - go see them and give them a hug.

05/29/09 03:54 PM #224     Steve McLaughlin John, Did you get the email I sent you with the photo? Steve

05/29/09 08:28 PM #225     Steve McLaughlin I tried, but for some reason I kept getting an error message. Jack said it will be at the reunion, blown up.

05/30/09 08:28 AM #226     Donna Day (Bailey) We need to organize the food for the beach party.. If you can bring something please let us know.. e mail me back and tell me what you can bring.. Here are some suggestions. Chicken wings chips and dip veggies and dip cheese/ crackers We are ordering pizza.. and there will be beer, water, soda. So byob anything else you drink. Come by early if you want to enjoy the beach and help Ron and Russ set up. We will have a few surprises so come on by.. Evening activites start around 6... we can stay until 1AM.. The guys are setting up around 1PM. It should be close to a full moon and if the weather holds we should have a gorgeous night. LET US KNOW IF YOU ARE COMING !!!!

05/31/09 07:07 AM #227     William "Chip" Madsen Hmmmm. So Jack thinks that Donna will bring with her some sissy, left coast whining? I wonder what he really thinks? How about a Northeast Liberal?

05/31/09 12:10 PM #228     Steve McLaughlin Heading to Tallahassee in about three hours for a state meeting tomorrow and then Tuesday taking off for Palm Beach County. Let's see, if I go the same route we took when we moved to Florida (Hwy 90, Rte 1, and A1A)in 1966, we should be there sometime Saturday or Sunday. I think progress can often be a good thing. See you mid-week. I hope everyone travels safely. Steve

05/31/09 04:17 PM #229     Patti Jackson (Weeks) Hi everyone! Just thought I'd let you know how things are going so far. Left Benson for L.A. on the 21st...9 1/2 hrs, because traffic was kind to us in Phoenix & only a couple of short slowdowns in L.A., which is unheard of. Oh, by the way, we aren't in an RV, I sold that the minute we bought our house. Anyway, picked up Roger & Glenys the next day & drove to Vegas, where we spent a couple of days, then started off for Boulder, CO..a day & 1/2 drive..stayed a couple of days with a friend of ours, & partied our brains out! Lots of fun! Headed from there to Tenn., arrived yesterday at my Mom & Dad's, just west of Nashville. I'm at Cheryl's right now (she lives up the country driveway from Mom & Dad) using her computer, while she & Tim have taken Steven, Roger, & Glenys to Music Row (or whatever it's called) to see where the Grand Ole Opry was, see some honkey-tonks where some of the famous people got their start, & stuff. Cheryl & Tim know alot more about that than I do, & I was happy to turn over the tourist guide to them! I've had some adjusting to do, because Glenys is a photographer & I wasn't stopping enough for pictures, so I have to be better at stopping to smell the roses. Tomorrow, we head to WPB...we have 4 days to make a 15 hr. drive, so I'll be making amends & trying to be best little tourist that I can be! See you Thursday!

06/01/09 10:55 AM #230     Barbara Dickson (McCain) On bring transplants: Mary Jane I think you are right. We also came to FL in 1961, we were part of the Pratt & Whitney transfer from Hartford. We drove down US 1 - in those days a 2 lane 'highway' w/ all kinds of crazy tourist attractions along the way. It was also the time of the build up to the Cuban missle crisis and we often had to stop and let miles of troops and tanks pass. Altho I was only 10, I remember the miles and miles of them - we would stop for them to pass and then they would pull over and let civilians pass. Somber thing even for a kid. But of course once we got there it was sunshine and palm trees.

06/01/09 11:19 AM #231     David Ellrich Many thanks to Patty and Russ Ruskay for allowing us to have our final meeting at their beautiful home in Jupiter. It is a miracle the agenda actually was covered.

06/01/09 04:44 PM #232     William "Chip" Madsen Barbara, I remember the Cuban Missile Crisis from a different perspective. I remember the A-bomb drills in 6th grade at Palm Beach Gardens Elementary School with us hiding under our incredibly indestructible desks (a lot of good that would have done). I also remember cheering the jets that were flying over our school on their way to Cuba only 90 miles away from Key West. My mom used our hallway to build our bomb shelter. Fascinating in hindsight.

06/02/09 08:01 AM #233     Donna Day (Bailey) The reunion is just around the corner and I need help with door prizes.. so far we have a weekend in Key Largo and a fishing trip .. It would be nice to have 3 more prizes.. We chose not to have a raffle.. more money, more money.. so if you can can contribute something.. we would really apprecitate it. (Think regifting- whoever gave you that useless gift(to you) won't be at the reunion.) Let me know asap so I can move on to something else.. Donna

06/02/09 10:03 AM #234     Jim Metcalf Took a little vacation from our message forum,but it has been pretty interesting watching all this previous wit surfacing 40 years later.I talked to Steve Mclaughlin 4or5 weeks ago and told him to get on the forum and get the trash started,but he seemed to think we had moved beyond that,and our memories probably weren't that good,little did he know.Anyway I got this message from the Judge today or maybe I should say "HIS HONOR",tell him what you think.Three days and counting call everybody.... _______ Jimmy Keep things (including Doll) under control till I get there Friday night jack _______ Jack, I understand your on the west coast Friday and may be late,unacceptable, your our leader.Can you imagine how history would have been changed if George, George Washington that is, would have been late. Tell those superior, pompous _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _, you are the PRESIDENT and must be on your way. Hell get off your wallet, charter a HELLICOPTER, there's a helopad on top of the Marriott. Whhat an entrance. Make us all Proud. Come on guys tell him what you think........ JIMMY

06/02/09 05:47 PM #235     Ann Woodward (Statler) Donna (Samples), actually it was my Grandmothers car and we went egging, not to Dunkin Donuts, tell the truth old girl! I was supposed to be babysitting my brother, it is a wonder he survived! The car broke down too and remember those drunk guys who helped us? Franny was with us too, wasn't she? Did they have Dunkin Donuts back then? Donna (Day), I will bring some sort of food to the beach party. I plan on being there early too to help you guys. I hope it doesn't rain. 9PM, Jack, hopefully we will remember your arrival at that late time. You remember the class slogan: booze and something and something are fine, we're the class of "69". Come to think of it I can't even remember!? Man, old age sucks!
