In Celebration of MHS Class of 1958

In Celebration of MHS Class of 1958

A Tribute and Celebration

We were the class of 1958, members of the Greatest Generation as well as children of the Greatest Generation. Born in 1940, we are also called members of the Traditional Generation.

Our childhood, post World War II, "was the best of times . . . it was the age of wisdom . . . it was the epoch of belief . . .it was the season of Light . . . it was the spring of hope . . . we had everything before us . . .we were all going direct to Heaven . . . ." (A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens.) At least, that's the way I felt about it. We were truly blessed.

David James is Practicing!!

Y'all all know that David James has been threatening us if we don't post. This is his latest threat: "If y' all don't start posting some of your songs and stuff, I'm going to run butt nekkid thru the lobby of the Silver Star Casino to begin our reunion. It won't be pretty!"

I just want you to know that he has been seen practicing so hurry folks. He has been caught on camera. This is an emergency.

But you promised! You said you only wanted this video to have and to hold. Something to view before you went to sleep each night. I sent it to you in good faith. My promise still stands, though. I won't post that "special" one you sent me. of you...

I couldn't help it. Please forgive. Besides I wasn't the first one to expose you to the world. Remember Michael's statute? You must learn to keep your clothes on - even if the artist says that he works for the Vatican.

What special one? The one of me in the red hat with my little Tashee? Oh please - not that one.

Yeah, you're right. But you told me, "just be your normal shy self when he comes over with his camera." I shoulda known when he came skipping in, whistling a Broadway show tune and started talking with that lisp...

I have always been quick to post in various forums. However I am not sure what would be most entertaining ... I know my post must rank fairly low on the scale ... and the prospect of David streaking through the casino ... well we could explain that the slots treated him badly, he not only lost his shirt but ...

So I am torn between seeing a show and posting. I am thinking the show is going to win.

I want all y'all to remember my motto as ya'll watch me in this video which was posted surreptitiously and without any warning given to me.

"Beauty is just a light switch away."

I've always tried to live by this.

David, someone suggested that we might get more response to the blog if you promised to streak if we DID use the blog instead of not using it...how about it?

Where is the duck joke now. I've looked everywhere?

Hey, Any Mouse!

Why do you think I've been working out 3 days a week for the last 13 years? Getting in shape for a nekkid run , of course. Couldn't end my only chance at "show" business because of that— oh, what's it called? Well, I don't know the common or street name but I looked it up and the scientific, clinical term for this "mature" male affliction is mantit-itis. I'll be there with my clothes off. Men, lock up your ladies! Size matters.

The duck joke? It came up lame and we had to put him down. Poor thing. Only 2 years old, too.

By the way, where is the question mark after the "where is the duck joke now." Punctuation is your friend.
