Comments: Doug, what a find!!
Comments: Paper Doll by The Mills Brothers - written by Johnny S. Black, 1915 - lyrics as recorded by The Mills Brothers in 1942 I'm gonna buy a Paper Doll that I can call my own A doll that other fellows cannot steal And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes Will have to flirt with dollies that are real When I come home at night she will be waiting She'll be the truest doll in all this world I'd rather have a Paper Doll to call my own Than have a fickle-minded real live girl I guess I had a million dolls or more I guess I've played the doll game o'er and o'er I just quarrelled with Sue, that's why I'm blue She's gone away and left me just like all dolls do I'll tell you boys, it's tough to be alone And it's tough to love a doll that's not your own I'm through with all of them I'll never ball again Say boy, whatcha gonna do? I'm gonna buy a Paper Doll that I can call my own A doll that other fellows cannot steal And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes Will have to flirt with dollies that are real When I come home at night she will be waiting She'll be the truest doll in all this world I'd rather have a Paper Doll to call my own Than have a fickle-minded real live girl
Comments: Girls, let's bring back the paper doll. Brenda, you in? We can rebrand ourselves as the SOC '63 Paper Dolls. Heck fire, we graduated in paper robes, and half the boys we know (including my husband David) were paper boys at some point. We ARE the Paper Dolls!
Comments: Lynell your pictures are great!! Sorry I missed this one..I had every intention to go and just forgot....also saw Lonnie's pictures on Facebook...thank you both for keeping us up to date..
Comments: Thanks, Lynell. The mention of paper dolls reminded me of a time about 8 years ago and I kept my 9 and 6 year-old nieces for a couple of hours one afternoon so their mom could get some serious shopping done! For years I always tried to keep games, toys, etc. on hand for those odd occasions when I had young children in my home. To my surprise, there was a book of modern paper dolls. We each picked one out and probably spent over an hour coloring outfits and mix-and-matching. I can still remember the girls having a blast and taking their dolls home with them.
Comments: Oh, Sharon. Poor you! Feel better soon. It seems like when ya get sick this time of year, it hangs on about twice as long as it should. My aunt used to give me paper dolls when I was laid up. That's what you need, a nice new book of Katy Keen paper dolls. AND she made me tapioca pudding, the real kind with milk and eggs. Being sick wasn't so bad in the good old days! 
Comments: I wish I could have been there Saturday, but you really didn't need someone with 102 fever hugging on everybody. Whatever this crud is, I wish it would go away now. Feeling better but not great even after a Z-Pak. Can't wait to see everyone again soon.
Comments: I note that South Oak Cliff High School is one of the Dallas County early voting sites. It might be fun to go there and vote!
Comments: Thanks, Charlotte. You didn't get to see all the shaky pix. Wish I could learn how to hold a camera steady. It's too much like walking and chewing gum. I'm not very good at that either. ha.
Comments: Lynell, I love your photos because the people are smiling. They knew their pic was being taken. Thanks for posting.
Comments: Peaches sent me the reunion info for this website, and it's now on the Events Page. Check it out!
Comments: Today's SOC luncheon at El Fenix was great fun. Many thanks to that hostess with the absolute mostest, Cynthia Huse, for setting this up. The few pictures I took are now on the Images page. Doggoned if I didn't miss an entire side of our table, including my husband. Danny Willard, and the Collinses and goodness knows who else. I'm hoping Lonnie or Cynthia will bail me out. There were people at this luncheon who've never been to a SOC luncheon before. I just love that!! Norma Salinas and I used to walk home from Lisbon together, and Laura Chovanetz was a Boude Storey pal. Gale Ward and I have been Facebook friends for a while, and now we're real in-person friends. It was just wonderful to see everyone. Now look at my shaky photos I took today. *Cynthia and Lonnie, HELP!
Comments: Gary, great to see you here. Send your address and I will get the invitation to you in the mail this weekend. peacheswalker@gmail.com
Comments: Hi, Gary! So nice to see your name on here. Looking forward to saying hello in person.
Comments: Gary, if we don't have a current address for you, go to Peaches' email site now and give it to her and she will send you all the info for the 50th Reunion. Looking forward to seeing you.
Comments: WOW! Gary!!! Where have you been?? So good to see your post! Hope all is well with you!!!
Comments: It has been a long time!! When is the reunion?? I'm coming to this one.
Comments: Oh, boy! Got my reunion invitation in the mail today. Thank you, committee!
Comments: Mike, let us know how she is doing. Can you send me her address to peacheswalker@gmail.com
Comments: Thanks, all of you, for your kind birthday wishes. Mabye some of you saw my beautiful granddaughter who was paralyzed last summer in car wreck, on channel 11 news at 6AM & 4PM on Sat. She was doing a plug for the Project Walk Org. who are helping her rehab. Thanks again--mike
Comments: SOC63 committee is getting together tomorrow to get our 50th Reunion letter and invitation put together to mail. Those in town should receive it by Tuesday. Thanks to those who sent me your change of address so your letter will not go to LA LA Land. My email address is peacheswalker@gmail.com if you think you need to send me any changes do to TODAY.
Comments: Ginger, you didn't miss anything. I was just remarking on the deaths of two well-known gentlemen with remarkable voices. Shea was 104 and I feel certain that if Billy Graham's health hadn't declined, Shea would still be singing.
Comments: Charles, thanks for the invitation. I would love to come some other time. Our committee is getting our 50th reunion letter and invitation out this weekend. I have heard great stories about the Rising Star and know how gracious the two of you are.
Comments: Carol Gentry, how nice to hear from you! I hope you stir up some friends from JNB here. I think 6 or 8 grade schools fed into SOC, so we're a mixed-up bunch. I was a Lancaster Road Scholar from Lisbon. Can't believe our 50th reunion is almost here. We just graduated yesterday.
Comments: I did not graduate with you all, but I went to John Neely Bryan through the 7th grade and was in grade school with a lot of you. I've just heard about Jimmy Nicodemus--whom I remember distinctly from the first grade. What a loss. If anyone remembers me, I would love to hear from you by email. My best friend (from second grade at John Neely Bryan) is Carol Campisi, who did graduate with you. She's the one told me about Jimmy Nic. I hope you all enjoy your 50th class reunion this year. When I was in the 7th grade, our family expanded through the coming of both my youngest sister and my grandmother--so our house was way too small and we moved after school finished that year. I graduated from Sunset in 63. Take care--
Comments: Yes, back then one could order a QUEEN BEE (the insect) from the Sears Farm Catalogue............which, was news to me when I took the order...the other phone operators laughed at me all the time because I was so "catalogue green" and surprised so many times at what people could order.
Comments: Charles Johns, that's mighty nice of you to include us young whippersnappers in your generous invitation! Thanks for posting. I hope some people are able to take advantage of your kindness! Charlotte, oh, my goodness. I'd not heard the term step-ins since my aunt used to say it. I know what step-ins are, and I am hesitant to ask what a Queen Bee is. Are you talking about the insect?? |
