Comments: REALLY? hAAA! NO, I DO NOT WATCH IT, BUT I CAN'T IMAGINE WHY HE WOULD BE ON THERE. HE CAME FROM A DIFFERENT PLANET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Comments: Does anyone watch Celebrity Apprentice?? He is on there this season..I don't think his elevator goes to the top floor ...he definitely came from a different generation of Socites than we did!!!
Comments: Yawn...who is Dennis Rodman? ............................................Just Kidding....................................................... Typical Oak Cliff boy of the 90s.....sigh!
Comments: I hear the 'State Department'....is ignoring Dennis.. Is there a deeper meaning to this trip by Dennis..?? Life gets pretty hilarious at times.. This could be one of those times..
Comments: Johnny, please don't say you've never been internationally embarrassed before now.
Comments: During Dennis Rodman's recent journey to North Korea, I hope that he steered the conversation to something other than his days at good 'ol SOC High. I'd hate for us to be internationally embarrassed.
Comments: That danged unfortunate syntax...that is what the government makes you pay for your trips to Las Vegas...your syntax.
Comments: Charlotte, you're right! After an hour with this iPad, I am smitten! I may have scared the UPS man. This is just the coolest new toy. I have signed up for iPad class at the Apple store. Hope it's iPad For Dummies.
Comments: Lynell, you will love your new iPad! The best part about it is that you can dictate your emails and anything else you need to write like your calendar or notes. Of course, my writing skills and typing skills are going downhill!!! I was a BlackBerry person, but bought the new iPhone. I didn't like typing on that tiny little screen And thought I had made a big mistake Until I discovered I can dictate As I am doing now. Sometimes if I pause, As you see, it adds a capital letter, but I'm getting used to that. Usually I go back and correct it but I'm not this time so that you can see what I'm talking about. All of those capitals you see is where I paused before continuing speaking. Okay,the mention of reunion made me hire a personal trainer to get in shape.... What kind of shape is yet to be determined...hahahahaha!
Comments: No it wouldn't be tacky. Bill will stand at the door waiting or outside and look up and down the street
Comments: Can't talk. Too excited about the reunion, and the fact that my iPad is "Out For Delivery" according to UPS. Would the neighbors think it's tacky if I wait for the brown truck out on the curb?
Comments: Why is it silent again??????? Lynell start talking......charlotte start talking.
Comments: SAVE THE DATE!!!!!! Class of 1963 50th Highschool Reunion October 18 and 19, 2013 Omni Park West Hotel 1590 LBJ Freeway at Luna
Letter will be mailed in April. If you have a change of address email me at peacheswalker@gmail.com.
Comments: Richard, how nice to see you here! ![]() Ken, you are right, my fellow LRS. I, too, was a hall monitor, which proved I was on the right side of the law and was totally against skipping steps on the stairway. I was unsure what to do if someone ever skipped a step under my steely gaze, but it never happened. The power of the badge! ![]() Michael Collins, leave it to one of you slick '64 boys to pick up on my unfortunate syntax.
Comments: Sorry Lynell, I owe you three L's...and I had MISS Stamps married...oh well
Comments: Lynel..Lynel...Lynel, you really thought you'd get that "van go" comment by without notice...it appears you almost did.....Our neighbor jones says He has a hard time understanding why his wife, who has nothing to wear needs four closets to keep it in...Thanks, Blackie
Comments: My, my.....how things have changed. At Lisbon Elementary, some of the more trustworthy Lancaster Road Scholars were chosen to be Hall Monitors. We had a metal, curved badge that was held to your upper arm by a strap. We kept the punk kids in line and were not to be triffled with. Today in the Dallas Morning News there was a quote that caught my attention.....not so much the quote but the person who made the remark, a guy named Craig Miller. His job description? Dallas Independent School District Police Chief Gee, if I had only stuck with my hall patrol job.
Comments: Wow - what a great web-site!! Woke up this morning (great start for a blues song), thinking about old friends, And I couldn't help but wonder, what had become of them. So I logged onto Facebook, and lo and behold There poured forth photos of friends from on old! You just gotta love the technology - who would have ever envisioned the gadgets we have these days. Didn't see here anything about our 50th Reunion - date been set?
Comments: Phil, thanks for coming to watch Terry Monday. He appreciates the support. I wish you had been there Tues night for the packin up and loading the trailer with tack and horse. We could have used your help!!!! Haaaa
Comments: Congratulations to Charlotte's husband for making the finals and ending up in the money in the non-pro cutting horse competition ,at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo!
Comments: Phyllis, I suggest that you are only a victim of the years that you didn't have Ramon Ford for a teacher.
Comments: Oh, Doug, thank you for telling us about Mr. Ford, too. I didn't know he had passed. I dearly loved him and give him personal credit for my having even gone on to college. I was the first in my family to do so. When he asked me about college, I was unsure, and he said, "of course, you're going to college," and that settled that. So I guess he's to blame for my ending up a victim of 21 years of formal education.
Comments: Sharon, I met Ray through Larry Bennett (Class of '65) but in the past few years I've not had much contact with Larry, nor heard any tales of Ray.
Comments: I am so envious of all of you remembering all the teacher names...I remember Bruce Norman...had such a crush on him..not only easy on the eyes but a very good teacher...made class interesting. So enjoyed seeing him and meeting his wife at one of our reunions.. They had no problem keeping up with everyone on the dance floor.
Comments: I just saw where Dale Robertson passed away. He was one of my favorite actors. Thought he was so handsome. Also, saw where Coach Fred McCain of North Texas fame passed away at age 90. I worked for him while he was assistant football coach and then Director of the Coliseum. Really, a dear man. JS, do you still keep in touch with his son, Ray?
Comments: Mr Ramon Ford passed away on 8-22-07. He attended our 40th reunion in Sept of 06 and was so much fun! Less than a year later I saw his obit in the paper. My Sr English teacher was also Mr. Joe NMI Waddell. He told us the story about being in the military and everyone had to have a middle initial. He didn't . . . so they assigned him NMI . . . it stood for No Middle Initail. I adored him and did well in his class. He always brought out the best in people.
Comments: I, too, can still recite Chaucer from Mr. Waddell's senior English class. I can still recite the opening sentence of every chapter in our Spanish 101 class at Boude Storey. You know, the Pan American Highway passes through many cities! Las caraterras pan americana pasas por muchos cuidades. Ole.
Comments: Doug Graham, what a great story about Ramon Ford. I started SOC with Marie Yium for English.She threw me out and insisted I get into one of the high level English classes. Loved Miss Yium. Next was Mrs. Dickson for soph English, then the wonderful Jim Lloyd for junior year. I absolutely adored him. Mr. Waddell was my senior English teacher, and like Phyllis I remember memorizing a lot of poetry in his class. "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways." Maybe I'll go recite that one to David now. He will be impressed.
Comments: I never memorized that and Ramon didn't make me either....hmmmm. I guess I got away with a few things huh?
Comments: When did Ramon die? I loved that man!!!! I had him for English 3 years in a row. He knew me well...and I him....Did you know he and his wife were vaudeville entertainers before he decided to get an education and teach??! Yep!!! I hate it that these wonderful mentors have or are leaving us. Of course, so are some of our classmates....sigh! |
