Comments: p.s. Recently, I saw a documentary on the Galvez. Underneath the hotel is a major bomb shelter set up for the government. but will probably never be used.
Comments: Charlotte, We haven't heard anything from Transamerica. Our attorney is working on the case. It looks like we will have to go to court to get them to pay. Then the insurance company will probably try to make some kind of settlement. This weekend we are watching the NBA playoffs on ESPN. I plan on visiting Restland tomorrow. My husband is a big Celtics fan. My son and his family went to San Antonio.
Comments: Commemorate not celebrate Memorial Day
Comments: Barry, has your wife cut anything off you lately?
Comments: I was thinking back and wondered, Kathleen, did anything get resolved for your mother in law and her long term care insurance situation? Most of the time I find that insurance companies hope you will just give up when they turn you down for something and don't expect you to get an attorney. What are some of you SOCites doing for this Holiday? I see on Face Book that some went to Galveston...I haven't been there in too long. I used to go all the time when my friends had houses down there, but they sold and now I just don't go. A while back one of my friends took her grand children and stayed at the Galvez...she said they had a blast....but it was not a holiday weekend.
Comments: My statement was directed to anyone who uses this forum to post political comments.
Comments: Bill, that is Screaming..! I do like screams more, when they are less noisy or outside.. 
Comments: Lynell, did you direct any of that towards Barry..? I'm glad you're not saying we are all stupid.. Because that is a political statement if..you are.
Comments: I Think I Will Scream! Thank You, I feel better now.
Comments: I,m not screaming, but I would like to. Joan is retiring after 20+ years of teaching and this week has been a real roller coaster. She was in one of her crying modes earlier this week and she asked me how many times she had "broken down" in the past week. If I was getting ready to say "bye" to teaching 4th graders, I think it would make me very happy, but teachers are not like that. Several of you were teachers and probably went through the same thing when you retired. Teachers get so involved in the lives of their students and I know it's hard to 'quit". Teachers are amazing people. Two other teachers are retiring at Joans school and one of them has cancer. She is so weak from all the "treatments" that she has to have a substitute 3 days a week to help her get through the day. But she is there every day. The other retiree has been teaching 43 years and acts like she is having a break down all the time. With retirement, maybe Joan will be able to do all those home chores that have been on my "to do" list for years. I suggested that maybe she could take some of those classes at Lowes and Home Depot where she could learn to do tile, carpet, hang sheetrock, fix all our lights that no longer work and replace the rotten deck. Can you believe that she actually had another break down when I suggested that? Women!
Comments: Well, drat. I might have said that wrong. Anyone who posts political beliefs that don't concur with one's own beliefs is likely to be thought of as not seeing things properly. Okay. That's it for me for today, I promise.
Comments: Please excuse my third post in a row, but I seem to be on a roll. If someone elects to stop posting, that is their call, not mine.
Comments: There are people in our class who suffer from serious medical problems who probably don't want to read political stuff on here. Automated messages from candidates call me 20 times a day. Do I answer the phone? Thanks to Caller ID, I don't answer 99% of the calls that come in. I know people who have made millions honestly. None are in politics, and none ask for money. They don't try to cram their policies down my throat. I wish politicians would run on merit and stop polluting my phone, my Internet and my mailbox with their brilliance. Doubt that will happen, and most people will continue to vote a straight ticket. So, please, stop it. If you post political stuff on here, regardless of your beliefs, it won't be deleted by me -- but you will bring down the room. And likely half the people who read it will think you're not very smart.
Comments: Knock it off, please. Nobody is going to win any converts.
Comments: Really..Charlotte.. Chastise Barry for what he did several weeks ago..the rules should apply to everyone... Really.. And I was just speaking the truth... the truth sometimes hurts... Love you anyway...May all your holiday dreams come true...
Comments: REALLY???? see what I mean about these posts? just can't keep from insulting people when it is about politics....no matter what side one is on.
Comments: Okay...Girls..That would be Charlotte, who pays for this site, and Lynell that does her 'bidding'. It was very obvious when you were screaming at Kathleen. I didn't see you screaming at Barry several weeks back.. In fact you made 'sideways' comments to me about screaming. Char, you would never approach me 'directly'. Kathleen's post was very small and very short..and I've stopped all of the political remarks except to come back at Barry for his remarks and screaming... I'm not one of your 'precious Republican friends' and I'm not endowed with money and in Jud's investment group.. You all want to do that..fine.. In one way or another you impart to the rest of us that Republicans are Superior..! Really tired of that. I do not agree with most of what Barry says... I did not agree with most of what Sam would say.. Both Kathleen and I get 'conservative propaganda' from those two, like they're going to convert us..? I do appreciate that Sam doesn't get on here and 'rage' anymore..but you are still allowing Barry to do so and not coming back on him like you do on Kathleen.. Really girls..equal treatment and equal opportunity. We all graduated and participated in many things at SOC. We are all not going to be called Republicans or Conservatives...any time soon. Since this is a site with all our class's year and school on it. Would you please refrain from letting the Conservative/Republican or 'whatever they are'...bully others. You'all ran off Linda Sargent Jimenez. Please don't do that any more. Show me and all that there is some 'semblance of Humanity'..on this site.. Let me know if you read this, too...Jud. (this post will probably be deleted..I know.) Have a nice weekend... Whomever you support and vote for, in November...
Comments: On a cheerier note: Peaches sent me an e-mail about the next SOC Luncheon. The info is on the Events page -- Lunch at Napoli's in Garland, hosted by Phillis Burnett, SOC '64. Check it out and mark your calendar! Regardless of your politics, these things are always fun -- and remember, food consumed at SOC events has no calories!
Comments: I hope my point is taken. There is NO FREE SPEECH over here dear SOC friends. See what one little post caused???? This is a private club for SOCites and we don't have to let unwanted forums go on here. So if you are reading this...THIS MEANS YOU........We can have it pleasant or not have it at all. Harrumph!!! Heed the warnings of Czarina Lynell!! OK....off the soap box!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAVE A WONDERFUL AND SAFE MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND AND REMEMBER THE REASON FOR IT!!
Comments: Whew..! Charlotte you're screaming louder than I did when Barry was going on and on.. Made your point, however....
Comments: Please please please please please keep politics off this GB. It causes hard feelings. The purpose of this site is to keep us together, not cause rifts.
Comments: OK, but the same rules should apply to everyone.
Comments: Amen!
Comments: NOW I'M SCREAMING..... WE'VE HAD A VERY GOOD THING GOING UNTIL THIS LAST POST. KEEP IT OVER ON FACE BOOK...PLEASE...I'M BEGGING YOU CLASSMATES... DON'T BRING POLITICS OVER HERE...PLEASE! THIS IS OUR CLASS SOCIAL NETWORKING AND I KNOW, WITH COOPERATION, WE CAN KEEP IT THAT WAY THIS YEAR. THIS IS THE PLACE WE KEEP UP WITH EACH OTHER'S GOINGS ON. WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN OPINIONS ON THE SUBJECT BUT THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO POST THEM. EVERYONE REMEMBERS THE UNBEARABLE CONSEQUENCES.
Comments: I JUST SAW ON CNN WHERE MITT ROMNEY HAD $77+ MILLION DOLLARS IN THE BANK. IF SO, WHY IS HE ASKING FOR CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS FROM ME AND DID HE EARN THAT KIND OF MONEY IN AN HONEST WAY?
Comments: Mary looks like she's saying TA-DAAAAAH! Betcha that was her first word.
Comments: Mary, it looks like that photo was taken on my porch. You are all a blessing to me and I am thankful that I was part of the greatest class to ever graduate from SOC!
Comments: Peaches, I am sorry to hear of your loss. You and your family are in my prayers. Mary, you light up our lives and have for years. Your bubbly personality and over all friendliness makes everyone feel a part of the party. You put a smile on our faces. Thank you for all you have given to us over the years. You are in my prayers and those of our church.
Comments: Boy, if Paul Newman wasn't the best-looking man who ever lived, I'm not sure who was. Remember him in The Prize?? Holy Moley!! Mary Irene's knees do look like little hearts. What a cutie.
Comments: I see little hearts on Mary's knees, but of course! In the Health News: Men thinking of cheating on their spouses better think again. "Fox & Friends First" highlighted a new study that shows men who cheat are more likely to suffer from a heart attack. The study finds it is often older men cheating with younger women in different surroundings that suffer the heart attacks. It would be wise to follow actor Paul Newman's advice, "Don’t go out for a hamburger when you’ve got the steak at home. And if you do, make sure you’re taking your Lipitor." You go Paul!!! Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! |
