Jimmy
Knight has found that it is very easy for him to download a picture to his
computer. He can then send selected pictures directly to the nearest
Wallgreen’s and they will print pictures at a discount. Sounds like a good tip
to me. To download a picture, simply place your mouse over the
picture and right click. In the list displayed select either "Save picture
as ..." or "E-mail picture..." and follow the dialogs presented.

A call to the Rally by Dianne (Haddle) Bridges
EVERYTHING OLD IS NEW AGAIN |
|
Everything old is new again--
when we get together and friend meets friend,
As we reminisce about good times and bad,
and talk of the things that were really the "fad",
Like Levis and bobby socks, ballerina
shoes,
alum on your hair and crying the blues.
Remember the time when he took you for a
spin,
and all that he wanted was your heart to win,
Out in his Chevy or old beat up Ford,
usually somewhere he couldn't afford.
Well, those were the days when a coke was
a dime,
a hamburger a quarter, a milkshake twenty-nine.
When Elvis was king and "Earth Angel" was
grand,
Pat Boone wore white shoes writing "Letters in the Sand".
Now those times have changed and, my, we
have too,
Wish we could go back and all be made BRAND NEW,
Like "back to the future"--a younger me and you!
But since we can't we'll do something
much better,
When we have an old-time 50's get-together!
So make your plans now regardless of
weather,
to be with your classmates like "birds of a feather"
As we spread our wings and all flock together!
|
NOW
COME ONE, COME ALL--
WE'LL HAVE A BALL,
AS WE GET TOGETHER----
NOW COME ON YA'LL!!
THERE WILL BE FUN,
TRIVIA, 50'S MUSIC, AND MUCH MORE!!! |
|

A farewell to the Rally
Again We Meet
A cross the wide Oceans of
time
Come
we to this place to remind.
Remembered
faintly all those places;
Oh!
the strain to recognize those faces.
Stopped
here for a moment to share;
Then
back we go to who knows where.
It
seems a shame it must eventually end.
Closed...
For some, never opened again
