Two of my rings are a tad too large so I wrap adhesive tape around them so they don't fall off (how many of you did that in high school?). I was at my sister's last Christmas and the tape worn down to a nub. I asked my grandnephew if Grandma has any adhesive tape? He came back with everything but adhesive tape. He did not know what it was. We went to the drug store to buy some and I had a terrible time describing adhesive tape. Finally the clerk said, "We have some of this old white stuff that nobody buys anymore." The other day I had a fingernail that was about to come off (in the quick as we used to say). I was in a hurry and couldn't find a band aid so put adhesive tape around my finger, with no gauze, and left it for 3 days - guess what? I had forgotten you could not leave it on more than 2 days and now have a ring of blisters on my finger. -Betty Hiser Gulley '49er - south/government Richland - getting warmer - close to 90 - I'm still not ready!!!! ******************************************************* ******************************************************* >>From: Curt Donahue ('53) Re: Quinn's name on eBay Item - Sheet Music for "It's A Good Town" - 1949 Picture of the Sheet Music When Jack worked at KALE in the early '50s, television was just becoming available on a bigger scale. He said it would never last and called it "radio with eye-strain." He really was a great guy. I saw him last sometime in the 90's where he was the director of a musical we attended in Sunnyside. -Curt Donahue ('53) ~ Federal Way ******************************************************* ******************************************************* >>From: Jack Smith ('55WB) Has anyone seen this one yet?? More invasion of your privacy. See if your name comes up along with your address, year of birth and a map to pinpoint you. http://www.zabasearch.com/ -Jack Smith ('55WB) ******************************************************* ******************************************************* >>From: Jim Hamilton (Gold Medal Class of '63) It's good to have friends in high places, and The Gold Medal Class of '63 is now receiving the recognition we have earned and deserved for these many years. I believe this is the result of Jim House's ('63) recent election to "Commissioner of Tides" in Deer Park. Of course Atkins and his associated rabble from the "Four Dotter Class of '62" will claim wider circulation. Semper Bomberus JImbeaux p.s. The long suffering Miss Nancy ('65) and I were in Richland this past weekend, and it sure does smell good at night.

Keep those cards and letters – well, prayers and encouragement – coming. You don't have to take the time to write – I'll just know that I am in your thoughts and prayers as I go into my National Psychiatric/Mental Health Board Certification Exam today at 12:30. This is the culmination of 8 years of schooling – I am hoping they ask me the questions to which I remember the answers from those 8 years! Thank you all again. -Lynn-Marie Hatcher Peashka ('68) ~ Spokane PS – Once I figure out how it's done legally billing-wise, I will be offering to write-off anything beyond what insurance pays for all Bombers and Bomber alumni. Even Bombers can get a little out off balance once in a while – and I'll be there for you when/if the time comes! ******************************************************* ******************************************************* That's it for today.
