Message: Hey Rick. Good to hear from you, and about old friends. Even tho I am not a "tree hugger", you know we need them to balance the load :) I never thought of myself as Eddie Haskell, but now that you mention it...LOL...and I won't call you Beev. Give the rest of your family a "HI" for me, especially the tree hugger. And a quick thanks to John and the CT site for all this.

Message: Hi, Coogs, especially you older ones from my era. Been "lurking" on CT for a few years ever since I discovered it. Have learned some good news (those who are still around) and some sad news (those who are no longer with us). Does anyone recall a pal of mine named Les Basis? Know how to get in touch with him? Last I knew he was in the Bay Area. Haven't heard from him since the late 60's after he returned from Nam. John -- You're doing a great job with the CT website and are providing a wonderful service to us HHS alumni. Thanks (and the check's in the mail).

Message: WOW Jack, you can't believe how glad I was just to see your name, and find out you're alive. You're my second Mystery solved in the past three years. I married the first one, Debbie Anderson, two and half years ago. Another class of 75 HHS. Dad's still alive and kicking, so is Bruce and sister Kathy. Mom passed in 05. She would have loved to have known you were alive. You were the hope I had for my brother, but he turned into a tree hugger. We are so different, he drives a Prius and I drive a Hummer H2. Does that explain things? I'm real glad God gets another chance with his poking stick. LOL
I was just explaining to my wife, you were the Eddie Haskell of our family. Just don't call me Beev.

Message: Hi Rick Salisbury! I remember you well, and your brother Bruce. The report of my death is/was premature. "Almost" seems to be the story of my life: My helicopter "crashed", but I was not injured. My motorcycle "crashed", but I was not injured. My surfboard tried to get me eaten by a shark, but I was not injured. As long as God finds humor in poking me with a stick, I am invincible! ;)

Message: John, I just wanted to thank you for making this web site. We're all lucky as a result. I was looking through your new member list and found Jack Dicus, class of 68. He joined the Army with my brother after HHS. They both went in to become Helicopter pilots in Nam. The last thing I had heard about Jack was that his Helicopter crashed, and that they only found an empty seat. It was good to see him on the new member list, even though his email was canceled. Mystery solved! Thanks again John!

Message: Hey everyone, hope everyone had a great weekend! What an exciting time to be a sports fan! UCLA in the final four, The Dodgers celebrating 50 years in LA, did anyone go to the Coliseum yesterday? And the 5th annual Cougar golf tournament (I'm pretty sneaky, huh?) Our count is up to 23 people, we need 17! As Bud stated before, we will decide on April 15th whether or not to scrub the tournament. We don't want to. If you are still on the fence, please contact Bud, Wade or myself and we will give you more information or work with you. Of course out of the three of us, I'm probably the easiest to get a hold of. Dust off that putter, and come join us.
