Message: Don't laugh at me, but I am mourning the loss of Nancy Hughes, the matriarch on 'As the World Turns'. I watched this soap opera with both my grandmothers and have been a faithful fan all these years. She was on the program since its debut in 1956. RIP, Nancy, and the wonderful actress, Helen Wagner.

Message: I'm wondering if anyone has access to Reunion.com. Someone in Meadview, AZ has been searching for my hubs who is from Chicago. This is a very curious situation as Meadview is such a tiny place. If anyone has access and knows how to navigate reunion.com - and is willing - please contact me by email. We'd love to find out who it is so we can find them in Meadview! Thanks!
I finally unsubscribed from them. They always had someone who was looking for me but I could never find out who without signing up. It's probably no one, Sharon.

Message: Thank you all for the lovely birthday greetings! I am so grateful for my Cougartown family and YOU, John, for giving us this fine venue. And while I'm at it, Happy Birthday to you, too! I'm sorry I missed Cruise Night but I had a concert date with Konnie Krislock and a bottle of Sailor Jerry rum. Now I find out that the picnic will be Sept. 18 and I will be in Meadview. I'm so sorry to miss it, I LOVE THE PICNIC! But, Mr. B says we must go, and go we must. (It's that or a sanitarium.) Any chance of holding the picnic in Meadview? A mere 7 hour drive? They have a bar, a restaurant, and a motel- what more could you ask? And karaoke on Saturday nights... THAT should clinch the deal!!!
Have a great time Sharon

Message: Just got back from dinner with Dennis and Laurie (Keahey) Johnson ('71 & '73). Laughed, ate and drank too much. Sooooo good for the soul! I love those two. On Sept 16th, by my calculations, they will have been married for 33 years....wow, how time flies. Anyway John, I think Laurie mentioned that her Gramma Lottie (sp?) Keahey was a teacher at Hawthorne Christian. A former mentor of yours? It's a small world....
Hi Sue, I think there was a Lottie(sp) Wilkinson there (my 1st grade teacher). Maybe her maiden name?

Message: Hey John I sure had a great time last weekend seeing everyone. Sorry to all the UCLA folks, but I told some people I would bring the USC Football Schedule Posters. Its all good right? Our favorite football team was there. The Current HHS players, those kids were very cool. They hit all us up to purchase their Booster cards! It was cool to see Coach Plum meet the players. That was priceless. I can hardly wait for the next gathering.
Hi Dennis, Thanks for bringing the USC schedules too. Hey the UCLA people have one game on that schedule, right? Hope to see you at the Ctown Picnic too

Message: Hey, Tom & John Boy; Just another gramerical error in the life of Jorge LOL, probably drives Jim Peppers nuts, the way I write is how I talk, I can't help it. Hey, you nimrods LOL, you knew I was referring to the cars & rods in the parking lot, not cars in the coffee. Give an old guy a break LOL. Both you guys have a great Sunday Jorge

XOXOXO I'm saving your present for an in person event. Let's see, it's scarlet and gold.....
Hey Sue, you class of 74 babes are way too young and beautiful for an old man like me. And as for the present, it sounds like a Cougar Rooter hat Thank you Sue for the birthday wishes and for being one of my best friends. You always make me smile.

Message: Hey John Have a great b'day. Others have mentioned it and I concur; how the H*** did we get this old? With some of the really dumb stuff we did when we were youngsters, we should be..., well, you know...DEAD! And still, some people don't believe in angels!!?? Thanks for all your hard work in keeping up the site. It truly is a terrific place to re-live the "good old days". And George J. I put cream and sugar in my coffee. I've never heard of anyone putting "old car and rods" in coffee. Whoever said the gear heads were not a bunch of tough guys.(HA!, just yankin' your chain!!) Tom
Now HOW did I miss that coffee thing in George's feedback. I AM getting old. From yet another "joined at the hipper" in my life, yeah we should be dead but we keep waking up so let's keep it going. Thanks Tom for all the fun and adventures over the years. We did try just about everything .... except doing that mountain man thing in the Rockies. Maybe there's still time. Thanks for the BD wishes.

Message: Hey, John Boy; Hot Rodders, I just got back from Huntington Beach, at Adams st. & Magnolia, just south of Beach Blvd. where there is a vintage Hot Rod rally every Saturday. There is everything from 1962 vintage 409 Chevy's to 1927 Ford hot rod T's, I know there are some old gear heads on this site who might be interested if they don't already know about the place. The thing is, you have to get there early, Rods start showing up at about 5:00 AM and most are gone by 8:00 AM. There are probably 100 + hot rods every Saturday that show up, there is a huge parking lot next to a donut shop that actually has good coffee that is filled with old cars & rods. Jorge
Thanks George for the info. I think I'll go to the El Segundo car show tomorrow . . . working today.

Message: Hey, John Boy; Who'd have thought we'd live this long, Happy B-day and many more. I can't believe we've made it to the long side of 60 something years and still going strong, well sorta LOL. Seems just like yesterday we were all being chased out of the parking island on Hawthorne Blvd. across from Fosters by Hawthorne P.D.. Sorry I missed your cruise night, sounds like everyone had a good time that attended. The wife said we were going to a play in Laguna that night, so you know how that goes.
Hey George, thanks for the BD wishes. Yeah it is still vividly etched in the grey matter getting run out of just about anywhere, where we didn't belong by the HPD Great times man.
