Go '71ers! - 2008/05/10 19:36 Mel Poole here, another '71er chiming in! I hate to say this, but I think the reason that there aren't more of us on here is because WE'RE OLD! 50-PLUS! ANCIENT! Old people don't LIKE technology! Right?! I hope I'm wrong. This technology is a miracle, and we should appreciate it as such. Cheers and best wishes to all.

Re:Go '71ers! - 2008/05/10 21:18 Mel-- Cheers & best wishes back to you, my friend!

But say it ain't so! Old and ancient? Come on, now. I think I know you well enough to detect a large measure of humor in them there words! Right?? I'm hoping so.

Don't believe him, folks. He's kidding. We're still trying to figure out what we want to do when we grow up!

Re:Go '71ers! - 2008/05/12 22:26 Don't mind me....I am just moving Mel's response back to the original thread: (Hi Ricky! Hi Mel!)

Hey, Rick -- Yep, you busted me. I'm not complaining at all. I actually enjoy having a little seasoning. Besides, "old" is a moving target! There's always somebody else around who's "old". We, as you said eloquently, are mere babes. But that being said, it's odd to think that Coach Harris first whacked me with that dang paddle 40 (!) years ago this year, and I remember it like it was yesterday. It's funnier to me now than it was then. Ouch! Cheers. ~~ Dragon #9 Susie

It's never too late to have a happy childhood, but the second one is up to you and no one else.

Re:Go '71ers! - 2008/12/31 09:59 Hey, Denise! Merry Christmas to you too, and I really enjoyed seeing you this year. I hope our little informal get-together takes hold and we can make it an annual thing. A few more people have surfaced since then, so that's a good sign. As you know, we were both in Gail Jolly's senior English class. Have you seen her lately? I know she's come to a couple of events. I'd like to talk with her, but I guess I don't want to face up to the certainty that she won't remember me! By the way, I don't get on the forum that often. Feel free to send me an Email to my personal Email at mpoole@sprynet.com. Cheers, and Happy Holidays!

Re:Go '71ers! - 2008/12/31 10:01 Hi, Rick! Thanks for the holiday wishes, and the same to you and all the Dragons out there! I really enjoyed seeing you and the other '71ers last fall. Let's do it again next year. Cheers, buddy!
