This is a first!

I don't think I've ever gotten on and had no new messages posted since I was on the night before. Everyone must be working too hard; sleeping too late; or all vacationing with Tom F. Of course, there's rarely been 2 days in a row that I've been able to get on the computer.

As we get closer to reunion time, I see I am getting more excited. Last year, I was very apprehensive about going, but I enjoyed you all so much I can't wait this year. After 32 years, that was the best 3 days of therapy I've ever had. I just wish we could do it more frequently.

I do have a close friend coming on the 19th. Some of you will remember him, Jer Miller. He and his wife, Bette, and his mom, Gladys, are through Omaha, and we'll have parts of 3 days together. With a little luck, we might even get some golf in. We e-mail a lot buut haven't seen each other since 1972. Jer was with the Crocs through most all of 69 and went home a little early with leg wounds. I'm trying to get them to the reunion, since they live in Seattle.

I don't know how many would remember Gerald "Pappy" Clark, but he'll be at the reunion. Jer and Pappy are 2 of the guys that taught me how to fly gunships, along with J.C. Cloud(whom I greatly miss), Hugh "Golly Golly" Gollogoly, Mark "Pigpen" Garrison, Robert "Dufflebag" Suggs, Chip Banish, Mac McDonald, Russ Vickery and John John. I sure owe a lot to those guys. I doubt I would be here today if not for them. Of course, having the best backseat crew in the business didn't hurt one little bit. Don't tell Touch I said that; he's already got a big enough head.

Okay, okay, I've rambled on long enough, and I'm being kicked off the computer anyway. Go figure, you spend 4 grand on a computer system and never get to use it. Who was that idiot that ever claimed men were in charge of the world? Must not have been married. I think we need to start NOM (National Organization for Men) and demonstrate for equal rights. Fat chance!!

See you all soon.
