Penny: Go ahead and say it. Chauvinist geezer? Now you feel better?

Len: I've got two new eyes also. Also had a retinal tear fixed with a laser in the last few years. Way to go with the weight loss.

Jerry: I remember Bob Giacobazzi's sister walking out on the ice and being lost.

Tom Diliberti

Jerry. Was she was a doctor?

Ok, let's start over. What should we talk about?

Tom Diliberti

You guys have been watching too much Fox news.

John Switchulis

Tom, whats your point!!!

Gerald Menzel

and i know at least 22 other people who would also agree, but what do we do with the other 304,059,700 folks ?

John Switchulis

Right on Dennis, I agree with everything you said except ya gotta have a Layfayette coney dog and then a quick stop at Greek Town for some Baklava (and then to the medicine cabinet for some tums)!!!!

John Switchulis

Add a little hot sauce and it will be smakze!!!!

Dennis Bukantis

Tom,

I had no idea that you were so talented in things culinaire! Not sure Switch, if Hot Sauce would help!

I'm thinkin' Polish Ruben today...come on over!

Lovely weather here in Denver this morning, clear, bright and verrrry dry!

Tom Diliberti

Geeze, Chuck.
In case you didn't notice, I was trying to change the subject. Now we have a holy war going too.
BTW, for the record, I support the Dems and what they are trying to do. And strange as it might seem, I also like Ron Paul, who share many ideas with BO and company.

Tom Diliberti

Switch: I appreciate your comments. I think it would be nice to have a serious discussion about issues. Do you want to pick a topic?

John Switchulis

I'm off to Ohio for a couple days, to be resumed. You do know that Oboma was named Grandparent Advocat of the year!!!

Bill Cook

Gerald Menzel

Len Jacobs

TO ALLWHO ARE INTERESTED IN THE PARTY IN MEXICO PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU WILL BE TRAVELING WITH A SPOUSE SO I CAN GET A COUNT TO BETTER WORK A DEAL FOR ROOMS.THE MORE THE MERRIER.THANKS IN ADVANCE.......LENNY

Dolores Enright Whitman

Bob,
The country can't afford not to do it. In particular, small businesses need the ability to negotiate reasonable premiums for their employees. Large corporations can't compete on the world market because all the other advanced countries have universal coverage of some type (not all of them are govt.). Our health care costs are holding us back economically.
Appreciate your response.

Dolores Enright Whitman

Bob,
Please don't "bow out". People need to share information. I hold nothing against anyone who disagrees with me. I welcome their opinions. However, I try to learn the facts. The insurance industry has invested millions to give its version of the facts. Their lobbyists are flooding Capitol Hill. Sen. Joe Lieberman's wife has ties to Aetna and he did a complete U-turn last Fall. He had publicly supported allowing people to buy into Medicare when he was campaigning in the past. But, as soon as that became a possibility for the health reform bills, he voted against it.

I don't believe in letting our ardent beliefs about policies turn us into venom-spitting bigots. We see enough of that on Fox TV. But these are issues that are crucial to the future of our country. There is financial reform on the horizon and energy policy and of course jobs creation. All of these issues need to be discussed, and with the Internet at the tips of our fingers we can get many facts. I use Politifact.com and Open Secrets.com and I subscribe to Alternet.com. I also go to WhiteHouse.gov to get their facts.

I urge open discussion of all points of view among all of our classmates who wish to participate.

Dolores Enright Whitman

Classmates,
I agree with Bob that this wonderful website should not be used to pull us apart. I will henceforth not talk issues.
Dolores

John Switchulis

THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING!!!

Len Jacobs

SWITCH,ARE YOU IN SUNNY FLORIDA STILL? IF SO WHEN DO YOU RETURN HOME?SAME OLD THING HERE.LOOKING FORWARD TO AUGUST AND MY ANNUAL TREK TO M GO BLUE COUNTRY.SHOULD HAVE SOMETHING SOON ON PARTY IN MEXICO.ROOM RATES AND DATES.LATER.......JAKE

John Switchulis

Jake, I'm in Fl but it ain't sunny and not warm!!!! It is in the 50's with the wind blowing, wearing long pants and sweatshirts. The fishing has been bad, we needs some warm weather to get the fish feeding off the beaches. But it could be worse, I could be sitting on a bucket ice fishing in Mi - I guess I can't complain.

Len Jacobs

NO ONE LISTENS TO COMPLAINTS ANY WAY.HOPEFULLY THE WEATHER WILL BE NORMAL AGAIN SOON.TALKED TO AL THE OTHER DAY.SAID HIS WIFE IS NOT FEELING SO GOOD.HE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE PARTY IN MEXICO.I ALSO GAVE HIM RONNY COBERS PHONE NUMBER.THEY LIVE ABOUT 5 MILES APART.LATER JAKE

Tom Diliberti

Len. I will be glad to send out another notice about the Mexico party when you have more details worked out. I don't know how anyone could miss the announcements unless they haven't opened their emails.

Delores. Thanks for your bold stance on the health care debate. I'm with you of course.

What baffels me is how honest people could have such different interpretations of the same "facts." Perhaps some smart person could explain how this happens.

Gerald Menzel

dear tom:
i will get back to you on this issue

Chuck Dildine

gerry & class: i went to a meeting of the board of ed
"site & development" monday- march 8th. they had
the architect make a rendering of a site at the
east end of the building where they plan on creating
a landscape entrance where the class of '59' will be
recognized in some form- plaque, sign, etc. the hope
is to finish the details of the design process,
then get bids to have it built. the idea is to get
it done by homecoming of 2010 at which time they
will have a dedication. i'll keep you posted on the
progress of this process. chuck d.
