69'ers Cheering RHS....

Eric Courtney, Ken Porcase, Tom Riddle and Bill Shorts cheered RHS during the game against Tallmadge on Friday, August 24. Unfortunately they didn't quite yell loud enough as Tallmadge squeaked by the Ravens 29 to 28, with RHS losing in the last 30 seconds. (Please feel free for all classmates to post any and all photos of yourselves and/or family. We are ALWAYS eager to keep up-to-date on y'all!)

THE ADVANTAGES OF LIVING AFTER 50

I received this from Mike Marquis who reminded me of our aging. With our upcoming 60th birthday party July 30, 2011, I am reminding y'all too. The perks of reaching 50, being 60 or over, and heading toward 70....... ....Kidnappers are not interested in us. ....In a hostage situation we are likely to be released first. ....No one expects us to run anywhere. ....People call at 9:00 PM and ask 'Did I wake you?" ....People no longer view us as hypochondriacs. ....There is nothing left to learn the hard way. ....Things we buy now won't wear out. ....We can eat dinner at 4:00 PM. ....We can live without sex, but can't live without our glasses. ....We get into heated arguments about pension plans. ....We no longer think of speed limits as a challenge. ....We quit trying to hold in our stomachs no matter who walks into the room. ....We sing along with elevator music. ....Our eyes won't get much worse than they already are. ....Our investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off. ....Our joints are more accurate meteorologists than the National Weather Service. ....Our secrets are safe with our friends because they can't remember them either. ....Our supply of brain cells is finally down to a manageable size. ....We can't remember where you saw this list. ....We notice all these are in BIG print for our convenience. ....And most importantly, never, ever, under any circumstances take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night! Mark Marini and Diana Taliaferro Huntley will be celebrating their actual 60th birthday on our Class party night. If we have any other readers that will be attending and whose actual 60th birthday is on July 30, 2011, please contact me at palsummers@sbcglobal.net
