Breakfast meeting

There has been some discussion on having a breakfast meeting occasionally with all that would like to attend just to have a few more laughs and to keep in touch. I think it is a great idea. Nothing has been set up just yet. The idea is being extended to all the classmates just to see if it would fly. Therefore; for those of you that have joined the Blogger, your input is requested. We could time it with a time when someone from a distance comes to visit. Then some of us would or could get together. If no one was coming then we could travel to say, Indianapolis. That way Gene BeMiller could visit with us. He has a spinal problem and cannot travel distances easily. It would be great to see ol' Gene-o. Ideas? Suggestions? Thanks, Mike Mac

=================
To all, this is the bio that I received from Roger Huckstead.

Mike
You did not scew up. I have been so sick I really have not been on the computer. I have lived in Denver since 1981 working for Lockheed Martin Space Division. Came down with lymphona about 3 1/2 yeas ago. I never got married. I now live with of friend of 22 years. I'm doing bad enough now that I went on home hospice this week. My friend is an RN so it helps to have a live in nurse. I hardly ever get on the computer anymore. It's too draining. This is not the kind of bio you were expecting but sorry to say that’s my life right now. Good luck with the reunion. Roger

Great Time at Re-onion

I just hope that everyone had as good of a time as I did seeing and hugging everybody. For all that has changed in the last 40 years still seems very little has made much difference. For those of you that were unable to attend, you missed a good party and we missed you. There was so much laughter that I felt like it was my family when I was a little kid. When I closed my eyes it was the same sounds as when I used to go to our family gatherings and reunions. Lots of back slapping and hugs all around. Thanks to all who attended and made the reunion a great time for all of us. Mike Mac

40 year reunion was outstanding!

What a great evening.
A nice dinner with a little wine and friends from my youth.
The time went by so fast.
I enjoyed seeing all who where there from near & far
and look forward to seeing those who were unable to attend at our next get-together.
Please come won't you?
We really are like a family spread across the country.
Thank you reunion committee!

Swaine's World

I spotted this August 1 update at Mikes Swaine's tech news website:

I'm still playing around with the site's content and design, but by September 1, Swaine's World will have relaunched with daily tech news, an Rss feed, and some other interesting content. And I will cut your taxes.

... and the class of '64 40th reunion was yesterday - McIntire has figured out how to post here so an update might come from him on that, and Sally wrote to ask how to log in to the weblog -- just send me an email and I'll try to walk you thru it - when you get the invitation from Blogger, click the link and log in with a user name and password and you can get to the editors dashboard and create a new post.
