Anything resembling a warm welcome should be totally disregarded. We're a
bunch of rude nut cases who can't stand each other. We really can't
stand newbies.

Gen64 is criminally insane and Soonergirl26 is really a hired body guard for
the mafia. She shoots first and never asks questions.

Don't show up unarmed. The real reason I won't be there is because I'm
recovering from the gunshot wounds during the last meeting. I've never
fished a day in my life. Soonergirl26 told me to say that or...

Hey! What are you doing here...

BANG! BANG! BANG!

rat-a-tat-a-rat-a-tat-a-rat-a-tat-a-tat!

STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB!

To who it may concern. It doesn't look like Prunepicker will be making the
June or July meetings, either.

Oh No!!

You used paint and cannon in the same sentence.

Hope General's64 reads it before Saturday.

You'll know if he has or not before then.

If not, no telling what he will bring in that van saturday..............

[Generals64]

[USG '60]

Al played for our Prom. Not much Rock and Roll as one might guess. I did a lot of remodeling on his house in the mid 70's. He was a very nice person and had a lovely wife and young daughter at the time ....Gary was already grown and gone.

Al Good was a successful big band leader. The object of the band was to
play dance music and no to provide a concert. I played with him many times.
Gary Good, his son, tried to keep the band alive but to no avail. Al was a
nice guy.

Danced to Al Good at the Civic Center and the Moose Lodge in Yukon.

How about Les Brown and His Band of Renown................

0-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get ready for this......The Al Good Orchestra played in April 2009 at the Oklahoma City Festival of the Arts.....Saw them....Gary was there and so was another real old timer......Miss Don Todd and Al Good. Stopped by his office one time and bought a large group of Band instruments....The Valve Trombone I bought ($10.00) was made in 1940 per serial numbers on the horn along With Al's initials...but, I played that horn all though Highschool.....How's that for a coincidence......

Are you admitting you do blow???

[Generals64]

Are you admitting you do blow???

with the best of them......I even practice...take it how you want but you know what I mean. One thing about being a Jock or a musician is you eventually have to quit playing contact sports but, YOU NEVER have to quit music. Most Jocks can't remember the playbooks from highschool but EVERYONE in Band can still read music....HMMMMMMMMMMM...see ya next time:...Generals64....

[USG '60]

Don't forget to bring a hat and plume tomorrow, '64. Large.

Hey! Generals64 & USG '60, '64 spoke of a rifle club at Grant when he was going to school there. '60 was it there when you were a student? Both of you elaborate on it please.

[USG '60]

I wasn't in the rifle club, but their pictures are in the annuals. I'll bring them AGAIN to the next meeting.

[gen70]

I was wondering if anyone remembers the electricity teacher at Grant in 70? His name was Mr. Williams and he was the first black teacher at Grant.

I had him for a class or two.

He gave hard swats...

He would use free student labor to install wiring on wiring jobs he got payed for.
