HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY, JACK!

If you want a good laugh during the torrent of current and future political speeches, Google mad magazine political speech and click on Non-slanderous Political Smear Speech. I remember it from way back and was hoping I could find it. It's really clever. Writer Bill Garvin sure knew how to make favorable comments that could be considered otherwise by some with limited vocabularies.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANDY!

HAPPY 16th BIRTHDAY, ALEX!

A picture of my first duty station is at the link below. I finished at Columbia University but was back on board with Mom for the graduation dance on the main deck of the old ship.

I did something new today. Googled robert truman murphy and found an entry Mansfield High School Manhigan Yearbook. My name was there and a list of my activities: Class VP etc. The link takes you to some yearbook covers. Click on Class of 1938 to get a list of pages. Go to page 27 to see the four class officers and page 30 to see my picture. I tried the same for Mom, but couldn't find a similar entry.
