Re: GEN James MATTIS ('68)

GEN James Mattis was on the news this morning (Sunday), meeting
with President-elect Trump yesterday in New Jersey. He is
apparently on the short list for appointment as Secretary of
Defense. As many of you know, he and his brother Tom ('66) are
both Bombers. Their mother still lives in Richland, and Tom is
a neighbor in my townhouse complex. I've met and chatted with
GEN Mattis several times during his frequent visits. Very
impressive fellow - well-spoken and outgoing, and obviously 
an intelligent fellow. I hope he gets the appointment! I'm
confident he would be a fine leader of our military.

Re: ahhhhhhhhhhhh

a little rain here today so every time I got ready to do
something it would start again... rain in the desert is
weird... may rain in the front yard and not in the back...
finally got my errands done... gave me time to listen to Gunnar
and Mathew Nelson's new one hour show on '50s on 5... I'd
caught it once before and enjoyed the music but hadn't paid
much attention to the banter... today was a ton of stories
about Ricky with Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran... great stuff
and then more about a rival weekly football game between Elvis,
the Memphis Mafia, Ricky and his high school pals... lotsa
injuries by Ricky's team till he told his Dad and the L.A. Rams
showed up to play with Rick... last game... all because
Priscilla told the Big E he should wear his hair like
Ricky's... (korse we all know a Bomber-babe ('63) who wore
hers like Ricky in Jr. hi)... finally they explained why Rick
went back to Ricky the last year of his life... he was sitting
with Carl Perkins after most of the other old rockers had
passed and Carl said: "Well Ricky, looks like we're the last of
the old time rock-a-billies." Ricky said "if Ricky is good
enough for Carl Perkins, it's good enough for me... "... yeah I
know bla bla bla... well down to beez wax... HAPPY BIRTHDAY,
John CRIGLER ('64) on your special day, November 21, 2016!!!!!
