Who was born Oct. 12, 1949? Our very own Judy Gallie was born and also: Dave Lloyd, British cyclist; Ilich RamÃrez Sánchez, Venezuelan international terrorist; Paul Went, English footballer; Stan Hansen, American professional wrestler. Doesn't look like any Canadians were, or maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
Judy, did you know that if you saved a dime every day starting at age three, by now you would have saved $2,264.70. Now for your senior moment, now that you truly are one.
You got up this morning, hurried to make your bed; went to make the coffee, turned on TV instead. Thought you had the paper, looked but never found; searched the room, went to the door; it was laying on the ground. Went to pour your coffee, forgot to fill the pot; so turned around as you sat down, wondering what you forgot. Wrote yourself a little note, forgot what you wanted to say, so you turned around, went back to bed. You can start over another day. Hope you remember to get up!
Poems, poems, poems - this one's for our Saskatchewan Roughriders. Don't give up trying, if you've tried and have not won. Never stop for trying; all that's good and great tis done just by patient trying. Though young birds, in flying, fall, still their wings grow stronger, and the next time they can keep up a little longer. Though the sturdy oak has known many a wind that bowed her, she has risen again and grown loftier and prouder. If by easy work you beat, who the more will prize you? Gaining victory from defeat, that's the test that tries you. Good luck, boys, you can do it.
