Hey Sandy, congratulations on reaching the big 82 - now 6 years beyond the average. Everyday we are blessed to have made into old age - more or less in tact. So what is your next project to bring you fame and fortune?

Hi Linda, Back in our basketball days, your big bad husband was called Ernest - not Jim. Jim Price just does not sound right. Anyway, happy birthday and say hello to Ernest for me.

Hi Harvey, I remember that you played in the band, but I can't remember what you played. Remind me and do you still play it. My granddaughter has been playing my flute for years. I am going to get it back and, as an experiment, see how long it will take me to play the flute again. I have not player in 62 years and I am always looking for a challenge. Anyway, see you around the website.

I just heard on the radio that the leading college basketball scorer of all time played basketball for Needham Broughton High School - Pete Maravich, who averaged 44 points per game in collet at LSU.

I am using Instagram to publish a photographic auto-biography - slowly over time. I add one photo a day. So far, I have posted 50 photos. Each photo has a long caption, which explains the photo.

For 37 years I wrote papers for a living at Bell Labs and FICO, so that is all that I know how to do. I have just written another general interest paper, which is available at;

Congratulations Sandy. That is a very impressive award - amazing energy. I always suspected that the Needham Broughton class of 1957 contained some very special people. Now that my vision is too poor to drive and my wife is about to have foot surgery, I should move to Winston Salem. Meanwhile, we have Instacart. Cheers from Yank in CA.

For those of you interested in politics, I have written a paper entitled, “30 Reasons to Vote Against Trump.” To access it, go to:

Way to go Johanna - you made it to 41 or what? Things are hopping around here - 11 PWD puppies are about to be born. Julie is getting ready for an all nighter. Happy Birthday!

My Covid-19 project was to create a 4-hour movie, which covers the top hits from my photo and homemade movie collections. I also made a10 minute trailer, which is at

Hi Mary Lily,

I can't remember whether you went by Marry or Mary Lilly in HS. But I do remember your sweet smile. How are you doing? I see that you went to Duke. I wanted to go to Duke, but they were late in offering me a basketball scholarship. So, I went to NC State and had a great time. I love your last name, Nuckolls. Is your husband a tough guy? A toast to the great NBHS Class of 1957.

Cheers,
Yank

Hello Bruce, Those were wonderful years at Broughton. We have all accomplished a great deal. It is nice to touch base with you.

When I die, my kids are going to look at my collections of 4,500 photos and 50 homemade movies, throw up their hands, and toss them all into the trash. To circumvent this, I have created a 4 hour narrated video summary of these collections - organized into 3 movie files. I also made a 10 minute trailer for this epic movie.

To see the trailer, go to the URL:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/b72k7wgeborsz6n/UzwU_i3Rpl .
And then open the folder, “Came with the Wind.” And then download the file, “Came with the Wind - Trailer,” by clicking on the box with the three dots to the right of the file name.

Hey Gus, your prayer worked. You may turn me into a religious man. The main fire is about 40 miles north of us. One source of confusion is that we live in the town of Sonoma not the county of Sonoma. However, we are being bedeviled by power outages that the electric company does as a safety precaution. We were out for two days and will be out for another 2 days starting at 8am this morning. I have a small generator that handles the kitchen. So during the power outage, we live in the kitchen. But it is still a huge pain in the ass. So, refocus your prayer towards no more power outages. And, if that works, let me know what church you belong to.
