The Blog is Going Hard Copy

Check the Morning Call on Monday, April 17th, 2006. They are doing an article on the Blog. Last evening a reporter called me and we discussed the use of the blog to communicate our intentions of a class reunion. I believe the reporter talked to Matt and I know she talked with Dave.
I don't know if we are the only blog she is writing about or if we are part of a article on the new lines of communicating.
Read the article. When it goes online, I will post the web address for everyone who does not get the Morning Call in print to see.

The article will focus, I believe, on our use of technology/internet to bring our class together and help organize our reunion. Super-blogger Randy should also be contacted for some quotes, along with Judy if she gives the ok (Judy...left a message and email for you yesterday)

The blog address won't be in the article, but our website and and class email address, along with our reunion info, will be there. We might want to list someone's phone number, too, as a contact. So it'll make for good promotion as we still have a lot of people to reach.

Matt, can you remove the old links about past reunion discussions and create 4 new, specific links for the reunion weekend.

1 Friday night hangout and poker. (checking into Catty Club-good option)
2 Saturday morning golf. (Randy)
3 Saturday lunch picnic.
4 Saturday eve reunion.

Tx.

Mcgon said...

Great work Steve/Pres. Who did you talk to at the Call I work there and know quite a few people there. Did they take pictures??

Mcgon said...

By the way the website for the Morning Call is www.mcall.com
I will see what additional info and pictures etc.I can get and post here. Steve I take it the article will probably be in the business section?

dave, i'm not sure about poker at the club...they just got narked on about the poker machines a couple months ago, and were raided, so let me talk to brad first, or Lew may be able to find out also.

mathbach said...

raided? Catty is turning into Hazard County.

Steve Freeman said...

Rock,
It was Jessica Berthold. She has a weekly column on Monday-Wednesday. I don't know what section it is in.

Pauko - She contacted me today 4/6/06. She asked if I felt that once our reunion was over if people would stop using it? I said I sure hope not. I think it is a terrific way to stay in touch with each other until the next best technology comes out (hopefully not for a while because we are just getting use to the blog)

andrea said...

judy....count me in on your stitch and bitch....ha!

randy....i'll bring my clubs and i thought earlier kim and mare were interested in golfing also....

pauko27 said...

The reporter would like some kind of photo. Ideas? Maybe someone sitting at their computer surfing the blog? Seriously, if anyone wants to take a high res pic of themselves at their computer, send it to me ASAP and I'll get it to the reporter.

LongE said...

Andrea? Got any naked high res pictures of yourself at your computer? Kim? Jude? Mare?

Mcgon said...

I think you should give the reporter the picture of the polish immigrant and the farm hand.

Mare said...

Sorry, had to remove the last posting....typos..

Here's what I wanted to write:

I'm in on the golf deal. It'll give me a good reason to play a few times before then.

Jude and Andrea.....definite on the stitch and bitch....can't wait.

Longe.....sorry no hi res

Matt, Dave you guys should represent.....

How about our youngest blogger? Any news on Vicki? Did I miss something?

mathbach said...

Mare - lo-rez would be fine for the blog.

no word on Vicki Jr lately.

Unknown said...

Hey- It's Friday at 5pm! Everyone get a drinkie!

Unknown said...

Lew- I hope your wife doesn't see that post.............

Vicky said...

Hi Everyone! I'm still here. Without giving out TMI, they're going to induce me on Monday. I'll be sure to post all the gory details if I can't get the webcam up and running! ;-)

I've been reading about all the events over reunion weekend and I'm gutted I'll miss it. Steve, make sure you post the link to the Morning Call article. I don't want to miss that too!

LongE said...

Vicki.....you are "gutted you are going to miss it"? Come on....speak English. Well....you know what I mean.....

Vicky said...

I am speaking English! I can't think of an American equivalent for "gutted"... miffed? pissed off?

Ees that alraight fer thee, lad?

mj jones said...

randyg said...

Push it out.....shove it out.....way out....Vic. Where are the rest of the cheerleaders when you need them?????? Oh that's right they're too busy with keeping up with the laundry.

Mare said...

Vicki - I wish you the quickest and easiest delivery ever.

kristen said...

randy, why didnt you ever try out? i think you took the best cheer for the situation, however, i know if i was almost 3 weeks past due, i would be going absolutely B-A-N-A-N-A-S, goooo bananas, go go bananas!! vicki, have you not threatened your doctor enough or what? anyway, good luck!

randyg said...

Alright Kristen!!!!! See you still got it. I couldn't do a split or shake a _ _ _ . That's why I didn't try out.
