“To me there are three things everyone should do every day.
Number
one is laugh.
Number two--spend some time in thought.
Number three, you should have your emotions move you to tears.
If you laugh, think, and cry, that's a heck of a day.”
- Coach Jim Valvano of NC State
University

“To love what you do and feel that it matters --
how could anything

work I have
contributed something

To obtain and maintain the services
necessary for this ever-growing website,
as of 10 Sep 2003, we now have
professional web-hosting
to better serve our needs.
Of course,
these improved
services cost money.
These funds are provided
by the generous contributions
of viewers like you,
either through PayPal or
by direct mail to the Web Mistress, Carol Buckley Harty.
Please consider a donation to keep us going.
Thank you
for your support! |
On 26 July 2004,
we upgraded our services
from Silver to Gold in order
to continue bringing
you the
Best of Everything.
There are now well over 530 subscribers
to the
newsletter, and I suspect
that each of you will visit the site
at least once each year.
If each one of you would donate just
$2.00 each year, the web space
expenses would be covered.
What a bargain: Just two measly
dollars a year, and you get
all these memories, images,
and even current gossip.

lost knowledge by study,
lost health by temperance or medicine,
but lost time is gone forever."

The Alma Mater
Words and Music by
Arthur Hundley, 1937
(d. 2 Sept 2008)

Within these sacred walls
we stand,
To praise thine honored name,
We sing to thee,
dear Newport High,
Thy glories we proclaim.
Chorus:
Hail, hail to the Gold and Blue,
We raise thy banners high,
And ever through thine
endless days,
In triumph, may they fly.
O Alma Mater, in our hearts,
We'll often turn to thee,
And echo once again the songs
Of thy dear memory.

Main Page
redesigned 11/25/03 by my # 6 son, Dale Harty of NC
and again by me on 03/22/06
and 10/17/06, when the Site Map was added.
When the whole lower section of the
page
went nutzoidal on 07/05/07 (ARGHH!!!), I was forced to
redesign it again. I've done as much as I dare.
Well, I had, until it became unstable once more on 08/02/07,
so I reworked it again, then once more on 01/19/08, and yet again on
11/14/08 and 03/24/09. |
