Hi everyone - I received an email from Kelly, asking me to please copy and post this message on Norm's B&T, Soda Shoppe and the Games Board.
Dear S&F members
It is over four months since I posted on seniors and friends, because of health issues. When I am able to return I cannot say, but in time I will post again if on a much reduced basis than I used to.
I now live in the United Kingdom in a community helping with health matters. Replying to members by emails is not possible at the moment for me because of these health matters and my inability to use voice recognition.
I am unable to access S&F as I have lost my username and password. If anyone has asked about me, I thank you.
Regards
Kevin
The word games and quizzes will be here, ready and waiting, for when Kelly gets back... :thumbup:

Ludwig van Beethoven
my word was lud"vig.".not Ludwig
I knew you would jump on that. The names are identical and "W" is pronounced like a "V" in German, hence Ludwig. However, if you wanted to argue that Beethoven was of Belgian descent and Ludvig is the Scandinavian equivalent of Ludwig , thereby rendering my submission as ineligible, then I suggest that a judicial inquiry be convened in order to resolve this most contentious matter.

Johan Ludvig Heiberg
Norwegian poet/playwright, critic, and literary historian, he was rather well known in his day.
Here is an English translation of two of his poems.
Barcarole
Calm the night, unstirring,
And the air so clear
Pearls of dew uncurling,
Moonlight rays unfurling
’Cross the glassy mere.
Dulcet waves appeasing
Heart that yearns for rest,
Sighs and sorrows ceasing,
Breath of wind releasing
Mind so long oppressed.
Spring Poem
Now bowers offer shadow
and days need less rest,
in spring’s flowering meadow
each bird builds its nest.
Love’s god’s on the wing, though
he’s blind as can be;
flits there at the window,
is let in for free.
Using Radioman's definition, I hereby submit...

Crystal Gail Mangum
Best known for her false allegations of rape against members of Duke University's Lacrosse team. She has a long history of false accusations and stealing. After the Duke case, she went on to attempted murder and was convicted of murder in another case. Info from Wikipedia (yeah, I know) which has references. I hadn't followed that story very closely so her history came as a surprise.
I thought I'd been told that "sound alike" isn't enough. The spelling has to be the same. Must be I'm wrong. Would someone please confirm for me.
JaneS..I agree with you...I notice that Hugh Hefner's third wife does spell her first name "Crystal" and there could have been a typo.

Ann Bancroft Author and teacher
I thought we didn't use the descriptions in parentheses. I never do!
JaneS..I never considered parenthesis however used in the description as a no no..Perhaps we should take a vote on it..
I get what Jane S is saying...as this game is becoming more confusing as we go along...we often have the persons " stage name " added with their " original birth name.." which often is totally different...Maybe best to stay with the famous name we know them by..otherwise think we will get confused and find ourselves all over the place...anyway my vote is in... ;D :thumbup:
I actually like having the descriptions there because sometimes I'm not familiar with the name posted. However, I always thought of it as a learning experience...not part of the name. My vote is for "name only" but please continue to add descriptive information. I like seeing that!
Agree, the description can be a learning cove, along with the birth and death dates...

Sir Geoffrey Howe...

Okay, this is one that always confuses me. Sir is a title. Do we ignore that and build on the name only or is that considered part of the name? Like Mr. or Mrs. or in the case of "Field Marshal Montgomery" when someone used that title to build on. Just seeking confirmation.
I have always used the name only, I only add title if the person concerned has been given a title..Other members may do different...I may also add if someone has been given an honour or has been knighted after his or her name but, it is purely for show only...
I have a confession to make: when I played John Field on the title 'field marshal' I did so as a mischevous prank knowing full well it wasn't part of a name; I just wanted to get some kind of reaction. So in my opinion it should not be part of a name.
:whip: Don you might get some reaction now... ;D
Don, I'm the one who entered Field Marshal Montgomery and I thought of it as a title....like General or lieutnant or Admiral. I've seen a lot of war movies with British and American and German soldiers in them. But when someone built on "field" and someone else added another "field" I wondered if I'd been wrong all along by avoiding titles. Not trying to make trouble, just trying to abide by the rules...whatever they are.

Perry Greeley Holden was the first professor of agronomy in the US, teaching at the University of Illinois at Urbanaâ€"Champaign. Later he became the first vice-chairman at Iowa State University. He also spent several years managing Funk Seed Company, ran for governor of Iowa (defeated) and was a director of International Harvester's Agricultural Extension department.
Both the University of Iowa and Iowa State University are land-grant universities. I've never been out that far, but I have been to Michigan State and Penn State campuses which are also land-grant universities. I knew a little about land-grant universities, but never knew the scope of the original act that created them not that there were so many, including MIT.
Well, that got long. Sorry, I just love exploring and learning things and often like to share the things I discovered. I hope you don't mind that I get carried away sometimes. I have a minor interest in farming and gardening, and worked for several years at Rodale Institute which is a non-profit agricultural experimental/research organization begun by J. I. Rodale.
Speaking of Rodale, I just discovered that Hearst Publications has bought out Rodale Publications. It was just announced several weeks ago. The former buildings, many of which were old buildings that were lovingly restored and overseen by Ardie Rodale will be turned into a wellness and senior center compound of some kind. I knew Ardie, Bob and Anthony Rodale.

Wikipedia... 1725 - 1807...English Anglican clergyman who served as a sailor in the Royal Navy for a period, and later as the captain of slave ships. He became ordained as an evangelical Anglican cleric, served Olney, Buckinghamshire for two decades, and also wrote hymns, known for "Amazing Grace" and "Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken."

Samuel Barclay Beckett, Irish playwright, novelist, theater director, poet.
Amy, Morse developed the code that telegraphers used to send message, and to this day Amateur Radio Operators all over the world use it. If communications are down because a disaster, look for an amateur radio operator. Part of the Amateur Radio mandate is to help provide communications in disasters. When conditions are so bad that voice can't get through, Morse code often does. It also eliminates misunderstandings due to bad conditions, accents and poor enunciation. The government in its wisdom dropped the knowledge of Morse code for one low level license, but as far as I know it is still required knowledge to pass the licensing tests for the higher levels. The top level, if I remember correctly, is to send and receive 25 words a minute. That is fast.

Astro, your standardbred and sulky reminds me of when I used to see Max Hempt's standardbreds out in the field exercising or on the practice track. After he died, his family kept the business going for a while but eventually closed it down. The polo field is still there though, or was a few years ago. Used to go watch the polo matches too. Now the property is going to be sold off for the new fad of a planned apartment community with shops and such included. I assume the buffalo herd is gone or will be soon, too. That strip of the Carlisle Pike has turned into a bunch of car dealerships with Lexus and Jaguar leading the pack at planting cars instead of crops. Sorry, Soap box. This is what happens when I am without a computer for a few days.

Astro - I learned my nursery rhymes in the States. I still have some of the (disintegrating) pages of a book I had. Seems many of the old rhymes and songs we learned have local/regional variations, but of course only MY version is the correct one. ::) Didn't know the meaning(s) of it. Thanks for link.
Tom Holland: Spider-Man
Rutumi: Agreed, that there are regional versions of Mary, Mary. However, I too have lived in four far separated areas of the U.S,. All of which considered the Mary, Mary version to be the "norm". Thanks for your input.

A Priceless Gift
Helen Steiner Rice
Friendship is a priceless gift
that cannot be bought or sold,
But its value is far greater
than a mountain made of gold.
For gold is cold and lifeless,
it can neither see nor hear
And in the time of trouble
it is powerless to cheer.
It has no ears to listen
nor heart to understand,
It cannot bring you comfort
or reach out a helping hand.
So when you ask God for a gift
Be thankful if He sends
Not diamonds, pearls, or riches
But the love of real true friends.

One of my favorites, Bubble. I especially like his treatment of cloudy, stormy skies. When we were in London, I just stood and stared at his art in the Victoria and Albert museum.

To this day I refuse to acknowledge that I actually liked the show.

Stephen King
Stephen Foster was a composer and song writer. His most well-known compositions included Beautiful Dreamer, Camptown Races, and Oh, Susanna. I remember singing plenty of his songs when I was a youngster.
I had no idea that he was born in Lawrenceville, Pa which is along US 15 at the border of PA and NY, just a short ride from where George had grown up. Foster also studied at private academies in Athens and Towanda. George taught high school in Athens. I don't remember going through Athens, but I have been through Towanda. This all has set me off on reminiscing about George and our frequent back-road travels up along the northern tier area of PA and across the river into NY.
Oh, and the Camptown Races was a real place in nearby Canonsburg, PA. Just saw that. Didn't know that either.
