  I remember our principal, Mr. Wiggins, made the announcement.  He was very emotional and honestly, we were quite scared.  Could hardly comprehend the moment. Very sad indeed.

Our music the week of Nov. 18, 1963

Just in time for the holidays!

For that special person on your Christmas list.

The scent blends cedarwood and patchouli to recreate the smell of a bar counter, tobacco and leather to evoke "those worn-in leather barstools," sea salt for the "basket of fries and popcorn" and Champak blossom to replicate the smell of Miller High Life. 

And we thought this day would never come! 

Gregg Wilson

If you were forced to listen to Lawrence Welk as a kid, you may be entitled to financial compensation.

Just sayin......

Ken Becker

Gregg, I'm forced to listen to "rap" when the high school kids next door come home and park in their driveway.  Shouldn't I get double the Lawrence Welk compensation?

Bob Nicholson

Let me know if you get that working, Ken. I keep hearing a loud thump, thump, thump from my neighbor's car—it usually starts around midnight.

Christmas memory...The Bon. 

Virginia Wolfe (Scheffer)

Great memories....family Christmas to window-shop at the Bon and Frederick's.

Linda Pompeo (Worden)

Thank you for posting all of the wonderful memories of Christmas from long long ago.

Then and now....

Bill, you are spot on!  Thanks, once again, for your very positive postings!  Everyone, have a great 2025!

Jan. 8, 1935 -- Elvis's birthday, Tupelo, MS

Jan. 6, 1954 -- possibly the start of something big! 

Karen Buck (White)

WOW!!! What a find even if it was truly the Beginning it was still a find.

Virginia Wolfe (Scheffer)

Bill, is that your treasure?  Yes, WOW!

Bill Engelhardt

No....but still have some of these. Does that count? 

Virginia Wolfe (Scheffer)

Ohhh funny, but the inserts can count for a bit of nostalgia. 

Ed Hesner

Hey, Bill,

I still have a bunch of the records those things go in!

Bill Engelhardt

Reputed to be the first 45 rpm, released in March 1949. 

Linda Pompeo (Worden)

We have a jukebox and quite a few collected 45's, but don't remember seeing this one. Looks like it sells for $59.95 today.  

Bill Engelhardt

Tell ya what, Linda, send me your mailing address (privately) and I'll add to your collection my mint condition copy of Come Go With Me (Jan. 1957). It deserves to be on a juke box.
