From Brenda Sichenzia:
If the Long Islanders get together, put it in the Blog. I live in Pennsylvania, but I am very close to the New York border and it only takes about 2 hours to get to Lake Ronkonkoma. I have made several trips to visit friends from High School. At the last reunion, there was talk of another in 2012. Is that still in the works?

From Joan LaLa Gerson
Hi Ben,

Sorry to hear that your flight to Las Vegas was such a nightmare. It seems that the airlines are more and more out of touch with the needs of customers. The Southwest crew, however, has to be given credit for relaxing people with their sense of humor.

You may remember a conversation we had about cameras at the class reunion. My husband ended up getting the Nikon 3100 and Costco had the best price. So far, we think it's great. Thanks for your suggestions.

Florida weather has been great this season. No tornadoes or floods. We have two pools at the condo and we use them regularly. When I was in the Poconos last year, I learned to play Mah-Jongg and now I am teaching some people here. I started out with three people and now I have nine. Two people have vowed to get their own sets for next season. Did you know that men in China play Mah-Jongg for very high stakes? The other thing I do for fun is my music. In high school I was voted most musical in my class and I still love to get together with anyone who plays anything and jam.

Your article in the PATCH brought back memories of Patchogue. Anyone who lived in the Holtsville, Farmingville or Selden area knew about taking the bus to Patchogue. I used to meet my friend on the bus and for a quarter I could go into town. After an afternoon of shopping, it was possible to buy a slice of pizza for 15 cents!

I read your artical... got me hungry:)I like Burger King too.


" Hey guys" it's getting warmer and those of you that still live on long Island should really get together at some restaurant/ night club, just to chat. Any Ideas? "
Maybe we can meet at a cool place at or near Lake Ronkonkoma ?


Kind regards to all.

Southwest Airlines Direct Flights

From Ben Vitale:

It was wonderful seeing all of you at the Reunion. I haven't written anything recently; what can I say after such an emotional experience.

OK! I'm still doing what I like to do "Blog." (The rare tropical disease Ha! Ha! It really does sound like a disease!)

I just wrote an article about Southwest Airlines Direct Flights, on an online Newspaper, called Patchogue Patch. Better be fast, "Patch" is not a Blog, and articles are eventually removed and replaced

(Left click the link below and read the article)

http://patchogue.patch.com/

When you finish reading the article, go to the upper right hand corner of the "Home Page," and do a "Mouse Over" on the text that says "Change Towns;" then left click "Sachem Patch." Sachem Patch contains all of the local news from the Sachem School District area. Why is it that Sachem Patch feels like home?

"Hey guys" it's getting warmer and those of you that still live on long Island should really get together at some restaurant/ night club, just to chat. Any Ideas? Please use the chat box below.


Fellow Alumni, please write an article about yourself; tell us what you are doing to have fun.
