Harry & Bess



On the Road With Harry and Bess
Motel-hopping with the former first couple in the summer of '53

WE WILL NEVER SEE THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.. ever


Harry Truman was a different kind of President. He probably made as many, or more important decisions regarding our nation's history as any of the other 42 Presidents preceding him. However, a measure of his greatness may rest on what he did after he left the White House.

The only asset he had when he died was the house he lived in, which was in Independence Missouri. His wife had inherited the house from her mother and father and other than their years in the White House, they lived their entire lives there.

When he retired from office in 1952, his income was a U.S. Army pension reported to have been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting that he was paying for his stamps and personally licking them, granted him an 'allowance' and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year.

After President Eisenhower was inaugurated, Harry and Bess drove home to Missouri by themselves. There was no Secret Service following them.

When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, "You don't want me. You want the office of the President, and that doesn't belong to me It belongs to the American people and it's not for sale.."

Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was preparing to award him the Medal of Honor on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept it, writing, "I don't consider that I have done anything which should be the reason for any award, Congressional or otherwise."

As president he paid for all of his own travel expenses and food.

Modern politicians have found a new level of success in cashing in on the Presidency, resulting in untold wealth. Today, many in Congress also have found a way to become quite wealthy while enjoying the fruits of their offices. Political offices are now for sale.
(sic. Alaska)

Good old Harry Truman was correct when he observed, "My choices in life were either to be a piano player in a whore house or a politician.. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference!

I say dig him up and clone him!!



Enjoy life now-it has an expiration date!

For a review of the book go to Washington Post

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN


I was so upset when they tore down the Junior High School building that I decided to rebuild it.
Using a photo of the vacant lot from Google Earth and an photo I took before they demolished the work of art created a movie that looks like the school has been rebuilt.

BEFORE SAUCERS COULD FLY

the above photo is the closest I could come to representing what the dessert looked like with out taking a photo myself.

Does anyone know the origins of COFFEE BREAD DESERT? Before there was flying saucers my grandparents had lots of uses for sauce plates. First of all was uncder the coffee cup but my grandparents didn't use them this way. They poured their coffee into the saucer and sipped the coffee from there. The best use that I liked was what my family called coffee bread and it was simply a slice of bread on the saucer and brown sugar sprinkled on top and then coffee poured on top. I still do this at restaurants to the horror of my wife and waitress. It's less calories then regular deserts. I sprinkle on Splenda instead of sugar of course. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS CLASSIC DESSERT?

CHANGES FOR SUBMITING COMMENTS



FRIENDS I'M SORRY THAT I HAD TO CHANGE THINGS.
I tried to make it as easy as possible for everyone to make comments, but as things go there is always some idiot with nothing else to do but screw with things. To that individual I say "get a life "

This is a simple High School blog that only wants to keep classmates and friends in contact.

So here is the changes....and they are mild.

Everything is the same except for 1 item added on the comments page and that is the addition of the WORD VERY item. A block below the comments box where you have to type in letters showing. This is so a computer by it's self can not do a comment.

After you do this you continue on as before...selecting Anonymous and that is it.

NOTE. Your comment will not show up right away as before...because I have to receive it and then approve it. This is called moderating , so no jerk like the lifeless one that messed around can not mess anymore.

There is no danger or security issue on your end at all, it's just that I don't want someone making comments that may be misleading or just plain stupid.

Please don't stop interacting ...I was so happy that people were starting to share.

ANY MEMORIES OF THIS PLACE?



How many of your recognize this place? It's Frankie's Lighthouse. Have any memories you would like to comment about?

MORE INSTRUCTIONS



Here's some more helpful instructions on blogging....I hope you can get something out of this.
Click on the photo, as you normally would do, to enlarge it and read the instructions in the green boxes.
Is this a help for you?
leave your comment if it's helped you please.

IT'S EASY TO MAKE COMMENTS




It's as easy as 1,2,3,4 to make comments on any posting and interact with your classmates and friends.
NO NEED TO JOIN ANYTHING!
Just go to the latest posting or any post that you wish to comment on and follow the directions I have laid out on the photos above. You can click on these photos to enlarge them to see better. (like any on this blog)
The example above is of the '57 LUNCH BUNCH latest get together. You'll se there is already 9 comments on this page.
You may want to comment on another post that I made, like maybe the photos of Jr. High building or the Columbian building. My hope is people will jog someones memory and we will all get to share and enjoy these memories.

HOPING THAT WE GET SOME INTERACTION GOING ON THIS BLOG.
Sarj

DID YOU KNOW THIS?

This is not about the school of Tiffin but maybe about us seniors who need all the help we can get. From time to time I may put something on here that I think might be helpful. If you have things like this let me know.

Someone sent this to me and I thought it might be a good idea to pass on. If I knew this before, I must have forgotten it. Anyway maybe it can help you? Let me know what you think.
