Wow! Not one post yesterday! How come, everybody working? What a drag.
Have a safe trip EB.
Son did okay in the short film fest he and is associate entered. Nominiated for three categories: Best Film Concept, Best Director, and Best Actor.
They took Best Director.
Thanks to those who inquired.
What, am I noone? I posted 4 times yesterday. Z posted 3x, as did CFG, not to mention EMG, KR and 7 and K.
Gee, MKap.
I'm happy for your son. That's a great beginning to a lifelong career. Congrats.
I was wondering what happened to you son's short film. Congrats!Wow! Not one post yesterday! How come, everybody working? What a drag.

Ahh, the life of being the proverbial Chopped Liver.
Congrats Mkap.. I did get a chance to view that short and it was very moving
Met up with a friend last night in Eastpointe. Shot some 9 ball at Snookers [[The old Kelly's Kue). Afterwards we cruised the old neighborhood along Kelly. Regina and Luthern East are now Chandler Park Middle School and Elementary school respectively. The school grounds and buildings look as nice as ever. Sadly, the former NDHS building and grounds are neglected.... bushes and weeds growing wild, graffiti by the back door enterance to the cafeteria. Fr. Bryson would not have been happy.

That's sad but also sadly predictable. Speaking of Fr. Byson check the impressive lists of bands that graced the stage at the ND Sock Hops in 1970.

7K: Thanks again for the video. There's nothing more than those bells to bring back great memories of SJ.
For your next assignment, if you don't mind, could you capture the bells peeling?
Anyway, I was curious as to what bell was ringing first the top or middle one. In the video it is obvious that the bottom one is ringing last because the whole bell moves thus striking the clapper. It is not obvious what bell is rang first....which leads to my next question/observation.........
It seems originally that all three St. Jude bells were sounded by the bells moving and thus striking the clapper as compared to the clapper moving and striking the bell. When did that change? If I recall correctly, when the bells would peel around the time of a high mass, or wedding all three bells actually moved at a different time. In fact, the bells for peeling had to be activated individually by a key switch inside the sacristy....so the timing was random. When and why did the sounding mechanism of the bells change? Were there mechanical or repair problems for the top two bells? Curious minds want to know.

Me thinks ol' M's just yankin' our chains, eh?
Any of you folks planning on holding or folding at one of the card parties SJ's got planned for next week?
"Chandler Park Middle and Elementary schools?" I couldn't find them on Google, but then again I didn't try too many searches. So are they Harper Woods public schools, or new private schools? I'm surprised they named them after Chandler Park. That area is not anywhere NEAR Chandler Park!Met up with a friend last night in Eastpointe. Shot some 9 ball at Snookers [[The old Kelly's Kue).

And thanks to 7andKellly for the St. Jude Bells video. With just one bell, it didn't seem all that spectacular, but it was interesting to see nonetheless considering that I didn't live close enough to hear them ringing and was never near there when it did. For all I knew that tower might have been "just for decoration" and long abandoned! My own church at the time [[St. Brendan) didn't have bells.
and don't forget the Rolling Stones and the Supremes in earlier years..... Fr. Bryson, if he chose so, could have been one of the top rock-act/record promoters in the country.
I assume they're still golfing at Chandler Park. It would be a real shame if they let that go."Chandler Park Middle and Elementary schools?"

You're quite welcome.
Just starting out on youtube...so far it handles video much better than FB, IMO.
I'm sure someone out there is sitting on a goldmine of 8MMs of the eastside and St. Jude's just waiting to be digitized and posted for our amazement.
J, we need your dirty socks out for this evening's playoff game so I'm glad you got them out already ... no, wait ... I guess those are mine I smell.
Aaaanyhoooo ... GO WINGS!!!
LMAO!! Plus we need Justin to be the stopper again tonight.
The Wing is mightier than the Pen.
peel or peal the bells seems appealing or is that appeeling. Since CFG is going to peel and prime why not peal and chime? Anyway, Is there an answer to the bell inquiry?
Wings on the board with the 1st goal
Get your free Arby's tomorrow
Tigs win let's see if the Wings can make it a great night!
Somebody better buy Clete Thomas a Root Beer after that game
Root beer ... sandwiches ... great ideas. I've been snacking like a pig this evening already, and the only exercise I've done is flicking previous channel on the remote.
With Rodney closing and the cup finals, heart rate's up though, I'm sure, if that helps.
Round 4, Game 1 is over.
Red Wings win 3-1 !!!
