Family Tree
All,
A few O'Connor family pics for your collection. From Uncle Jerry that he scanned and then I scanned.
Pass on to those I forgot (or was too lazy to check the directory).
Notes on photos are Jerry's.
You know that just about every email going forward will have this reminder. See you in July.
Reunion Reminder: If you haven't already, please go to the reunion website and RSVP / Order tix so we have an accurate headcount. The link is: http://oconnorreunion.myevent.com/

Embrace Life, Buckle up
This is the new "wear your seat belt" ad the UK is doing - started by
some guy (not hired to do it), but because it is important to him,
he came up with this idea, and now it's being hailed across the world as
a 'beautiful' commercial.
And now the video has become so popular with the general public that
people are forwarding it to friends/family on their own so quickly that
it has spread all over the world in a very short time.

Graphic Craziness
This is what happens on your computer if you leave it on overnight.
Just click on the picture above, then click on play, then leave the mouse alone , sit back and enjoy a piece of creative brilliance. I wonder who had 'time' to do this. |

Advice
EVER SINCE I WAS A CHILD, I'VE ALWAYS HAD A FEAR OF SOMEONE UNDER MY
BED AT NIGHT.
SO I WENT TO A PSYCHIATRIST AND TOLD HIM
'I've got problems. Every time I go to bed I think there's somebody under it.
I'm scared. I think I'm going crazy..'
'Just put yourself in my hands for one year,' said the psychiatrist.
'Come talk to me three times a week and we should be able to get
rid of those fears...'
'How much do you charge?'
'Eighty dollars per visit,' replied the doctor.
'I'll sleep on it,' I said.
Six months later the psychiatrist met me on the street.
'Why didn't you come to see me about those fears you were having?' he asked.
'Well, Eighty bucks a visit three times a week for a year is an awful lot of money!
A psychiatrist cured me for $10.
I was so happy to have saved all that money that I went and bought me a new
pickup!'
'Is that so!' With a bit of an attitude he said, 'and how, may I ask,
did a bartender cure you?'
'He told me to cut the legs off the bed! - Ain't nobody under there now!!!
SCREW THOSE PSYCHIATRISTS.. TALK TO YOUR BARTENDER
