In the early 60's when fidel Castro was in the news my husband decided to dress (for an early Halloween party) as Fidel and I his senorita. When the sitter arrived and hubby answered the door she shreiked..Oh my gawd...you look just like him. We thought nothing of it but as we drove to the party through the streets of Chicago we were pulled over by a cop and hubby was asked to get out of the car and show ID...the officer then warned him to be very careful the "get up" was too controversial. The evening ended happily...had lots of fun.
An interesting side story is that it was our second or third wedding anniversary...don't know for sure....but we were married on Halloween in 1959.....yep we are celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary this Saturday....just handing out trick or treat stuff like every other year. The bash was in August.

For those who might be late comers to this board, Dory was a poster who we will remember as one who gave of herself so others survivors might smile. She always kept this board moving with her inspirational poems, jokes and riddles. Most will give Dory credit for energizing this board. She was an inspiration to everyone on this board. In that spirit, let us
continue to post in Dory’s memory so she might smile down on us and give us the same inspiration. Therefore, we have named the board, Dory's Board, in her memory. 11/11/01 (Dory was the first to call attention to the significance of 9/11, re: WTC tragedy, i.e. 911 for emergency). Let me be the first to note all the ones in the above date, indicating she was No. 1 on our board.
