Question of the Month ¿? MUSIC AND THE ARTS What are you most looking forward to now that the weather is finally breaking? At our February meeting we were presented with an array of antique hats that were demonstrated by Kathy Shaloo, from Brielle. Kathy brought many hats which she has collected over the years. She has had a love for hats since she was a young girl. At one end of the table she had her mother’s hats which she called the Rose collection and the other end contained her mother-in-laws hats which she named the Ivy collection. Kathy donned some of her favorites and she looked beautiful in each one. It was a fun way to spend a cold winter’s afternoon. Submitted by Pat McClendon Tom and Mary Lou Gravatt - We are looking forward to planting lots of flowers in our yard! Lots of bright colors and varieties are great; the more the merrier!! Joan Monte sporting a 75 year old feathered hat which had belonged to member, Ann Rokosny’s mother. Nanette L’Hernault - I’m looking forward to Spring when everything comes alive; the greenery of the trees and the bright colors of the flowers! Kathy Shaloo wearing a blue straw hat.

It is used to determine where the higher cards are in the suit that is led, and thus what you need to play to win the trick. Let’s say that your partner is on lead against 3NT. Partner leads the 5. It is evident that your partner is doing the usual lead against NT - 4th from their longest and strongest suit. So subtract 5 from 11 leaving 6 cards higher than the 5. Let’s say the dummy is showing the A94. So subtract another 3 leaving 2. Let’s say that you hold the K102. You hold 2 higher than the 5 so you know that declarer does not hold any. You may choose to play the K or the 10. Either will win. Let’s say that you are the declarer in 3NT and the opening lead is the 6. Subtract 6 from 11 leaving 5 cards higher than the 6 out.

Alice and Carolyn alicetarlach@comcast.net, carolynrubino732@yahoo.com • LET’S MEET: Three (3) Generations - Jill Holand By Joyce Leach Jill Holland is one of two children. Her younger brother, Jack, lives in Maine. Did anyone notice they are Jack and Jill? This is an example of her mother’s sense of humor. Born in Summit, Jill lived in South Plainfield as a child and went through its school system up to 10th grade. Her favorite teacher was Mr. DeCarlo, a science teacher who she remembers smoked a cigarette in class after lunch, then he would put it under a glass to teach the lesson: lack of oxygen extinguishes fire. He did this every day! She also remembers high school in Union going out to lunch for a burger and fries for 75 cents. “I disliked gym, so I skipped it a lot. The gym uniform was a one-piece outift that snapped up the front, not cute. I went to the same high school as my mom and had some of the same teachers: Miss Hart for bookkeeping and Miss Baker for steno, who both seemed to be 110 years old when I had them. My favorite subject was English, a language that is just about obsolete today.” “South Plainfield was a small town, with a closeknit community and I had many friends. We often took the bus to Plainfield to shop or go to the movies, as our little town didn’t have more than a small grocery and pharmacy. I remember the movies cost 35 cents, and 10 cents for popcorn.” “Many weekends were spent at my grandmother’s home in Union. She and my uncle owned the Olympic Florist. There were 13 dirt-floored green houses which, I’m sure, gave me my love of gardening. Oma was like an Auntie Mame to me. She took me into New York City, to Radio City Music Hall and we also saw many Broadway shows. What I remember fondly were all the times we ate at the Horn and Hardart Automat. The place intrigued me, hundreds of glass doors with their enclosed enticements, a dime bought a piece of pie, a quarter for a sandwich (some times two pieces of pie instead of a sandwich). Oma was progressive for her day, traveling around the world in her 60’s after retiring from Victory Engineering. I have a photo of her riding a camel in Egypt! In addition to all the European countries, she also visited Cuba a few times.” “I was always too busy for hobbies as a teenager, but I enjoyed playing hooky, Friday night dances, collecting 45 rpm records, and shopping. At 15 I got a job as a waitress in a little diner after school and on Saturdays. I earned enough to buy the things I wanted. Our family had one of the first black and white TV’s in a cabinet with a phonograph, so our living room was a popular place. A special treasure for me was my little transistor radio that I could take everywhere. In 1964 my mother, brother, and I moved in with my grandmother who bought a house two blocks from the ocean in Point Pleasant Beach. If I remember correctly, it cost $16,000!” “At 18 I married my high school sweetheart. We have four children, two boys and two girls. They all live nearby in Point Pleasant and Point Pleasant Beach. (Kristine lives in Greenbriar now!) I have 6 grandchildren ages 4-29 (4 boys and 2 girls) I enjoy traveling and have been to 27 Caribbean islands, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland, Central and South America, Mexico, and Puerto Rico. I just returned from Albuquerque’s Balloon Fiesta. Life is Good.” At the time of the interview, grandchildren Harry and Phoebe were visiting and are in the photo. Jill is one VERY busy person. Next in this series we will meet with Kristine Tooker again. APRIL 2015 THE GREENBRIAR TIMES 9 Computer Club News By Elma Perry “Computers are not User Friendly But we are” March has arrived and it is time to remember St. Patrick’s Day, the “wearing of the green” & other traditions. St. Patrick’s Day is both a cultural and religious celebration occuring annually on 17 March, the death date of the patron saint of Ireland (c. AD 385 - 461). That day commemorates St. Patrick & the arrival of Christianity in Ireland as well as celebrating the heritage and culture of the Irish in general. Celebrations generally involve parades and festivals and the wearing of green attire. St. Patrick is believed to have been born in Roman Britain in the 4th Century. According to the “Declaration” which was allegedy written by Patrick himself, he was kidnapped at age 16, by Irish raiders and taken as a slave to Gaelic Ireland, where he spend 6 years working as a shephard. There he “found God”. Later he escaped, made his way back home and went on to become a priest. According to tradition, Patrick returned to Ireland to convert the pagan Irish to Christianity. Legend says he used the 3-leaf shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity to Irish pagans. This story first appeared in writing in 1726, though it may be older. In pagan Ireland, three was a significant number as they had many triple Deities. The color green has been associated with Ireland since at least the 1640s and green ribbons and shamrocks have been worn on St. Patrick’s Day since at least the 1680s. Every year on March 17, the Irish and the Irish-at-heart across the globe observe this day with parades, dancing, special foods and a whole lot of green. For more information see: http://www.history.com/topics/st-patricks-day To find what is planned for New Jersey, including Ocean County see: http://www.st-patricks-day.com/st_patricks_day_parades_united_states_new_jersey/ “Remember that if you don’t have the information that you need on almost any subject, you should Google it and you will find a list of possible sources to tell you about it.” Plan now to attend the next Computer Club Meeting scheduled for the Third Thursday of each month at 1:30pm. Refreshments will be served. 10 THE GREENBRIAR TIMES APRIL 2015 Greenbriar Association Trustees Business Meeting Minutes Monday January 26th 7 PM Carolyn Rubino called the business meeting to order at 7 PM Motiuon to Approve Architectural Report by Donna Curtis 2nd Bill Petrolino.

APRIL 2015 THE GREENBRIAR TIMES 13 Time to Take Inventory Part II by George Delmarmo In the first article I mentioned conferring with a professional, namely a bank. I also warned about being VERY CAREFUL . Following is a TRUE STORY. I have not embellished any of the facts. I was called by my banker that they were going to do an analysis of my finances “To help me achieve my financial goals”. It sounded interesting so I agreed to particpate. I was assured that it was FREE. I attended the first meeting where I was interviewed as to my financial position. I answered every question the banker asked and was told that I would be contacted soon. The bad weather we had interfered with the second meeting, but finally I was summoned to a meeting. My banker had an excellent plan for me whereby I would be receiving Fifteen Percent Return on my investment. I asked if the banker knew how to compute a return on an investment. The reply was, “You divide the amount invested into the income received and the answer would be expressed as a percentage.” I got up and as I walked out the door I explained that they had forgotten to divide by time namely in the example given the return would be less than 1%. I repeat THIS IS A TRUE STORY BE CAREFUL! I was very excited about what I was told so I went to the meeting. This is what I was told: “For example if I invested $300,000 in a fund for ten years at the end of that time I would receive $345,000. Which meant I earned a 15% return on my investment.” Ralph & Angela’s Barber Shop & Salon 1889 Route 88 East, Brick • 732-966-0002 (Across from Walgreens & next to Rt. 88 Car wash) Master Barbers & Hairstylist On Premises Experts in Flat Tops, Fades, Regular Hair Cuts & Women’s cuts, color, highlights,styling & more *Please Ask About Our Refer-A-Friend Program* Men’s Hair Cut Men’s Flat Top Men’s Crew Cut Gift Certificates Available!

As for myself, I have enjoyed the skiing down Central Boulevard and bob sledding around Blake Circle. Our lake has frozen solid and many are having a great time ice skating on the lake. AHH! Winter time in Greenbriar, you can’t beat it. Now, getting back to reality, Kiwanis literally went to the dogs this past month, but let me explain. Chief Bergauist came to our meeting on February 12th, and brought several members of his police force with him. They included Detective Bevelacque who showed a digital slide presentation on the sudden rash of scams targeting Senior Citizens and other subjects to be wary about. Then Police Officer Cansolo brought along “Gertrude” a dog who is trained to catch criminals. Believe me you don’t want to have Gertrude come after you, that dog has many talents in catching “Bad Guys”. The following week we had Officer Catalano pay us a visit with his trusted friend “Duke” who would go through a brick wall for his “partner”. These two are together 24 hours a day. Duke stays at Officer Catalano’s house when they are off duty. You don’t want Duke chasing you at any time as he has a steel grip and only lets go when his Officer gives him the release command. Also present was an officer from Toms River K-nine Patrol who also demonstrated what his animal partner is capable of. Remember when we were kids and saw Rin Tin Tin at the movies? On Sunday, February 8th we had a fabulous show featuring Maggie Worsdale and her husband Tom. All of Greenbriar was invited but due to our horrible weather it was not well attended. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon and the songs of World War II years sung by Maggie Worsdale along with letters pertinent to the war years read by her husband Tom were outstanding. It brought you back in time and those songs such as “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree” etc. brought tears to our eyes. These performers are going to appear in April in South Pacific at the Algonquin. Thanks go to Marie Dibblee and her kitchen crew including Helen Bershears, Sally Brooks, Mary Kirchner, and Joan Merola who made cookies and served them following the concert. Thanks also go to Ann Rokosny and Margaret Sheridan for selling 50/50 16 THE GREENBRIAR TIMES APRIL 2015 tickets and a super thank you to Danny Potenza who took care of selling the concert tickets. Thanks again to Rosalie Rabito for running another bus trip to Atlantic City on Wednesday, February 25th. These events help us raise the necessarty funds to enable us to fund Kiwanis charities. See what you miss by not coming to Kiwanis so don’t forget, we’ll leave the light on for you.

The story is about Michaela “Mike” Edwards who has lost her job in advertising, her apartment and her boyfriend, a stand-up comedian who used their break-up in his routine! She is at her wits end when she is coerced into a job teaching a class in Life Skills to a group of girls at a Charter School in Manhattan. Mike was raised by her father, an orthopedic surgeon, after her mother died when she was four years old. She was never a sugar and spice, feminine female and only had one friend, an Aussie journalist, Gunther. The story is a little slow getting started and most of the group didn’t like Mike at the beginning, but eventually we realized that through no fault of her own, she was missing a very important part of her life - how to make friends and accept that she needed to relate to people in order to maintain a healthy balance in her life. The girls in her Life Skills class as well as Gunther, played a very important role in her “rebirth”. The book we are reading for the March 11th meeting is “Elizabeth Street” by Laurie Fabiano. 908-433-7750 Barbara Baatz, Owner Greenbriar Homeowner Ad 4519 APRIL 2015 THE GREENBRIAR TIMES 17 18 THE GREENBRIAR TIMES APRIL 2015 HALF BULLETIN REPAIRS DONE RIGHT!

We are now instituting a Neighborhood Dog watch and asking all residents to report any individuals who is an offender to the office. It is a Health and Safety Law and individuals who are not abiding by the Law can be fined. It’s Your Choice It’s Your Responsibility It’s the Law Hamilton (Hammy) is 7 years old and full of energy. Hammy is always curious about what’s going on in the real world. Hammy loves people, but dislikes dogs.

As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: “How heavy is this glass of water?” Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz. She replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.” She continued, “The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed - incapable of doing anything.” Remember to put the glass down.

She was the widow of the most decorated WWII hero and actor, Audie Murphy, and established her own distinctive 35 year career working as a patient liaison at the Sepulveda Veterans Administration hospital, treating every veteran who visited the facility as if they were a VIP. Any soldier or Marine who came into the hospital got the same special treatment from her. She would walk the hallways with her clipboard in hand making sure her boys got to see the specialist they needed. If they didn’t, watch out. Her boys weren’t Medal of Honor recipients or movie stars like Audie, but that didn’t matter to Pam. They had served their Country. That was good enough for her. She never called a veteran by his first name. It was always “Mister.” Respect came with the job. “Nobody could cut through VA red tape faster than Mrs. Murphy,” said veteran Stephen Sherman, speaking for thousands of veterans she befriended over the years. “Many times I watched her march a veteran who had been waiting more than an hour right into the doctor’s office.” She was even reprimanded a few times, but it didn’t matter to Mrs. Murphy. “Only her boys mattered. She was our angel.” Audie Murphy died broke in a plane crash in 1971, squandering millions of dollars on gambling, bad investments, and yes, other women. “Even with the adultery and desertion at the end, he always remained my hero.” She went from a comfortable ranch-style home in Van Nuys where she raised two sons in a small apartment - taking a clerk’s job at the nearby VA to support herself and start paying off her faded movie star husband’s debts. At first, no one knew who she was. Soon, though, word spread through the VA that the nice woman with the clipboard was Audie Murphy’s widow. It was like saying General Patton had just walked in the front door. Men with tears in their eyes walked up to her and gave her a hug. “Thank you,” they said, over and over. The first couple of years, the hugs were more for Audie’s memory as a war hero. The last 30 years, they were for Pam. In 2002, Pam’s job was going to be eliminated in budget cuts. She was considered “excess staff.” “I don’t think helping cut down on veterans’ complaints and showing them the respect they deserve should be considered excess staff.” Neither did the veterans. They went ballistic, holding a rally for her outside the VA gates. Pretty soon, word came down from the top of the VA. Pam Murphy was no longer considered “excess staff.” She remained working full time at the VA until 2007 when she was 87. “The last time she was here was a couple of years ago for the conference we had for homeless veterans,” said Becky James, coordinator of the VA’s Veterans history Project. Pam wanted to see if there was anything she could do to help some more of her boys. Pam Murphy was 90 when she died. What a lady!!

Try walking a few steps on your heels, then on your toes. Senior Balance Challenge Old McDonald says that there are many things you can buy to help with balance exercises, but for the most part, the best equipment is the floor. “It’s functionally relevant. People are not going to walk down the street on a wobble board. A high-density foam mat can be helpful, however. She likes to use the mat for what she calls the “senior balance challenge.” Here are the stages of the challenge. 1. Stand for 30 seconds, eyes closed. 2. Stand for 30 seconds, looking at the wall, on a high-density foam mat. 3. Stand for 30 seconds, eyes closed, on highdensity foam mat. WHO KNEW Old McDonald has health exercises we can do? I’ll drink to that by Joan Lydon Rodie Irish Diplomacy is the art of telling someone to go to hell, and having them look forward to the trip. Well, Irish Diplomacy was not needed last night as great pleasure and good will were plentiful. The tasty Irish meal (cooked by a German butcher) was excellent as was the soda bread on each table. We were exepecting music but were happily surprised when a WOMAN BAGPIPER came in. When she played the Armed Forces songs all service personnel who had served stood for their branch. Upon hearing “God Bless America” many others attending also stood. Over 200 people attended The St. Pat’s Gala - quite a turnout. Hats off to the trustees and volunteers for doing such an excellent job. No one had trouble finding their seats as each table with a list of names was posted in the hallway. Timely music by SHORE TUNES/JIMMY MAC kept the dance floor full, at one point, we even had a Conga Line through the tables.
