Michael was a perfectionist, took good care of his things, and liked everything to be orderly. He even his kept his work truck clean and neat. He wasn’t afraid to try anything new, and always leapt at the opportunity for a new task at work.

Michael O’Conner looks around and asks, “Oh, me boys, someone’s got to tell Paddy’s wife. Who will it be?”
They drew straws. Paul Gallagher picks the short one. They tell him to be discreet, be gentle, don’t make a bad situat
ion worse. “Discreet??? I’m the most discreet Irishman you’ll ever meet. Discretion is my middle name. Leave it to me.” Gallagher goes over to Murphy’s house and knocks on the door. Mrs. Murphy answers, and asks what he wants. Gallagher declares, “Your husband just lost $500 and is afraid to come home.” “Tell him to drop dead!” says Murphy’s wife.“I’ll go tell him,” says Gallagher.
I hope you all have a Happy Easter with friends and family!!

Dragon Days” I agree with Paul ONCE A DRAGON ALWAYS A
DRAGON
first day of school…..you gave me my first teeter tot
ride……I thought you were awesome. ( :0 )
Hang in there you’re almost done. You were always a
survivor and you can get thru this. Thoughts and
prayers are with you each day. I have many memories of
you, me, Wanda, Vickie, Brenda, and Marsha. Those
were the days.
Paul,
Do you remember the Larson kids that lived in the house shaped like a
barn next to yours and across from the Fontaine’s. I remember your
sister Patty, you (you were in my class) and Peter and Parrell. We
had great fun playing at your house and climbing trees in your
yard….I remember playing with hoola hoops and Sister Rose marching
over to us and telling us we shouldn’t be moving our bodies like
that…it was sinful… We were in the 3rd grade and didn’t have a
clue what she was talking about. Your yard seemed a bit closed in
with trees and hedges (?) so I remember playing with them over there
so she wouldn’t see us. We didn’t want to go to hell! How is your
sister these days and where is she?
I thought some of you may be interested in attending the Fauske
Fiddler concert at the capitol in Bismarck on Sunday, March 30,
2008, at 2 p.m. We hope some of you can make it!
Fauske Fiddlers Honor Lincoln’s Legacy
The Fauske Fiddlers of Bottineau and John Halone of Rolla on
guitar will perform a variety of old-time folk music at 2 p.m.
on Sunday, March 30, 2008, in the Auditorium at the State
Historical Society on the capitol grounds in Bismarck. The free
public concert is part of the Sensational Sunday Performances in
the music month of March, and will honor President Abraham
Lincoln’s Legacy in North Dakota.
President Lincoln did some things that greatly impacted North
Dakota. In 1861, he appointed his personal physician, Dr.
William Jayne, to be the first governor of Dakota Territory.
Lincoln signed the Homestead Act in 1863 that offered a quarter
section of land free to anyone, including women, who could meet
the requirements. In 1864, Lincoln also signed the bill to
build a transcontinental railroad across the northern part of
the United States. In about 30 years, Dakota Territory changed
from an unknown frontier with just a few people to the State of
North Dakota full of people, farms, ranches and towns.
The settlers who arrived were mostly Norwegians and Germans,
with a few from other countries also suffering from drought or
depression. Many were young and single, and missed their
family, homeland, and traditions. Only the most precious things
could be brought, and they brought their fiddles, which were
small, light weight and could go anywhere. The Fauske Fiddlers
will play a variety of old-time fiddle tunes, including waltzes,
polkas and reels that were brought to North Dakota by the
settlers. The program will also include a few of President
Lincoln’s favorites, such as the Battle Hymn of the Republic,
Dixieland, Aura Lee, Nellie Gray and the beautiful, haunting
melody of Ashokan Farewell.
This concert is set at the beginning of North Dakota’s
observance of the bicentennial of Abraham Lincoln’s birth on
February 12, 2008. The state’s commemoration will be held in
conjunction with the official national observance, which begins
began on February 12 and continues through February 12, 2010.
