"To me there are three things everyone should do every day.
Number one is laugh. Number two--spend some time in thought.
Number three, you should have your emotions move you to tears.
If you laugh, think, and cry, that's a heck of a day."
- Coach Jim Valvano of NC State University
"When you're a little bit dumb and naïve, things
get done that
no one believed could be done."

The Alma Mater
Words and Music by
Arthur Hundley, 1937
Within these sacred walls
we stand,
To praise thine honored name,
We sing to thee,
dear Newport High,
Thy glories we proclaim.
Chorus:
Hail, hail to the Gold and Blue,
We raise thy banners high,
And ever through thine
endless days,
In triumph, may they fly.
O Alma Mater, in our hearts,
We'll often turn to thee,
And echo once again the songs
Of thy dear memory.

Ue o muite arukoo
I look up when I walk
Namida ga kobore nai yoo ni
So the tears won't fall

Remembering those happy spring days
Hitoribotchi no yoru
But tonight I'm all alone
Ue o muite arukoo
I look up when I walk
Nijinda hoshi o kazoete
Counting the stars with tearful eyes
Omoidasu natsu no hi
Remembering those happy summer days

Happiness lies beyond the clouds
Shiawase wa sora no ue ni
Happiness lies above the sky

I look up when I walk

Though my heart is filled with sorrow *

For tonight I'm all alone

Sadness lurks in the shadow of the moon

So the tears won't fall

Main Page
redesigned 11/25/03 by my # 6 son, Dale Harty of NC
and again by me on 03/22/06
and 10/17/06, when the Site Map was added.
When the whole lower section of the
page
went nutzoidal on 07/05/07 (ARGHH!!!), I was forced to
redesign it again. I've done as much as I dare.
Well, I had, until it became unstable once more on 08/02/07,
so I reworked it again, then once more on 01/19/08.
