GILBAND: And I remember there was a long bar area before you got back to the dining room. SIMON: My father handed my mother a pair of dark glasses. So your father looked at me and he said, here, put these on. And we get to the restaurant, and your father went up to the valet park, and they said they don't allow dogs in there. He said, I know, but there'll be a heated garage, and I'll give the guys some money and they'll take care of the dog. And we knew we wouldn't keep neighbors very long that way.Īnd your father said, let's take her with us. Oh, very - it was a fancy place.Īnd we were about to leave, and we were at the elevator when we suddenly hear the German shepherd yapping, yapping, yapping and clawing, clawing, clawing. And it was one of these things where they would wheel carts up to the table, you know, lots of food, exquisitely done.
We were about to leave, and we were meeting two other couples there. GILBAND: And she was having trouble adjusting, and we were scheduled to go out for dinner this particular evening.
My parents had a new German shepherd dog, named Taffy, that they had just brought home to their apartment. My mother was expecting me and had a Santa Claus belly. SIMON: It was about this time of year, the early 1950s. Unidentified Singer: Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, had a very shiny nose. (Soundbite of song "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer") SIMON: So let's set the scene, if we could. SIMON: Now all of my life, I've grown up with a story that happened before I was born, right? SIMON: And we're in Chicago, Illinois, in your apartment, sitting on your living room sofa. GILBAND: My name is Pat Lyons Simon Newman Gelband. SIMON: But you forgot Lyons(ph), the name you were born with, though. PATRICIA LYONS SIMON NEWMAN GILBAND(ph): My name is Pat Simon Newman Gilband.

If you have a video cam around the house or if you have an old tape recorder or a computer - and while we can't, at Stor圜orps, take these interviews into the collection that goes to the Library of Congress, we have all kinds of suggestions for people on our Web site, on, about how to preserve these stories and how to share these stories with your families. We're asking the whole country on the day after Thanksgiving, November 28th, to take out an hour and stop, find a loved one, and interview them about their lives by any means necessary. ISAY: Well, the National Day of Listening is a pretty simple idea. DAVID ISAY (Founder, Stor圜orps): Hi, Scott. David Isay, the founder of Stor圜orps, joins us. Stor圜orps, which brings you the personal stories of everyday Americans, wants to start a new holiday tradition with you and me. The mom finished by letting me know how the children would remind her when she needed to adjust how she was thinking about something.Today we help launch a new chapter in the Stor圜orps project - a National Day of Listening. These children were all under the age of 12, and had many uses for The Secret – including their sports and friends at school. I began asking them questions about how they used the ideas. I was flabbergasted!! There I was sitting with young experts in The Secret! The mom went on to tell me that her children had been raised on The Secret, and that she had even read it to them in the womb. She told me that one of her children had spied me reading The Secret. In a few minutes they did return, and we struck up a pleasant conversation. I reached out to the Universe and asked for a second chance to love and appreciate them. As I read, I realized that I had not been sending love and gratitude toward these individuals. I spent the first 15 minutes or so feeling badly that the hot tub was taken, and couldn’t the kids use the pool instead? I finally just sandwiched myself into the hot tub and began reading.Īfter a few moments, the kids did leave for the other pool. I teach theatre to kids on a daily basis, and I look forward to some quiet moments in the hot tub to read The Secret. Upon arriving, a number of people were using the pool – including a group of kids in the hot tub. Being homeschoolers, we are on a later schedule, and love having the pool to ourselves in the evening. We piled in the car around 9:30 PM for our usual swim at the local hotel.
