Betty MacDonald research in 5 continents

Petra:

Great Betty MacDonald news!

There are several excellent Betty MacDonald research teams in 5 continents.

For more info see Betty MacDonald fan club newsletter February.

We are going to share a very special Betty MacDonald fan club surprise soon.

Betty MacDonald fan club honor member Mr. Tigerli had been interviewed.
As you can imagine Mr. Tigerli is brilliant in this interview.
You'll enjoy it very much.

Doris, I had to cry when I was reading the very tragic story of young Jadin Bell.

I'd love to send Jadin  a butterfly.

Jadin Bell was such a sweet boy.

It's heartbreaking.

Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle's and Mr. Tigerli's cure

Doris:

Jadin Bell, 15,  teen from the northeastern Orgeon town of La Grande has been taken off live support a week after he attempted to commit suicide by hanging himself from play structure near a local elementary school.

Family friend Bud Hill, who considered Jadin Bell his nephew, said that underneath his perpetual smile hid a boy being tormented on a daily basis by bullies for Jadin Bell as gay.

I wished Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle or Mr. Tigerli knows what to do to change this very sad situation.

It happens all over the world - recently in the Netherlands - as Jacoba posted.

It should be stopped.

If Jadin Bell saw a wounded butterfly (as a child) he wanted to heal it.

The world needs many more butterflies like darling Jadin Bell.

Russian Betty MacDonald fan club honor member

Lada:

I'm in the process founding a Betty MacDonald research group with many international Betty MacDonald fan club members.

If you are interested, you are welcome to join us.

Aino, thank you for mentioning the very difficult and complicated job of the russian girl.

You know, artist and author Letizia Mancino, translater Mary Holmes and Mr. Tigerli himself are Betty MacDonald fan club honor members.

What about the russian girl?

She also should be a Betty MacDonald fan club honor member because she is very brave indeed.

Regards,

Lada

Betty MacDonald research teams

Aino:

I'd like to join one of the Betty MacDonald research teams.

I'd prefer Greta's, Anita's, Ole's, Martine's or Beat's research teams.

I have a huge Betty MacDonald collection which my greatgrandmother started to collect in the forties.
My greatgrandmother and grandmother had been in contact with beloved Bard family.
I'm willing to share all of these items and there are lots of it.

We'll be able to find many more of Betty MacDonald's and Mr. Piggle-Wiggle's treasures in the future.

There is always something new under the sun after all those years.

I'm very glad because I know every Betty MacDonald fan club member is convinced about this.

As Betty MacDonald's very bright sister Alison Bard Burnett says in her interviews with Betty MacDonald Award winner Wolfgang Hampel: There are too many terrible bores in the world.

I'd like to add: And we don't need any of these bores here!

We are very glad and happy having the most wonderful Betty MacDonald fan club and honor members.

My special greetings go to Perry Woodfin and Mr. Tigerli.

Mr. Tigerli, take good care of the russian girl, please.
Her job is much more complicated and difficult than most of us thought.

Enjoy your weekend,

Aino

Let's sail away and find new treasures every day!

I'll never forget Betty MacDonald fan club meeting during the Olympic Games in London.

Betty MacDonald and taxes

Simon:

an excellent start for Betty MacDonald fan club  in 2013!

Outstanding Betty MacDonald news.

Gerrit, your parents met Betty MacDonald and her sister Mary Bard Jensen.
We are very happy indeed to read your story and listen to the interview.
Thank you so much!

Gerrit, darling we are talking about famous French actor Gérard Depardieu, who has been sparring with his native country over 75 % taxes and has been granted Russian citzienship.

Betty MacDonald loved to pay taxes as she wrote in Anybody can do anything.
Do you remember the reason why?

Hoping our famous Betty MacDonald fan club honor member Mr. Tigerli and his russian girl won't have any problems with paying taxes.
Goscha, I really like them.

I'm writing a Betty MacDonald essay for Betty MacDonald fan club newsletter February.

Greetings to all of you especially to Antoine and his wonderful grandmother who is going to share some very remarkable Betty MacDonald items.

2013 will be a great year for Betty MacDonald fan club!

Betty MacDonald would say: No time for big bores!

Yours,

Simon

Betty MacDonald hated big bores

Gerrit:

many greetings to Betty MacDonald fans.

Antoine, I was very happy to read your great Betty MacDonald news.

Send me your grandmother's address, please.

I'm going to send her a Betty MacDonald surprise. She will be very happy to get it.

I framed my Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Jensen letters and photos  I got from my parents.

They hang over my desk and I can read and see them while working on Pc.

I promised Jacoba, Pieter and Astrid to publish a story in one of the following Betty MacDonald fan club newsletters.

I interviewed my parents with my video camera many years ago.

They told me about their very funny and exciting  experiences meeting Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Jensen.

You'll be able to see this at our next international Betty MacDonald fan club meeting.

Antoine, you mentioned you have a helper syndrome but I can understand Betty MacDonald very well.

Betty MacDonald hated big bores and so do I.

Betty MacDonald said it's a waste of time to have them around and she was right.

Antoine, who is this famous new russian citizen you are talking about?

I'm afraid I missed these news.

Goscha, I'm a fan of Mr. Tigerli and the russian girl,

Gerrit

Betty MacDonald not fond of bores

Antoine:

many greetings to Betty MacDonald fans and best wishes for 2013!

How is Mr. Tigerli and his russian girl doing?

Did Mr. Tigerli already send a 2013 present to beloved Linde Lund?

Astrid, excellent Betty MacDonald news.

2013 will be a very successful year for Betty MacDonald fan club.

I'm very impressed of new family pics and Betty MacDonald letters.

There is always something new under the sun after all those years although some very ignorant bores believe the opposite.  I can't help but I feel a bit  sorry for these poor ones! Maybe it's because of my helper syndrome as my son always uses to say.

I know very well  Betty MacDonald wouldn't.  Betty MacDonald wasn't fond of dull bores.

I shared some very interesting Betty MacDonald news with my grandmother who owns a huge Betty MacDonald collection.

Grandmother was very pleased and she is willing to donate some of her Betty MacDonald treasures,

You'll hear more about it soon.

Goscha, congratulations for your new very famous russian citizen.

Who comes next?

Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle, Nancy and Plum or even very famous Mr. Tigerli?

You'll never know. It's so exciting.

Antoine
