Mary Bard Jensen Society Event 2012

2012-01-15T01:59:00.001-08:00

Dino:

We'll organize the most important Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Event in 2012.
( Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter January Page 1 )

Join us, please. It's an unique opportunity to meet the international Mary Bard Jensen Society Betty MacDonald Fan Club members. Among them are several writers, artists and journalists.

We sent a message to Betty MacDonald Fan Club founder and Betty MacDonald Memorial Award Winner Wolfgang Hampel. Wolfgang is very busy with other projects but he should be there.

Regarding Wolfgang Hampel satirical poems we should offer a special Betty MacDonald Fan Club edition because we got so many requests.

Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members will be able to see parts of very rare interviews with Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald and her family.

Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans are delighted after reading Letizia Mancino's Betty MacDonald Essay.

We hope to publish the great Betty MacDonald Essay in other languages as a special Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club service for our many international Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans in 35 countries.

(Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter January Page 3)

Have a sunny Sunday.

Mary Bard Jensen Photo

Gitta:

I have a very special Xmas Surprise for you.

Over 30 years ago a relative of mine wrote several times to Mary Bard Jensen's husband Dr. Clyde Jensen. She was especially interested in the famous Bard Xmas family parties.

Very dear Dr. Jensen shared several photos of family Xmas parties by Mary Bard Jensen, Betty MacDonald, Alison Bard Burnett, Dorothea Goldsmith ( Dede ) and others.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club Xmas Newsletter includes several of these photos. I know you'll enjoy them very much.

Miriam, speaking of husbands and Xmas I have to tell you my husband agrees with Betty MacDonald's husband Don. He likes table trees. LOL.

To my daughters and me Xmas without a huge tree isn't Xmas at all.
So what will we have? Of course we'll have an enormous Xmas tree. Poor hubby!
He always says: Sometimes it's a bit complicated if you have three women in your house.

I can't tell you how much we love Xmas time.

Love,

Gitta

Mary Bard Jensen Essay

2011-11-08T06:36:00.000-08:00

Barbara:

Katrin, dear we tremendously enjoyed your Mary Bard Jensen and Betty MacDonald essay.

You described Mary Bard Jensen's and Betty MacDonald's typical Bard optimism and painted a great literary picture.
You included letters and documents in your very entertaining and exciting story.
We can read your warmhearted lines over and over again.

We are so grateful for your Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club contribution.
Katrin, thank you so much and please continue your great work and research.

Mary Bard Jensen's letters are my Nr. 1.

My Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club favourites are Wolfgang Hampel's interviews with Mary Bard Jensen's and Betty MacDonald's very witty sister Alison Bard Burnett.

Wolfgang Hampel's poems make us laughing all the time.
The poems should be published in a special Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Edition.
Wolfgang Hampel is like Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Jensen a real humorist with golden laughter.

I didn't know that a Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor Member visited Washingon State.
Hurry up, please and tell us the story. It sounds very exciting. Thanks a lot.
I'm sure some day I'll be there.

If your November is rainy and grey I hope you have lots of sunshine in your hearts.

Barbara

New Mary Bard Jensen Letter

2011-11-05T00:23:00.000-07:00

Katrin:

Good morning, Berni & Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

A Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Jensen Life in letters project is a very good idea.

Who wrote the best letters? I enjoy Gammy's colourful letters very much.
I wished I could read more of them.

Thank you so much for sharing one of Mary Bard Jensen's letters.

Can you remember what Betty mentioned about writing letters?
I hope you'll enjoy my Betty MacDonald essay in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter November.

I had to laugh about November, Betty's 'favourite' month.
We don't have a typical November. Even roses and other flowers are blooming.
Winter seems to be so far away at the moment.

Enjoy Life even if November is sort of rainy and grey.

Katrin

Mary Bard Jensen's life in letters

2011-11-04T00:23:00.001-07:00

Hi it's Berni speaking,

Petra, Lena and Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans, what about a project Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard Jensen's life in letters?

Betty MacDonald Fan Club Collection is really amazing.

You can find all the details in these letters even who is who in Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard Jensen's books.

Who do you think is the best writer in the family?

Betty wrote it was her mother Sydney.

I'll share a letter written by Mary Bard Jensen. I adore her intelligent and very funny letters. ( Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter November Page 3 )

Thank you so much for your contributions.

Wishing you a nice November, Betty MacDonald's 'favourite' month.

It's Lasse,

Hi Anita and Eartha Kitt II,

Thank you so much for sharing your very important information.

To me it's quiete a shock to learn the depressing facts of internment of Japanse, Japanese Americans, European and European Americans in a democratic society.

Over 31.000 people were kept interned until July 1948 - more than three years after the war in Europe had ended.

I hope we can learn from the past and we are willing to.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member Monica Sone was furious at the blatant disregard of her civil rights.

Monica Sone said to Betty MacDonald Memorial Award winner Wolfgang Hampel:
I didn't move from Seattle - they moved me away and I never came back.
( only for family visits )

Of course everybody can understand Monica Sone's feelings.
A democratic society has to protect the civil rights of their people. Otherwise it's no longer a democratic society. A simple fact.

In the camps, internees were seen more as prisoners of war than as civilians.

Just imagine the loss of property, the personal insults, the barbed wire, armed guards, the dust storms, horrible food, unfinished barracks, barren land, shared huts, inadequate washing and toilet facilities, green uniforms, military work details, snapping to attention at an officer's approach.

Therefore Monica Sone's Nisei Daughter is a very important book.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club founder, author, poet and Monica Sone's good friend Wolfgang Hampel told us that Nisei Daughter belonged to the very few books he was rereading. I know many of us do the very same.

Betty MacDonald encouraged her friend Monica Sone in publishing her book 'Nisei Daughter'.

Betty MacDonald said: 'Nisei Daughter ' is a very remarkable book, humorous and delightfully readable, that takes you into the heart of a Japanese-American family and into the mind of the sensitive, perceptive eldest daughter.
The internment of the American born Japanese during World War II is handled with honesty and rare dispassion. It is certainly to Monica Sone's credit that she she still sings God bless America.

Betty MacDonald's sister Mary Bard Jensen had the same feelings.

Betty MacDonald was right. Having Monica Sone's experiences I'm not sure I would.

I agree with John Heitman "In a world where there are lots of smoke screens and J. Edgar Hoovers, an individual can really be hurt."

Take care,

Lasse

2011-10-09T01:34:00.000-07:00

Hi this is Anita and Eartha Kitt II,

We lost a friend.

Eartha and I and many Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans are so sad.

I was rereading Monica Sone's 'Nisei Daughter'.
Mary Bard Jensen enjoyed Monica Sone's book very much.

I agree with Milion S. Eisenhower who asked:

"How could such a tragedy have occurred
in a democratic society
that prides itself on individual rights and freedoms?"

I didn't know that some 10,905 enemy aliens from Germany were interned - along with 16,849 Japanese, 3,278 Italians, 53 Hungarians, 25 Rumanians, five Bulgarians and 161 others.

In the camps, internees were seen more as prisoners of war than as civilians.
John Heitmann's research paints a picture of shared huts, inadequate washing and toilet facilities, green uniforms, military work details and snapping to attention at an officer's approach.

The most important question is: Do we really learn from our past?

The mentioned websites are really very important and we learned a lot.

May Monica Sone's and Betty MacDonald's spirit live forever.

Our world needs personalities like these outstanding two ladies.

Love,
Anita and Eartha Kitt II

921 SON, Nisei Daughter
Monica Sone spent her childhood in pre-World War II Seattle, in a part Japanese, part American world. Dinner might be steak and pumpkin pie or pickled daikon, rice, and soy sauce; there was American public school during the day and the strict formality of Japanese school in the late afternoons. "I found myself switching my personality back and forth daily like a chameleon. At Bailey Gatzert School I was a jumping, screaming, roustabout Yankee, but at the stroke of three...I suddenly became a modest, faltering, earnest little Japanese girl with a small timid voice." Her memories of growing up are vivid and full of marvelous stories, showing the confusion, frustration, and enrichment of living within two cultures. These elements come together when Japan bombs Pearl Harbor and Monica and her family are sent to an internment camp in Topaz, Idaho. Nisei Daughter describes the loss of property and the personal insults, the barbed wire and armed guards, the dust storms, horrible food, unfinished barracks, and barren land - and the efforts of the Japanese-Americans to maintain their ethics, family life, and belief in the United States. Monica Sone is furious at the blatant disregard of her civil rights, and yet ironically, it is during her time in the camps and afterwards in the Midwest that she finally brings together the various aspects of her heritage. Straightforward, searching, often funny, this is a highly readable account of one woman's experience living in many worlds.

Years of silence: The untold story of German-American internment

by Deborah McCarty Smith

More than fifty years have passed since the beginnings of the arrest and internment of European Americans in the United States during World War II. For the most part, the history of internment has been either quieted or distorted. For example, the majority of the best-selling collegiate and secondary school history texts in the United States claim that, unlike Japanese Americans, the German and Italian Americans were not arrested and interned; and both the print and electronic news media have propagated this myth.

56% of all internees (14,426 of 25,655) were Europeans and European Americans--Germans, Italians, Hungarians, Romanians, Bulgarians, even several Czechs and Poles.

The arrest of Germans, German Americans, Italians and Italian Americans began on December 7, 1941--four days before the U.S. was at war with Germany and Italy. [Source: ibid.]European and European Americans were kept interned until July 1948--more than three years after the war in Europe had ended.

Europeans and European-Americans accounted for 56 percent of all internees during World War II, according to Arthur Jacobs, co-editor of World War Two Experience: The Internment of German-Americans. In all, some 10,905 enemy aliens from Germany were interned - along with 16,849 Japanese, 3,278 Italians, 53 Hungarians, 25 Rumanians, five Bulgarians and 161 others.

In the camps, internees were seen more as prisoners of war than as civilians. Heitmann's research paints a picture of shared huts, inadequate washing and toilet facilities, green uniforms, military work details and snapping to attention at an officer's approach.

"Do we really learn from our past?" John Heitmann wonders, tracing parallels between the internment of German- Americans in the '40s and government plans to intern suspected communists in the '50s, Iranians in the '70s and Iraqis in the '90s. In the FBI Filegate flap of the Clinton administration, in current anti-immigrant sentiment, in anti-terrorist legislation that circumvents due process, historians hear ominous echoes of earlier times.

"There are some intrinsic flaws in human nature that reappear and are reflected in our institutions. It's a story of how institutions end up biting people," Heitmann said. "In a world where there are lots of smoke screens and J. Edgar Hoovers, an individual can really be hurt," he said, acknowledging a professional curiosity that is fueled by a personal quest to discover a part of his family history that is buried under years of silence.

"Self-identity is an important purpose of history. It's a handle or fulcrum of how you understand yourself better. We're all a product of a complicated past. I see this as an example of what anyone can do: history as a process of self-discovery."

Mary Bard Society Literature and Art

2011-08-01T00:50:00.000-07:00

It's Siv,

Excellent Mary Bard Society literature and outstanding art support us to see the positive aspects of life.

Of course I'm thinking of Betty MacDonald's, Mary Bard's, Wolfgang Hampel's, Monica Sone's, Darsie Beck's, Gwen Grant's and Letizia Mancino's works.
I hope to receive more info on artist and writer Eva Vargas.

They are like very good friends and I enjoy them nearly every day.

Today I visited Letizia Mancino's galleries.

When I'm reading Betty MacDonald's descriptions of her cats and I'm looking at Letizia Mancino's cats and islands I can feel golden sunshine even on a very cloudy day.

All my love to our international Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Community,

Siv

Good morning, here is Loni speaking

Greta, darling we hope you won't have any problems with Fifa Women's World Cup 2011.

We enjoy the Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fifa Women's World Cup 2011 Event very much.
It's so much fun to meet the international Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans.
I'm so happy and proud to be a member of Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Community

We have a great time here in Germany. Who will win Fifa Women's World Cup 2011?
Do you have any idea? There are so many excellent teams.

Good news for those who can't attend. You'll be able to see the Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Event on DVD.

Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald Fan Club's favourite is Dan with the very exciting Dorita Hess story. He has the ability to find out everything.
Thank you so much dear Dan for joining us and all the best for your other very fascinating Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald projects. They are really very interesting. ( see also Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter August 2011)

Mary Bard Letter Collection

2011-06-16T01:46:00.000-07:00

I'm Amelie,

Dan, you can be very proud indeed. Your contribution is really very important. Thanks a lot!
We know all the 'real' persons in Mary Bard's and Betty MacDonald's books especially very strange Dorita Hess.

Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members in 30 countries admire Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating stories, satirical poems and very witty interviews but also his brilliant friends.

I contributed a letter written by Mary Bard's and Betty MacDonald's fabulous grandmother Gammy.
The Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Memorial Letter Collection is very interesting and includes the most important letters written by Betty MacDonald, Mary Bard Jensen, Sydney Bard, Gammy and many other members of the family.

It's a great feeling to be part of Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club.

I hope Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member Letizia Mancino will publish her new story very soon. She is a great writer and artist.

I'm sending my love to Betty MacDonald Memorial Award winner and Fan Club founder Wolfgang Hampel and our international Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members in 30 countries and to our dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members.

Amelie

When you dream, dream big

Part II

Copyright 2011 by Letizia Mancino

Translated by D. Tsiaprakas

We'll meet on Vashon Island.

Don, your second husband is so very much nicer!

I love islands in North America: Though I know only the island „Mount Desert“ in Maine and not the island at the Pacific Coast –Betty's Vashon Island is near Seattle – however things seem to me to be very similar: Magic landscape, cosmic influences and thousands of small odd bits of land swimming in the wide ocean. Can they really swim? It looks as if they were wearing a life jacket around the lushgreen of the woods...

I like Betty's and Don's house! Though I am missing „STOVE“ still there is a mad washing machine that makes life here interesting. What ghosts are likely to live within it? (Don is a Scotsman, I think he has taken it out of a haunted castle). Betty's daughters also live here: They are capricious girls with silly notions! „STOVE“ could be the father! Pity, they have been nicer in the other books when they were still little and sweet!

However, there are nice cats and dogs: Betty is a great animal friend. She has even stored a huge amount of dog and cat boxes in the house. Indeed, the American kitchen is unbelievable!
When Betty can't buy food for humans – this happens with a stormy sea when the ferry boats can't deliver the island – she willingly resorts to those in the „worst case“.O, that culinary ability to adapt myself I will never develop! Do I perhaps eat the mice which my tomcat Tigerli brings me?

Betty's cook book is inexhaustible. From wild animals to marine creatures on the coast. In the Pacific fantastic fish and crustaceans live: Spoiled for choice! O seafood! „The king“ is the lobster, I learned in Maine!

However in Seattle it seems to be „Geoduck“! It's a sensation: It's got along neck! A sea giraffe? What's that? Betty help me! The damned name “Geoduck“ I don't find in my dictionary. The British encyclopedia Britannica doesn't know it either...Moment! I am looking it up in „The American Heritage Dictionary“. Thank God, I have found it: It's „a very large edible clam“. Clam of the size of 20cm.
What's the „cazze di Napoli“ in comparison to that? Mussels, shame upon you before the American! I look out of the window: Betty is crawling in the water with the whole family! Her daughter discovered Geoduck in the water. She grasps the neck of the animal! Clam is in a jam! It's caught! All are shouting for joy! What a delicacy! Betty is running into the kitchen: Clam is being prepared: I turn my eyes elsewhere, I don't want to see anything of it. I hear how the meat is smashed. Eggs are beat together with it. My stomach also feels sick.

Betty is calling to eat. I dont eat that strange animal. It tastes heavenly, says Betty! I believe

I will leave the island.

Mary Bard Jensen author's birthday

2011-02-04T03:56:00.000-08:00

Bonjour, I'm Arlette,

Happy birthday, dear Mary Bard Jensen and Betty MacDonald Fan Club founder Wolfgang Hampel.

Wolfgang Hampel's success story began in 1983 when he founded Betty MacDonald Fan Club with 4 fans. In 2011 we have members in 30 countries.

Wolfgang Hampel visited all the places where Betty MacDonald and her family lived.
He interviewed Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard Jensen's family and friends.
Betty MacDonald's very witty sister Alison Bard Burnett is beloved all over the world because of Wolfgang Hampel's unique interviews.

The international Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members tremendously enjoy Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating Betty MacDonald, Mary Bard Jensen and Ma and Pa Kettle biography, his satirical poems and very witty interviews but also his brilliant friends.

Betty MacDonald Memorial Award winner, author and journalist Wolfgang Hampel, meets the most wonderful personalities, for example our Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members, outstanding authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck, Gwen Grant and Letizia Mancino.

If you dream - dream BIG! Wolfgang Hampel's big dream came true because of his unbelievable strength and huge energy.

2010 was the most successful year in history of Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club with three international Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Events in Oslo, Stockholm and South Africa.

2011 will be even more successful.
The international Mary Bard Jensen and Betty MacDonald Fan Club ribbon is growing every day.
Mary Bard Jensen and Betty MacDonald Guru Wolfgang Hampel is especially delighted that we'll have the first Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Wedding in 2011.
More Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members and international Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club meetings will follow.

Wolfgang Hampel is currently working on a biography of artist, singer and writer Eva Vargas. Good luck and a million times good health!
We are looking forward to listen and read Wolfgang Hampel's interviews, stories, poems and biographies.

Thanks a Million for founding Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club and all the activities in the past and future!
Wolfgang Hampel shares his oustanding comical talent and brings lots of joy and golden laughter to all of us.

Have the most wonderful birthday ever, dear Wolfgang Hampel!

All our love in the name of Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members in 30 countries

2011-01-25T04:15:00.000-08:00

I'm Amelie,

Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members in 30 countries admire Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating stories, satirical poems and very witty interviews but also his brilliant friends.

I often visit the websites of our dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members Monica Sone, Darsie Beck, Gwen Grant and Letizia Mancino.

I' ll contribute a letter written by Mary Bard Jensen's and Betty MacDonald's fabulous grandmother Gammy.
The Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Memorial Letter Collection is very interesting and includes the most important letters written by Betty MacDonald, Mary Bard Jensen, Sydney Bard, Gammy and many other members of the family.

It's a great feeling to be part of Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club.

I'm sending my love to Betty MacDonald Memorial Award winner and Fan Club founder Wolfgang Hampel and our international Mary Bard Jensen Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members in 30 countries and to our dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members.

2010-12-12T02:57:00.000-08:00

Good morning Betty MacDonald fans,
it's Henning

I'd like to praise the outstanding Christmas story written by our great Betty MacDonald honor member, author Gwen Grant.

Thank you so much for sharing this very special Christmas gift.
Gwen Grant is a very gifted writer.

2010 was the most successful year in the history of Mary Bard Jensen Society.
When Betty MacDonald Memorial Award Winner Wolfgang Hampel started Betty MacDonald Fan Club in 1983 we had 5 members.

We 'll have Betty MacDonald Fan Club and Mary Bard Jensen Society members from 30 countries soon. You'll find all the details in next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. What a success story!

A special message for tiny, jealous dwarfs: A dream will come true if you believe in yourself and work hard on it. OK? The way our great Betty MacDonald Fan Club member and author Monica Sone describes jealousy is excellent. I totally agree. That's it! Monica Sone is a genius.

We have the great honour and pleasure to introduce a new wonderful Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member, writer, artist and President of a world famous literary Society.

This will happen in a few days. The new Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member even created a Betty MacDonald Gallery.

Take care and enjoy the season,

Henning

Merry Christmas Mary Bard Jensen fans

2010-12-08T08:02:00.000-08:00

Hi this is Stig,

Angie, your grandmother was a very wise lady as it is our beloved Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member Monica Sone. To me jealous people are like dwarfs because of their mental disorder. I dislike them very much especially during Christmas time

Very cold days in the State of Washington.

I know Gwen Grant's very special Christmas gift will warm our hearts.

I adore Gwen Grant's books. We can be very proud to have unique Betty MacDonald Fan Club Members like this.

Thanks a Million dear Gwen Grant for sharing this wonderful story!

‘ON TOP OF THE WORLD’

George One had been staring down at the Earth for a little while before he realised something was different.

But what?

Squinting, he concentrated on the big space telescope, the one that was always aimed directly at him. Well, at him and Mr. Estimet, he corrected, because whatever was different seemed to lay there.

‘Ah!’ he exclaimed, as his eyes focussed. ‘That’s it. There’s a new person on the telescope, Mr. Estimet.’

Mr. Estimet, who had also been looking down at the Earth, gently rocking backwards and forwards on his heels, suddenly came to life.

‘A new person, George?’

George zoomed in on the new person and read her name badge.

‘Tilly,’ he announced. ‘Tilly Moffat. Haven’t seen HER before.’

George and Mr. Estimet knew all the people who worked on the big telescope. They knew the ones who got excited about any little change in the Universe, just as they knew the ones who remained calm, even a touch aloof when a new star was spotted, or a new asteroid, or a new anything come to that.

George smiled.

Sometimes, just for the fun of it, he would throw a scrap of foil through the observation window, chortling at the sudden burst of activity below.

Hardly worth a moment’s amusement, though, he admitted, because then he had to go out and get it back and that wasn’t easy, not with the pulling and tugging of all those gravitational fields swooping and soaring around him.

Felt as if he’d been dragged through a force field backwards by the time he’d finished.

But there you are, as Mr. Estimet always said, there was enough junk from the earth cluttering the cosmos without him adding to it.

Now here was Tilly Moffat and George had no idea how she would respond.

‘And that,’ Mr. Estimet pointed out, ‘is because she hasn’t been behind the telescope before. Wasn’t it Zachariah Bumble before Tilly?’

Then Mr. Estimet also closed up on Tilly Moffat.

‘Looks quite pleasant,’ he observed, ‘for a person.’

George was not convinced.

‘Hmmm. Pleasant until she buys a great big field and builds a great big house on it with no regard for the non-humans who were there first.’

‘Now, now, George,’ Mr. Estimet began, then let it go.

His own eyes shifted from Tilly Moffat back to the earth. He could see snow falling in parts of that little world down there and he totally loved snow.

Adored it, really.

Why, if there was anything that could make him volunteer for the very next stint on earth as an observer, it would be snow.

There was no snow on their planet, no misty mornings, no blue seas and golden sands, no anything, really.

‘You know,’ he began, ‘despite all the things they do wrong…’

‘Which is practically everything,’ George put in.

Mr. Estimet stopped him.

‘I know, George, I know, but on the other hand, they do have a capacity for love.’

George One almost snorted.

Love, he thought. They had a capacity for love all right when they drowned the sea in oil and chemicals, when they chopped down the rain forests, when they polluted the air and chucked things into space without a thought for those living there.

But all he said was, ‘Really? They have a capacity for love? Are you sure about that, Mr. Estimet?’

‘Well, look at what some of them do,’ Mr. Estimet began. ‘Some try to save the whale and the tiger. Quite a lot of them are trying to save the world. Yes, yes,’ he held up a hand as George One’s mouth opened, ‘I know much of it is self-interest to avoid extinction but not all of it, George. Many of them, for example, work for peace and, most promising, millions of them care about people they don’t even know.’

George thought about this. Nope, he couldn’t believe any of these things but then, Mr. Estimet always had been a wishful thinker, although he denied it.

‘I’m not a wishful thinker so much as a hopeful energy source,’ he would say, ‘just like some of those people on earth.’

Now, he smiled.

‘Can you see those trees?’ he asked.

George looked down.

‘You mean the few they’ve got left,’ he retorted tersely.

‘No,’ Mr. Estimet’s voice was gentle. ‘I mean the trees with stars on them.’

‘Stars?’

‘Stars.’

There was silence for a moment as both George and Mr. Estimet winkled out the star dressed trees.

‘Hmmm,’ George murmured. ‘Very pretty.’

Mr. Estimet glanced at him.

‘Pretty?’ he repeated, and George blushed.

‘I know it’s an earth word,’ he said defensively, ‘but it happens to be one I like.’

‘And why not,’ Mr. Estimate smiled. Then, ‘Well, George, those trees are called Christmas trees. No, don’t ask me why. I have no idea. All I know is that they do this to them every year and what I thought was, we could put a Christmas tree on top of our planet to show the earth that we quite like them.’

‘At the moment,’ he added.

Ignoring the last remark, George said, ‘Wouldn’t it have to be an extraordinarily big tree?’

‘It would.’ Mr. Estimet’s agreement was instant. ‘But we can do that. We can put a Christmas tree in space with a star on its top branch.’

‘How about the North Star,’ George suggested. ‘That’s the brightest star we’ve got.’

Mr. Estimet shook his head.

‘Better not. They’ll get a bit miffed down there if the North Star suddenly disappears.’

When it was ready, George and Mr. Estimet sent their particle Christmas tree roaring into the silence of the Universe.

It was enormous.

‘Bite bare,’ George said thoughtfully, balancing the North Star on the tip of the tree, whipping a long strand of the Milky Way out of place then

draping it artistically over the branches so that the tree sparkled and shone.

For a moment, the whole Universe shuddered until Mr. Estimet put the strand back almost as fast as George had removed it.

‘Sorry,’ George said.

Other stars were fastened to the tree along with two or three glittering comets put on for a bit of interest and they were having a fine old time until George noticed Tilly Moffat staring up at them.

‘She can see the tree,’ he said.

‘Yes,’ Mr. Estimet nodded. ‘She can.’

The response was immediate from the little world below them and when George spelt out ‘HAPPY CHRISTMAS’ in very small stars, hanging them on the tree in place of the bit of the Milky Way that had been there before, Zachariah Bumble and the whole of the telescope team crowded around Tilly Moffat to stare at the Christmas tree floating in space.

‘Happy Christmas, George,’ said Mr. Estimet, holding the Universe steady as George carefully took down the North Star and put it back where he had found it.

In the deep still silence, George said, ‘Happy Christmas, Mr. Estimet,’ and glancing down at Tilly Moffat’s shining eyes, added one more word to his banner of stars.

‘HAPPY CHRISTMAS, WORLD.’

And to Mr. Estimet’s surprise, this time, George meant it.

Mary Bard Letter

2010-10-28T00:01:00.000-07:00

Good morning, this is Inga

Dag, I'll share a Mary Bard letter about her experiences with jealousy.

Jealousy is a very serious illness. These persons have no self value feeling. They act like angry childs, destroy everything and have a miserable life. Very negative persons, indeed!

I feel sorry for our beloved Betty MacDonald because there was lots of jealousy in her life.

You can find comments of other writers for example:

Betty MacDonald only wrote about herself and boring chickens. I can't understand the reason why THE EGG AND I is so successful.

It's so typical for jealous persons.

I'd like to change this sad subject now.

Let's talk about our future Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members. We are very happy and grateful.

Betty MacDonald influenced so many people including many writers and artists.

An excellent writer moved to the State of Washington because of Betty MacDonald's unique books.
An outstanding artist and writer will create a special Betty MacDonald Gallery.

We are going to introduce the new Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter and on our website in December and January.

I hope we'll meet us again in 2011.

My friends and I enjoyed the Betty MacDonald meetings so much. Thank so much for organizing these unforgettable events. It's the unique chance to meet so many international Betty MacDonald fans. They are very optimistic, bright, witty, brilliant and intelligent just the way unique Betty MacDonald is in her books.

I love you and miss you so much!

Wishing you a great time.

Yours forever,

Inga

Join our international Betty MacDonald Community with fans in 26 countries.

We are delighted to hear from you.

All our love to you and your families

Mary Bard, Betty MacDonald, Port Townsend

2010-10-11T01:16:00.000-07:00

I'm Jakob,

Stine, Alison Bard Burnett's memories of Mary Bard and Betty MacDonald in Chimacum and Port Townsend are my favourites.

The Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor members are unique personalities.

Wolfgang Hampel, Monica Sone's very good friend and author of Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography told us that Monica Sone is always delighted to hear from her fans.

It's the same with our other Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members, author Gwen Grant and Betty MacDonald's nephew, artist and writer Darsie Beck. If you have any questions or greetings don't hesitate to send them, please. The Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members are very happy to hear from you.

I admire Monica Sone's book Nisei Daughter. Betty MacDonald was right when she described Monica as Kimi the way she did in her book The Plague and I. Monica is very witty and intelligent although the subject of Nisei Daughter isn't a funny one. Just the opposite!

After reading Gwen Grant's book Private! Keep out! we want to read her other books.
Golden Humor! A gifted writer!

Darsie Beck's book and artwork are outstanding.
Betty MacDonald would be very proud. What a wonderful family with so many creative personalities!

2010 is such a great year for Betty MacDonald Fan Club.

Several new famous writers and artists will join us.

Anita, you and Eartha Kitt II are really Betty MacDonald Fan Club dream team Nr. 1!
We admire your outstanding Betty MacDonald research and your support for Betty MacDonald Memorial letter project.

Gerti, good luck with your fascinating project Betty MacDonald's favourite books and writers.

Yours,

Jakob

Mary Bard Jensen in Port Townsend

2010-09-28T01:29:00.000-07:00

I'm Stine

My favourite is Alison Bard Burnett's visit in Port Townsend.
She explains all the houses, places and shops Betty MacDonald described in The Egg and I.
Her memories of Mary Bard Jensen in Port Townsend are so very funny. I was very surprised. Alison Bard Burnett is darling.

I hope more Alison Bard Burnett interviews will come soon.

2010-09-19T12:29:00.000-07:00

I'm Ari,

Björn, we can't wait to see the Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde R. Jensen, Cleve Bard and Mary Alice Bard interviews filmed by your father. Did Mary Bard Jensen share any info about the story of Sandra, which Betty MacDonald mentioned in her book Anybody can do anything?
We would like to learn more about Mary Bard's book published in the thirties. We know so much more about it after reading Anita's Top Betty MacDonald Fan Club story. Anita also tells the exciting story of Dorita Hess. Betty MacDonald describes this rather strange lady in Anybody can do anything. Did Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde R. Jensen, Cleve Bard and Mary Alice Bard mention her in the interviews?

Björn, excuse my many questions, please but it's so great to have the opportunity to see all the members of the Bard family. I'm overwhelmed. It's such a great feeling.
I hope we'll be able to see these interviews and the filmed Betty MacDonald interview at the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club meeting.

Jens: Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and Betty MacDonald interviews have fans in 26 countries. I bet there will be many more fans in the future.
Isn' t this amazing? Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett are born humorists. Both delight their fans from all over the world. I'd love to have a Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD with his very funny poems and stories. What about a book? We adore Wolfgang Hampel's high humor and wit in Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his wonderful Betty MacDonald interviews.

Jens, it doesn't amaze me at all. As you wrote Alison Bard Burnett and Wolfgang Hampel
are born humorists. I heard many more Alison Bard Burnett interviews by Wolfgang Hampel will be published in the future. Come on, please. Do it! This couple is so funny. I can listen to them a million times without getting tired. Pure Bard and Hampel magic.
Wonderful story tellers, world painters, great entertainers. Alison Bard Burnett and Wolfgang Hampel share it with Betty MacDonald Fans from all over the world.
By the way I don't like poems so much but Wolfgang Hampel's satirical poems are as witty and charming as his Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and Betty MacDonald Interviews. Wolfgang Hampel's very funny stories about everyday life make us laugh aloud.

I heard one of the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter stories are about our beloved Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor members Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant.
When will it be published? In October? I hope so very much because I believe that these Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor members are outstanding artists and writers.

Yours,

Ari

Mary Bard Jensen filmed interview

2010-09-18T11:11:00.002-07:00

I'm Björn,

Anita, I was reading the first part of your Mary Bard Jensen Society Story in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. You are a genius! I guess Eartha Kitt II supported you a lot. Outstanding teamwork!

How did you find all these info about Betty MacDonald, Robert Heskett, Donald MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea DeDe Goldsmith, Jerry Keil, Joan MacDonald Keil, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Perry Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and others?

I have a surprise. My parents visited the Northwest in the sixties. Both are huge Betty MacDonald Fans and they went to Vashon of course and they met ........
Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Cleve Bard and Mary Alice Bard. We have many photos of the family and my father filmed them with his camera. So you can see and hear the Bard family. I'm going to present this at the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Meeting.
Mary Bard Jensen is very funny, indeed but you'll enjoy Clyde Jensen, Cleve and Mary Alice Bard as well. A wonderful family!

Jens, you wrote: Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and Betty MacDonald interviews have fans in 26 countries. I bet there will be many more fans in the future.
Isn' t this amazing? Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett are born humorists. Both delight their fans from all over the world. I'd love to have a Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD with his very funny poems and stories. What about a book? We adore Wolfgang Hampel's high humor and wit in Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his wonderful Betty MacDonald interviews.

Jens, I agree. I appreciate Wolfgang Hampel's most interesting info of The Egg and I, The Plague and I, Anybody can do anything, Onions in the Stew, Nancy and Plum and the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle stories. Also included are Mary Bard Jensen's books The Doctor wears three faces, Forty odd, Just be yourself and the Best friends series.

Any news of Betty MacDonald's filmed interview?

Bye for now,

Björn

Mary Bard Jensen,

2010-09-06T00:59:00.000-07:00

I'm Gregor,

dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans,

Mary Bard Jensen adored Monica Sone. The Betty MacDonald Fan Club story with Mary Bard Jensen's thoughts of Nisei Daughter is very touching.

Happy birthday, Monica Sone. I'm one of the many fans who would like to read many more books written by wonderful Monica Sone.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor member and author Gwen Grant sent this message to Monica Sone, Wolfgang Hampel and Betty MacDonald Fan Club

Dear Wolfgang,

I can't thank you enough for giving me the opportunity to write to Kimi.

Lucky day for me when you came along, Wolfgang!

Gwen

Dear Ms. Sone,

This is not to bother you or to require an answer but simply to pay homage to you and to thank you for the years of pleasure you have given me knowing you as Kimi.

Betty called you 'gentle, intelligent, considerate, witty and beautiful,' in her book and everything you said and did supported that summing up.
You were a great inspiration to me with your sweet and gentle behaviour and, of course, your dry and very funny wit. I'm sure many, many others found you so, as well.

I understand it is your birthday and hope very much that you have a lovely day.

Writing to you is something I would never have dreamt could happen so I am very grateful to you for allowing me to send this and for giving me the opportunity to once again thank you for being the Kimi I loved and still love so much.

Gwen Grant

Nena, I hope we can read your Betty MacDonald Fan Club story about Betty MacDonald's second husband Don MacDonald in one of the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletters.
Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating and witty Betty MacDonald interviews include many memories of Donald Chauncey MacDonald and I wished to have more information. Thank you so much for doing this!

Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald biography include very important details and facts of her life and work. I admire Betty MacDonald's books The Egg and I, The Plague and I, Anybody can do anything, Onions in the Stew, but also Nancy and Plum and the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle stories. Which is my favourite book? It's impossible to answer this question.
I love all of them.
Therefore I enjoy Betty MacDonald biography very much. It's an excellent opportunity to learn so much more of Betty MacDonald's life in Carmel and Carmel Valley. I'd love to go there to see all this and perhaps to meet wonderful Doris Day. Did Betty MacDonald and Doris Day know each other?

I admire Wolfgang Hampel's brilliant stories and poems. I can't wait to read new ones in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. A Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD should be available soon. Betty MacDonald would love Wolfgang Hampel's poems and stories as much as we do.

Take care,

Gregor

2010-09-04T01:03:00.001-07:00

Hi this is Nena,

As Wolfgang Hampel mentioned it's very sad that Monica Sone is a one book-author.
I'd love to read more Monica Sone books because her writing is excellent.
Nisei Daughter is so very touching.
Something comes in my mind. Can you remember what Betty MacDonald's sister Mary Bard Jensen said about one book authors in Betty MacDonald's Anybody can do anything?

Speaking of special birthday anniversaries, what about Betty MacDonald's husband Donald MacDonald?
Donald Chauncey MacDonald was born Sept. 2, 1910, in Council Bluffs, Iowa 100 years ago. He died in 1975 at the age of only 65 in Monterey.

I'm working on a story about Donald Chauncey MacDonald with many facts, information and photos for Betty MacDonald Newsletter.

In Wolfgang Hampel's wonderful Betty MacDonald interviews Betty MacDonald's beloved sister Alison Bard Burnett and many other relatives and friends tell the most interesting memories of Donald Chauncey MacDonald. I hope these interviews will be published soon.

Wolfgang Hampel's new Betty MacDonald documentary of Betty MacDonald's life in Boulder,
Butte, Seattle, Laurelhurst, Chimacum, Vashon Island, Carmel and Carmel Valley is really fascinating. My personal favourites are scenes of Betty's and Don's life in Carmel and Carmel Valley.

I hope that Betty MacDonald's filmed interview will be available soon. Where are the Mike Gordons, Bill Gates and Dagobert Ducks? Help us, please.

Wolfgang Hampel's satirical poems and stories are delightful and so very witty. It's a very good idea to offer a special CD and DVD of Wolfgang Hampel's work.

I've read Gwen Grant's PRIVATE! KEEP OUT. A very funny book!
Gwen Grant is a wonderful writer.

I adore Darsie Beck's beautifully written childhood memories of Vashon Island.
Therefore I'm also very interested in reading Darsie Beck's book. I'd appreciate some more info about Darsie Beck's book and artwork.

As I love Betty MacDonald's Nancy and Plum and Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle they will be the subject of one of my next stories for Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter.

Everybody is talking about next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory member. I only know it's a famous artist and writer and President of a worldfamous Society. Who is it? I can't wait any longer.

Bye for now and enjoy your weekend!

Mary Bard Jensen, Monica Sone

2010-09-01T02:49:00.000-07:00

I'm Margit,

Dear Mary Bard Jensen, Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member and Mary Bard Jensen's and Betty MacDonald's good friend Monica Sone celebrates her 91th birthday today.
Monica Sone is the author of Nisei Daughter. Monica Sone and her family had run a hotel in Seattle before Executive Order 9066 sent all West Coast Japanese Americans into exile.

http://www.washington.edu/uwpress/search/books/SONNIS.html

With charm, humor, and deep understanding, a Japanese American woman tells how it was to grow up on Seattle's waterfront in the 1930s and to be subjected to "relocation" dring World War II. Along with some 120,000 other persons of Japanese ancestry-77,000 of whom were U.S. citizens-she and her family were uprooted from their home and imprisoned in a camp. In this book, first published in 1953, she provides a unique personal account of these experiences.

"Monica Sone's account of life in the relocation camps is both fair and unsparing. It is also deeply touching, and occasionally hilarious."-New York Herald Tribune

"The deepest impression that this unaffected, honest little story made on me was of smiling courage."-San Francisco Chronicle

Wolfgang Hampel, Monica Sone's friend, author of Betty MacDonald biography, winner of first Betty MacDonald Memorial Award sent his very special birthday wishes:

Copyright 2010 by Wolfgang Hampel

Dearest Monica,

we are so very happy to hear that you are well again and wish you a wonderful birthday today. A Million Times good health and all the best!

I was rereading your book Nisei Daughter and I have to tell you that I agree with your many international fans. I wished I could read many more books written by great author and unique personality Monica Sone.

I also agree with the New York Herald Tribune review of Nisei Daughter: Monica Sone's account of life in the relocation camps is both fair and unsparing. It is also deeply touching, and occasionally hilarious.

Yes, that's it! Deeply touching, also occassionally hilarious! When I'm reading your great book ( Nisei Daughter belong to the VERY few books I'm reading over and over again ) I'm really deeply touched. I'm with you and your great family. I adore your outstanding book and even much more I adore your unique personality. You are a genius but very human and warm with a deep understanding and a golden heart.

The first time I heard your very warm voice I was lost. To me it's the most beautiful voice in the whole world. Voice and personality fit together in just a perfect way.

2010 was a very successful year for Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club.

Linde Lund and her Betty MacDonald Fan Club Event Team organized the Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Royal Wedding Event in Stockholm with many Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald fans from five continents.

They saw the swedish royal wedding of Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling.
Victoria is the eldest child of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, and belongs to the Royal House of Bernadotte. Born as a Princess of Sweden, she was designated Crown Princess in 1979 ahead of her younger brother.

Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club sent a wedding present, books written by unique Monica Sone, Betty MacDonald and some Betty MacDonald Interviews by me, Wolfgang Hampel.
When I heard it I was very amazed. What do you think about this, dear Monica?
I hope Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling will enjoy it very much.

Thanks A Million for your friendship.

Although we are far away you and your family are always in our thoughts.

Many hugs and greetings especially from Master Peter to great Lady Monica.

Darling Peter said to me: Monica seems to get younger and younger and you are getting older and older. Before you look like an ooooolllllddd Wolf and act like a grandpa you should better ask Monica, what her secret is. Perhaps she might be able to help you. So Monica help me please, will you? It's really urgent. I'm awaiting your instructions.

We have a Royal Wedding Weather today with lots of sunshine. The sky is so blue and there are no clouds in the sky.

We wish you'll have the same 'Queensweather' and the most wonderful birthday ever.

All our love

Wolfgang, Angelika and Peter -
your old Wolf and your many fans worldwide

Wolfgang Hampel Founder of Betty MacDonald Fan Club and Betty MacDonald Society

I'm Jens,

Anita, good luck with your Betty MacDonald Fan Club story about Betty MacDonald, Robert Heskett, Donald MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea DeDe Goldsmith, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Perry Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and others.

Let's talk about Mary Bard Jensen and her very kind and patient husband, Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen.
Some relatives of mine visited Seattle and met Dr. Clyde Jensen. It was many years after Mary Bard Jensen passed away. Clyde Reynolds Jensen valued Mary Bard's work very much and knew so many details. They had the same good marriage like Sydney and Darsie Bard. Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen's nickname was Jens. It's my surname. Funny!

Cornelia, listen to me, please. You wrote:

Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen answered my mother's millions of questions in a very friendly and detailed way. I'm not sure at all I would have done this because mother wanted to know everything. Mother is darling but can nerve sometimes. Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen shared very important info of Boulder, Butte, Seattle, Laurelhurst, Chimacum, Carmel, Carmel Valley, Vashon Island and Firland Sanatorium.

It was the same with my relatives. They wrote everything down Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen told them. I'll share it on Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. I'll have to ask my relatives because I remember there was even a tape with Clyde Reynolds Jensen's recorded voice.

I adore Alison Bard Burnett's goldies in Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews.
You can compare unique Alison Bard Burnett with her famous sister Betty MacDonald, although she never wrote a book of her own.

Thank you so much, dear Linde Lund. We can be very grateful that Linde Lund heard of Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews. Linde had the fascinating idea to share them with Betty MacDonald Fans from all over the world. Linde, you are great!

Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and Betty MacDonald interviews have fans in 26 countries. I bet there will be many more fans in the future.
Isn' t this amazing? Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett are born humorists. Both delight their fans from all over the world. I'd love to have a Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD with his very funny poems and stories. What about a book? We adore Wolfgang Hampel's high humor and wit in Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his wonderful Betty MacDonald interviews.

Morten, I agree. We have to find somebody like Mike Gordon, Bill Gates or Dagobert Duck who might be interested in purchasing Betty MacDonald's filmed interview.
Did you already ask your cousin? I'd die to see Betty MacDonald's filmed interview in colour.
I wished I'd be wealthy and prrrrominent. I'd buy Betty MacDonald's filmed interview in a minute.

Nice weekend.

Jens

I'm Morten,

We can't stop laughing while listening to Alison Bard Burnett's memories about her outstanding sister Mary Bard Jensen.

Anita, I know we'll enjoy your Betty MacDonald Fan Club Story about Betty MacDonald, Robert Eugene Heskett, Donald Chauncey MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea DeDe Goldsmith, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Perry Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and others.

Sandrine, Anita, Anja and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans, when we listen to Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald interviews we are laughing all the time. The same happens while reading Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his very funny poems and stories.
It's wonderful that there will be a new Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett CD and DVD. Alison Bard Burnett and Wolfgang Hampel share their golden laughter.
Anja, you mentioned one of your friends nearly fell off the chair while listening to them.
My aunt fell off the chair! It's not a joke. Auntie was ok but I agree laughter can be dangerous.

Take care,

Morten

Mary Bard, Betty MacDonald's chickens

2010-08-21T04:48:00.000-07:00

I'm Anita,

Good morning, Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

I'm working on a story about Owning Chickens for Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter.
You will learn many thoughts for example of Betty MacDonald, Robert Eugene Heskett, Donald Chauncey MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Cleve Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea Goldsmith whose name in Betty MacDonald's books is Dede of course, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and many other family members and friends.

Sandrine darling, you are right. A serious warning! Don't ever listen to Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews in public places. I did it in a bus. I felt off my sit because I couldn't stop laughing about this crazy couple. Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett share their witty experiences with family and friends but also about owning chickens. Terribly funny!

This new Betty MacDonald CD and DVD influenced me to write a Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter story about owning chickens. I agree with humor champion Alison Bard Burnett. She got it! When you feel blue you only have to listen to Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett. Don't do it in a childish way like I did. By the way I did hurt myself.

I don't agree with Geoff Taylor's description about owning chickens.

Hens make a soothing clucking noise?

Oh No!!!! They don't. I know it from practice.
They wake you up early in the morning. I'm a longsleeper. I hate their noise. It's just awful.

Everyone should have a dozen chickens?.

Everyone? What is the reason why? I never liked chickens.

They’re far more soothing to the jangled city psyche than colorful fish swimming in a tank on a bookshelf?

Oh dear, Geoff, stop it, please! This is kind of a very romantic feeling. I'm sure Betty MacDonald would hate it and I agree. A back to the country feeling.

I'm a city girl and love my wonderful cat named Eartha Kit, who is as beautiful as Eartha, the singer. Wild Eartha is a city girl too and of course we celebrated World Cat Day together.

Chickens give you eggs on your breakfast plate that are better and fresher than Bill Gates eats, unless he also keeps chickens?

Eartha and I don't need eggs, in fact we don't like them. I can't imagine Bill Gates keeps chickens. If so I'd be very disappointed because I adore his intelligence.
So you know how I feel about Geoff Taylor's thoughts.

I'd like to know what our very bright and charming Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant think about owning chickens. I'm really very curious. I bet they don't like them.

Chickens remain what they are. Stupid!
The world don't need their stupidity. We need more intelligence, tolerance and understanding. That's what we need.

Eartha looks at me and seems to say: Anita, dull chick you sound like a prayer today. You still have to learn a lot!
Isn't Eartha very wise? She is so much more intelligent than I am.

Have a nice day, dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans!

Anita

Mary Bard's Best Friends

2010-08-19T02:39:00.000-07:00

Bonjour, I'm Sandrine

Thank you so much for the wonderful Mary Bard Society News.

It'll be kind of a miracle to see Betty MacDonald in front of cameras for the first time.
It'll be such a great moment for us to see Betty MacDonald and listen to her very warm and feminine voice and unique laughter. I don't want to talk only about Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard, but also about the other family members especially Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's unforgettable sister Alison Bard Burnett.

Alison Bard Burnett shares very witty experiences with her family, friends and Mike Gordon. Be careful, please. Don't listen to Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews in public places like I did. I was sitting in a train and had to laugh so hard all the time. People gave me very strange looks. Alison Bard Burnett is a champion in humor like her sisters Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard. She deserves world wide fame because of this unique ability to make us laugh.

I adore Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating Betty MacDonald Interviews and biographical books The Kettles' Million Dollar Egg, The Egg and Betty, The Tragic End of Robert Eugene Heskett, Betty MacDonald and Mike Gordon, Betty MacDonald in Butte, Chimacum, Seattle and Carmel, Betty MacDonald's illness published by BMC 2009/2010.

My aunt knows one of Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's close friends. My story about this will be published in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter September 2010 including very interesting photos.

Cornelia, who is next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member? I'm very curious but have no idea.
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant are outstanding and I adore their books very much.

I'll never forget our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Events in Oslo and Stockholm. I hope there will be another one soon.

Yours,

Sandrine

Mary Bard CD and DVD

2010-08-17T04:47:00.000-07:00

Hello this is Dagmar,

Great Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club news!

You can order our new Mary Bard, Betty MacDonald and Alison Bard Burnett CD and DVD!
DVD and CD are different. You can see Betty MacDonald, her sister Alison Bard Burnett and other family members and friends in front of the camera for the first time!

We can offer you new wonderful Betty MacDonald Fan Club Items and a new Betty MacDonald and Alison Bard Burnett CD and DVD published by Betty MacDonald Fan Club 2010. More exciting news about Betty MacDonald's filmed interview will come soon.

Anne Elizabeth Campbell Bard was born March 26, 1907 in Boulder, Colorado, the second child of Sydney and Darsie Bard. Betsy and her three sisters and brother had an adventurous, somewhat unconventional childhood owing to the strong and creative personalities of their parents and Darsie's mother, "Gammy," and the many lessons in independence they survived gracefully. ( see story Betty and Gammy written by Wolfgang Hampel published by Betty MacDonald Fan Club 2009/2010 and Interviews with Betty MacDonald and her sister Alison Bard published on CD/DVD Betty MacDonald Fan Club 2009/2010. The interviews on CD and DVD are different ones )
When Betsy was 12 her father died of pneumonia, but the family's strong relationships and optimism remained intact through this sorrow and the ensuing financial trials.
Betsy (who later preferred the nickname Betty) said that for the Bard children, there were really only two household rules: "We were expected to be polite and to tell the truth, no matter how appalling. "Apart from that, the Bard children did as they pleased and went forth into the world with well-defined personalities, acutely-developed senses of humor and adventure, and a remarkable zest for life.
Betty married at 20 and went to live on a chicken ranch in the Olympic mountains. Her experiences there are chronicled in her first book, The Egg and I . ( see books The Kettles' Million Dollar Egg, The Egg and Betty, The Tragic end of Robert Eugene Heskett by Wolfgang Hampel published by BMC 2009)
Life in such isolation and hardship palled after 4 years and she returned with her two small daughters to her Seattle family just as the Depression hit. The amazing stories of their survival and triumph are related in Anybody Can Do Anything. Betty and her family had a wonderful friend who supported them during this very difficult time.
( see Betty and Mike by Wolfgang Hampel published by BMC 2009 and Wolfgang Hampel's interview with Alison Bard published by BMC 2009/2010)
Alison Bard tells some delightful treasure stories about this wonderful friend.

But Betty's career as a businesswoman was cut short when she contracted pulmonary tuberculosis and entered Firlands, an endowed sanitorium north of Seattle. Lying flat on one's back for 8 1/2 months doesn't seem the stuff of which humor can be made, but Betty did indeed spin gold out of straw, in The Plague and I.
( see Betty MacDonald's illness written by Wolfgang Hampel and published 2009 by BMC and comments of Betty MacDonald's family and friends incl. Betty MacDonald's wonderful friend Kimi )

After her recovery, Betty married Donald MacDonald and they moved their family to Vashon Island, leading an idyllic and interesting existence as portrayed in Onions in the Stew. While on Vashon Betty also wrote her works for children: the Mrs. Piggle Wiggle series and Nancy and Plum.

Betty and her husband bought a ranch near Carmel, but illness forced her to move back to Seattle. She died of cancer at the age of 50 on February 7, 1958. ( see Betty MacDonald's illness by Wolfgang Hampel, published by BMC 2009 and Wolfgang Hampel's interview with Alison Bard, published by BMC 2009/2010 )

Why is Betty's writing so beloved among so many people all over the world? The first and most obvious reason is that it's hilarious - sharp, sometimes irreverent. vivid and unexpected. Betty manages to find humor everywhere: on the early morning streetcar, in a hospital ward, in a home with two cranky adolescents, in job situations from farm work to secretarial duties. To read Betty's writing is to laugh -- often out loud, in public places, whether you want to or not. She has a terrific eye for the absurd and can paint a striking and side-splitting word picture in a few succinct strokes.
But Betty fans also love her optimism, her strength, her intense love for her family, her times of self-doubt, and the zest with which she approaches all of life and relishes simple pleasures.( see many comments of Betty MacDonald Fans in books, stories and interviews with Betty MacDonald's family and friends published by BMC 2009/2010 )

Betty's indomitable sister Mary Bard, whom we encounter in all four books but meet most vividly in Anybody Can Do Anything, also went on to write (her first book is dedicated to Betty, "Who Egged Me On"). Mary's books, The Doctor Wears Three Faces, Forty-Odd, Just Be Yourself, and the children's series Best Friends, are also much beloved by Betty fans who find themselves quickly becoming Mary fans as well. ( see Wolfgang Hampel's interviews with Alison Bard. She tells the most interesting stories about Mary, Betty and the Bard family. )
The CD and DVD interviews are different ones.

It's Carla,

Hi Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

I'll contribute something to Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Letter project.
Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen was really very kind and patient. I met some of his relatives and they said that he was very interested in Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard Jensen's work and life of the Bard family.

Nice weekend, Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans and Cornelia!

Yours,

Carla

Mary Bard Jensen, Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen

2010-08-12T00:58:00.000-07:00

I'm Cornelia,

Good morning Mary Bard Society and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

I'd like to tell you about my contribution to the Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Letter Project.
My mother was a huge Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard fan. She wrote a letter with many questions to Mary Bard Jensen's husband, Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen.

I'm convinced Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen was the world's most patient and kind doctor and husband, father and friend. Where are these guys today? Mary Bard Jensen was very happy indeed to find such a very rare exemplar.

Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen answered my mother's millions of questions in a very friendly and detailed way. I'm not sure at all I would have done this because mother wanted to know so many details. Mother is darling but can nerve at times. My God! This poor man! Mother asked a hole in Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen's stomach. Mother wrote back and there are three letters with so many, many information about Mary Bard Jensen, Betty MacDonald, Anne, Joan, Donald MacDonald, Dorothea Goldsmith, Alison Bard Burnett, Cleve Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Madge Baldwin, Darsie Bard and Sydney Bard. Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen shares very important info about life in Seattle, Laurelhurst, Chimacum, Carmel, Vashon Island and Firland Sanatorium. I know you will enjoy this very important documents.
I adore Alison Bard Burnett's golden memories of Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen in Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews. Everybody loved Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen and after reading his letters I know the reason why.

Cornelia

Mary Bard letter

2010-08-08T01:10:00.001-07:00

Good morning, it's Guni

hello Gracia and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

Gracia, you can be very happy because you own letters written by Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard and their mother Sydney Bard. I have an original letter of Mary Bard in my collection. It's a very interesting and funny one ( not boring at all as you can imagine) and I would like to contribute it to your Betty MacDonald letters projcect in case you are interested.

I wish you good luck for your Betty MacDonald, Mary Bard and Sydney Bard letter story and hope we can read it in one of the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletters.

Have a sunny sunday,

Guni
