Nora Mylett

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

NORA

Look at that radiant aura
She’s truly the sparkling senora

The bright light of life
(And Brad Mylett’s wife) —

The lady we all know as . . . Nora

Her virtues? Who’s keeping score-a?
All we can say is – galore-a!

Sweet of voice and of face
Of poise and of grace –

Her name is well known – and it’s . . . Nora

Hardships? Not anymore-a –
The future’s a bright open door-a

The index is clear:
Her page is right here –

We’re, all of us, smitten by . . . Nora

What does her life hold in store-a?
More-a and more-a and more-a –

Desires fulfilled
The atmosphere thrilled –

Happy birthday to dear, precious . . . Nora

Happy Birthday
