Proclamation 4848—National P.O.W.-M.I.A. Recognition Day, 1981

June 12th, 1981

By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

Throughout American history our prisoners of war have been called upon to make uncommon sacrifices. In fulfilling their duty as citizens of the United States they have defended American ideals while suffering unimaginable indignities under the absolute control of the enemy. They remained steadfast even while their treatment contravened international understandings and violated elementary consideration of compassion and morality.

% "Coming up next on BHO," an announcer says, "It's 'Arli$$'!" This
% sends Patty and Selma diving for the remote. They tune in to the
% Channel 6 News.

Kent: Gentlemen, start your envy. "Mens' Wealth" magazine has listed the 100 richest men in the country, and coming in at number five is Springfield native Artie Ziff.

Patty: [to Marge] Whoa! Your old boyfriend.

Marge: Please -- we went out once.

Kent: Artie made megabucks with a revolutionary invention -- a converter that changes that horrible modem noise into easy-listening music.

[some footage of Artie demonstrating his invention is shown. He's in a computer store, and a modem is connecting somewhere. As it makes the usual electric squealing noise, Artie flips a switch, and it begins to play "Georgie Girl"]

Also available with lyrics! [flips a switch]

Modem: [singing, in Artie's voice, to the tune of "Georgie Girl"]

Hey, com-puter geek, You will be connected in no time.



% Marge's sisters wonder why she didn't reel Artie in when she had the
% chance. Marge tells them the story of how Artie went from a "sweet
% little shrimp" to an "octopus," as we here in TV land see flashback
% from "The Way We Was (7F12)."



Selma: Well, I think you should get in touch with him. You know, just to congratulate him on his success.

[nudges Marge's champale glass towards Patty, who refills it]

Marge: Well, I suppose I could just write him a letter.

Patty: Are you nuts? [points to a computer] E-mail, female.


% So Thoroughly Modern Marge and her sisters get ready to send Artie
% an e-mail. Marge drinks champale and tries to think of what to say.
% Patty sits at the computer and helps her along.



Selma: You just tell us what you want to say.

Marge: Okay, hold on to your hats. [takes a sip of her drink] Dear Artie ... [giggles]

Patty: [types] Dear Hottie ...

Marge: Congratulations on your recent TV appearance.

Patty: I want to sex you up. Your love slave, Marge.

Marge: [gasps] You can't use the word "sex" on the internet.

Patty: Watch me. [presses a button, and sends the message on its way]



% Forbidden words or not, the message zips over to Artie's Silicon
% Valley office (pausing for a moment at a Cisco router). Artie sorts
% through the day's mail.



Artie: [bored] Anti-trust suit, anti-trust suit ... [yawns] [perks up] A note from Marge Simpson? Well, isn't that a coincidence. I was just thinking about her ...

Proclamation 4847—National Safe Boating Week, 1981

June 4th, 1981


By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

Americans enjoy a multitude of sports and recreational activities that serve to refresh the body and spirit. For many of our citizens, recreation means boating.

Those involved in recreational boating should always remember that the primary responsibility for safety rests with the individual. And while a cruise can be a wonderful experience for one person or an entire family, it can also result in tragedy.

Aware of the need for boating safety, the Congress enacted the joint resolution of June 4, 1958 (36 U.S.C. 161) as amended, requesting that the President proclaim a National Safe Boating Week.

Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the week beginning on June 7, 1981 as National Safe Boating Week.
