Meeting This Saturday Jan. 22

WHAT NEXT?

The Picnic, what else. I have contacted the church to get the date for the picnic. I hope to get it on June 25, but will have to find out if this will work with the church. Alice will not be going to the church any more, so we will not have that connection.

Girls Night Out

Alice is going to try to continue the "Girls Night Out" even after she moves to Pennsylvania. Anyone wishing information about future NIGHT OUT events and dates should contact Alice.

Weekend in Pennsylvania

Anyone wishing to spend a weekend with Alice in Pennsylvania, contact Alice.

Dinner and a Movie

The next date is Jan 29. If you are interested in going, contact Pat.

Wives Meeting

It is not likely that we will have a wives meeting, not enough wives are likely to be at the meeting. We will try, but don't count on it.

New Members

We are always looking for new members. Any member may bring someone that they have meet. Please go out of your way to make a new member of visitor feel welcome and at home.

I have interviewed several in the past month and hope that some will come to the meeting.

$ MONEY $

The attendance at meetings is going down, and some members will soon be moving out of the area. If attendance does not improve, we may have some real money problems.

ANY OTHER IDEAS????

Anyone have an idea for a meeting?

Dec. is the Christmas Party. The rest of the year is open. If you have an idea, please give it to me. If you know of someone who can/will give a program, tell me.

HELP! WITH NEWSLETTER

For those who know me, this might come as a surprise, but I could use some help with articles for the newsletter. Simply email anything to me that might be of interest. Please keep it to about one half of a page as I do not have the time to edit and I can not put long articles in the newsletter.

Programs

I had a suggestion that we have a theme for the night. Everybody try to dress the same way. Business suits Swim suits, trashy, whatever. Or maybe a gown night.

HUMOR

Dear Faculty and Students:

God bless you for the beautiful radio I won at your recent senior citizens' luncheon. I am 84 years old and live at an Assisted Home for the Aged.

All of my family has passed away. I am all alone now and it's nice to know someone is thinking of me. God bless you for your kindness to an old forgotten lady.

My roommate is 95 and always had her own radio. Before I received this one, she would never let me listen to hers, even when she was napping.

The other day, her radio fell off the night stand and broke into a lot of little pieces. It was awful and she was in tears. She asked if she could listen to mine, and I said fuck you.

Thank you for that opportunity.

Sincerely, Agnes.

A Generation Match up

A college student at a recent USC football game challenged a senior citizen sitting next to him, saying it was impossible for their generation to understand his. 'You grew up in a different world,' the student said loud enough for the whole crowd around to hear. 'Today we have television, jet planes, space travel, man has walked on the Moon, our spaceships have visited Mars, we even have nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers with light speed processing... and uh....

Taking advantage of a pause in the student's litany, the geezer said, 'You're right we didn't have those things when we were young, so we invented them, you little twit! What are you doing for the next generation?'
