| CLUB BULLETINS |
| Our Club's Bulletin is produced weekly by Ray DeMarco. We post the four most recent issues. FEBRUARY 14, 2008 Valentine's Day! Happy Valentine's Day to all of our female members who brighten up every Thursday and take us away from our mundane pursuits for 11/2 hours every week. We appreciate all of you more than you realize. On February 23 we celebrate the 103rd anniversary of the founding of Rotary. March is Literacy Month. Do something to show you're literate. I do every week by writing this bulletin. Come to think of it, I wonder how many clubs in our district have a weekly bulletin. I'll bet very few. To sustain the "information highway" I'm on, I just plunked down $20.00 for the revised and expanded book of Bartlett's quotations. Last week's bulletin contained a quote from Leroy "Satchel" Paige from page 774 of the book. If you're planning to go to the District Conference from May 2 to 4, forget about bunking down at the Mystic Marriott Hotel. It's booked! So you will have to be at the Hyatt. Ponderisms: How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered? Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the Clothes you were buried in for eternity? How is it that we put a man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage? Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV? Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground? Why do doctors leave the room while you change? They're going to see you naked anyway. Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane? If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat? Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, He sticks his head out the window? QUOTES FROM FAMOUS PEOPLE Sometimes, when I look at my children, I say to myself "Lilian, you should have remained a virgin." -Lilian Carter (mother of Jimmy Carter) I had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the Catalog: "No good in a bed, but fine against a wall." -Eleanor Roosevelt Last week, I stated this woman was the ugliest woman I had ever seen. I have since been visited by her sister, and now wish to withdraw that statement. -Mark Twain Santa Claus has the right idea. Visit people once a year. -Victor Borge Only Irish coffee provides in a single glass all four Essential food groups: alcohol, caffeine, sugar and fat. -Brendan Behan I never drink water because of the disgusting things that fish do in it. -W.C. Fields The cardiologist's diet: if it tastes good, spit it out. * Don't forget our Friday night social hour at the Dunellen Hotel. The Speras and I purchased most of the food you will enjoy, because of our euphoria over the Giants winning the Super Bowl! |
