I'd like to thank the Academy, my third grade english teacher, Ray Waterman
and my Mother who has always encouraged me to enter into new activities.
(Which to date
I shown no indication of talent in any.)
I greatful accept this totally appreciated recognition, but do need to know
if the awarded southern hemisphere calender requires any special mounting to
make a "down under" calender readable in the northern hemisphere.
Opps, I hear the call to the Possum Lodge member's meeting. Please tell my
wife I'll be coming home right after the meeting and tell her I am sorry I
didn't win the Possum Lodge word game. The secret word was "Busy" and when
the hint was
"towards the end of the day and you see you haven't got all your work done
you tell yourself you had better get ?????".
I still think my answer that "you had better get.........." an ASSISTANT is
correct. (I mean everbody knows this is my Busy season.)
And in closing (OK, who said thank you????) please hold the following credo
close to your heart...
"Never let the truth stand in the way of a good story"............
(anybody seen the egress????????)
