Speaker
Our speaker today was Lt. Gov. Lanie Wheeler, who went over the goals of the division. They are to increase our commitment to young children, to develop leadership, expand membership, access Kiwanis International and support local clubs.
Guests
We had 6 members of the Palo Alto club visit today.
New Member Inducted
Margaret Lee was formally inducted into the club at
this afternoon's meeting. Margaret, who works at
the Bank of Santa Clara, has 2 daughters, 15 and 18.
Both are freshmen this year, one in high school
and one in college. She received her apron today,
so be sure and sign it sometime during the next 3
weeks.
In honor of her joining the fold, Art brought a cake for all to enjoy.
Joker - Joker
Today Richard won Joker-Joker and collected a $6 prize.
Have You Heard The One About.......???
A cannibal went to the tribe's witch doctor. "Doc, I've been feeling lousy lately," he said.
"Hmmm," replied the witch doctor. "Let's review your diet. Are you eating man or animal?"
"Man, doc. We're eating those Catholic missionaries we caught last week."
"OK, tell me how you cook them."
"Same way as always, doc. We boil them up in the big pot."
"Hmmmm," pondered the witch doctor. "Tell me more about these Catholic missionaries."
"Well, funny thing, doc. They all look alike! They're short, fat, wear long robes, sandals, rope for belts, and are bald with a fringe of hair."
"Well, that's your problem right there," responded the witch doctor.
"Those guys aren't boilers! They're friars!"

Happy/Sad Dollars
Art paid a happy dollar because one of today's guests was someone he used to work with at Lockheed.
Don Cooper from Palo Alto tossed in a happy dollar for some reason I didn't really catch. While going over notes with Richard, I was simultaneously (trying) to watch Judging Amy and my attention was not where it should have been. Sorry.
Ray paid a happy dollar for the Beavers.
Out 'n About
Richard confessed to going to the Orchid show in San Francisco this past weekend where he took pictures. His intent was then to go to the Chinese New Years parade, but weather and parking nixed that plan. He has the fine-free badge this month so no money was owed.
Doug took a romantic Valentine's Day trip to Moss Beach. He paid $5 in fines.
