Speaker

Larry Dean presented our program this afternoon.  He shared his recent experience bicycling across the U.S.  It took 50 days traveling 80 - 120 miles per day.  The group of 60 cyclists typically spent their nights sleeping on the grounds of small-town high schools.



Guests

Doc from Mtn. View was our only guest today excluding the speaker.



New Monta Vista Key Club Advisor

Happy/Sad Dollars

Only one person was either happy or sad about anything today.  Art plunked down a sad dollar on behalf of Dave G. because he forgot Kristin's birthday a couple of weeks ago.  Now that's just wrong!



Happy Birthday

To Fenton who celebrated #84 with a song
by Ray, Chuck and Jim.  And to Dave G.
who chose to have Hal, Bruce, Nick and Don
serenade him.  Kristin brought a cake in
honor of the occasion and when asked to make
a wish before blowing out his candles Dave took
his cue from Miss America and hoped for world peace.



Out 'n About

Doug traveled to Hawaii and reports that on both ends of his trek he was on the same flight as Lanie Wheeler.  He rolled the dice and was ordered to pay an $8 fine.



Miscellaneous

Doug received his 9-year pin today.

Anne reminded everyone that for the upcoming visit by the Lt. Governor she has declared a Joke-a-Thon.  Everyone is to come with their best joke and there will be hefty fines for any off-color or just plain bad humor.



Quote Of The Week

"Women speak because they wish to speak, whereas a man speaks only when driven to speech by something outside himself - like, for instance, he can't find any clean socks.
