Norm Rehme
 

Today we were fortunate to have our own Norm Rehme talk with us about photography. 
Norm related personal insights, tricks of the trade, and technical imaging technology available using PhotoShop ~ as you may be able to see from the pictures I took off the screen.  Even if you didn't know anything about photography, it was fascinating to hear a MASTER expound on his subject!

Greg Anderson bragged on his 16 year-old daughter, Sadie.  This amazing young woman recently returned from England where she was one of a fifty athlete pool picked to play with the USA U19 National Team representing the United States in international play.  Unfortunately, as Greg reminded us, those English players are really serious about rugby and pretty much cleaned a few clocks, handing them three out of three losses.  But, way to go, Sadie!!

Ed Stoner told us last week that he had Harleen Alexander as a guest recently.  He said "she is on two crutches, but is getting along fine".

Ken Borrett told us that the Northern Colorado Artist Association (the OTHER NCAA) will be hosting its 16th Annual Art Exhibition and Sale this Spring in Colorado . . . and guess who will be displaying there?  Yep.  None other than our own Kay Borrett!  Click HERE to see some of her works.

The Board meeting will be Tuesday, April 17th.  It will be held at North American Title Company, as usual, at 5:30.

Ronny Bush had a brag on his wife, Alice ~ seems she's gotten a bump up the ol' corporate ladder, and is now running the gates for Frontier.  Ronny says if you see her to say "hi"!

Ronny had a secondary brag that he flew to Telluride on Wednesday, I think he said, returned on Thursday, and made the meeting on Friday.  He did all this for FREE!  (Do they need any more help at Frontier???)

Dave Blomberg bragged on Terry Danielson's letter-to-the-editor that was published in the local rag 6 days ago.  As it turns out, Dave had a hand in it, as well as Don Simecka.  See the box below for a link to the letter.

Brad (Mr. Sertoma) Burns was not able to make the meeting today, but it was relayed to all that the golf tournament is still on for Mariana Buttes ~ June 8th with a 7:30 a.m shotgun start..  The cost is only $105 if you pay early.  Wait 'till the day of the tournament and it's $120. 
As da' Colonel told us though, "Put your money up or go away ~ You're not signed up until you pay".  Luckily, we are now able to take credit cards!

Our newest member-To-Be, Lee Cord, with an application and a check!.

*************************

Do ya' think Jim Manning ain't got balls????  Well, think again!
Jim was the lucky recipient in a drawing for a golf-ball-giveaway by dancing John McLean.  Seems John bought the golf balls with a charitable donation, but doesn't play golf.  Whattaguy!

Gary Cassell was the lucky recipient of the same deal the next week.

You'll notice, from now on, that unless we have an unusually interesting program, I won't be telling you about it.  Takes too much time, which I don't seem to have a lot of these days.  For the good ones, I'll make time.

If you'd like to see the letter to the editor that Dave B, Terry D, and Don S penned, click HERE.  It appeared in the Doloradoan April 7th.
We're told by people at the paper that the other picture taken will appear one of these days.  (The one with the picture Kathi Wright made saying "Thanks for the 32 grand)

Kruse turned a few heads ~  As he said though, "too bad there aren't more women here!"   (We know you meant Julie, Ryan!)


"What, me worry???"

"Rudy's last chance to save the nation"

 


There is a new study just released by the American Psychiatric Association
about women and how they feel about their asses. The results are pretty
interesting:

 5% of women surveyed feel their ass is too big.

10% of women surveyed feel their ass is too small.

The remaining 85% say they don't care; they love him; he's a good man, and
they would have married him anyway.
 

 

CHILI
A young cowboy walks into a seedy cafe in Prescott, AZ. He sits at the counter and notices an old cowboy with his arms folded staring blankly at a full bowl of chili.


After fifteen minutes of just sitting there staring at it, the young cowboy bravely asks the old cowpoke, "If you ain't gonna' eat that, mind if I do?"

The older cowboy slowly turns his head toward the young wrangler and in his best cowboy manner says, "Nah, go ahead."

Eagerly, the young cowboy reaches over and slides the bowl over to his place and starts spooning it in with delight.  He gets nearly down to the bottom and notices a dead mouse in the chili.


The sight was shocking and he immediately barfs up the chili into the bowl.


The old cowboy quietly says, "Yep, that's as far as I got, too."

(Let me know if you try this and it's any good!  Ed)

  • GIVE ME 5!

Larry Shealey’s challenge to the clubs is to strengthen your existing membership this fiscal year – to grow by a net gain of 5 or more members; that is, end the year with 5 more than you started with.

 At the International Convention in Norfolk, VA, each club that reaches the goal will be presented with a gavel that is embossed with President Shealey’s theme - SERTOMA: The Trademark of Service.

   
Understanding Engineers
Two engineering students were walking across campus when one said,
"Where did you get such a great bike?" The second engineer replied,
"Well, I was walking along yesterday minding my own business when a
beautiful woman rode up on this bike. She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want."

The second engineer nodded approvingly, "Good choice; the clothes probably wouldn't have fit."
