A blind man wanders into an all girls biker bar by mistake.  He finds his
way to a bar stool and orders some coffee.
After sitting there for awhile, he yells to the server, 'Hey, you wanna'
hear a blond joke?'

The bar immediately falls absolutely silent. In a very deep, husky voice
the woman next to him says,
'Before you tell that joke, sir, I think it is only fair -- given that
you're blind -- that you should know five things:
1. the bartender is a blond girl with a baseball bat;
2. the bouncer is a blond girl;
3. I'm a 6 foot tall, 175 lb. blond woman with a black belt in karate;
4. the woman sitting next to me is blond and a professional weightlifter; and
5. the lady to your right is blond and a professional wrestler. 

Now, think about it seriously, Mister.
Do you still wanna' tell that joke?'

The blind man thinks for a second, shakes his head, and mutters, 'No... Not
if I'm gonna' have to explain it five times.'

 

 
Have you ever wondered how a woman's brain works?
Well....it's finally explained here in one, easy-to-understand illustration:

Every one of those little blue balls is a thought about something that needs to be to be done,
a decision or a problem that needs to be solved.
   A MAN, on the other hand, has only two balls,
and they take up all his thoughts!
  (some told me they couldn't see this properly)
 

 

 

 


Our next flag day will be
Monday, September 1st
Labor Day

 

Larry Glass asks that everyone "keep him in their prayers", as he is facing open heart surgery as soon as next week.  The sooner the better, as a matter of fact, because he has an Aortic Aneurism, which kind of makes him a walking time bomb.
Larry had an angiogram on Friday which indicated both good and bad news.  It confirmed the need for either robotic or open-heart surgery (to be decided on Tuesday by his surgeon) to repair his aorta, but it showed no other damage or buildup of plaque in his arteries, in spite of a family history of this. 

If the robot is able to be used (depending upon the location of his heart in his chest), he could be out of the hospital in two weeks and back to work in three.  If not, he could be looking at 5 weeks.  As he put it, all he has to do is crawl off one more table and he's good to go".  This said, I guess, because he's literally had 6 tests in three working days.  Are ya' in a prayer group?  Mention Larry.
 

Dick Acott bragged (and had a picture & 50 bucks to prove it) that he and Constance have had "18,250 days of pure joy".

Roger Sample bragged that the last time he went fishing at Highlands Ranch he missed the pond!  Last week, when he and 9-year old Ryan went fishing, Ryan ended up catching 23 fish!

Randy Willard bemoaned his wood shafts. 

Norm bragged that he had a lot of fun last Friday.  He had his car in the shop for repairs last Friday, and was in need of a ride home.  He said he thought to himself, "Where can I find two schmucks that wouldn't remember not to show up at the Sertoma meeting??"  Well, he walked to the meeting, and sure enough, not one, but TWO guys showed up!  We begged and begged, but Norm wouldn't tell us that it was Rex Smithgall and Dan Kaup.

Terry Danielson mentioned a few more people who helped get the golf tournament going:  Dave Blomberg, Bill Green, Jim Norrgard, Don Simecka, Brad Dusek, Ken Borrett, Gary Ross, Mike Tarantino, Josh Benedict.

Bill Benton bragged that he is able to get along without a cane, 'cause the docs put him on oxygen, and it apparently "stabilized his brain".  So, he is cane free!

Tim Miller bragged on Craig Secher and his Realities for Children motorcycle ride.  We ended up, he thought, with around $2,300 for our coffers.  Craig was at the meeting and also thanked us for our help.

Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple
questions:

S * Ask the individual to SMILE.

T * Ask the person
to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)
(i.e. It is sunny out today)

R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.

If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks,
call 911 immediately and describe the
symptoms to the dispatcher.

Newest Sign of a Stroke - - - - Ask the person to 'stick out his/her tongue'.   If the tongue is 'crooked', i.e., if it goes to one side or the other , that is also an indication
of a stroke.

 

The Installation this year will be on Saturday, July 26th, at Stoner's house again.  It is expected that it will begin around 4.

THE AFFAIR

A married man was having an affair with his secretary. One day they went to her place and made love all afternoon. Exhausted, they fell asleep and woke up at 8 PM.  

The man hurriedly dressed and told his lover to take his shoes outside and rub them in the grass and dirt. He put on his shoes and drove home.  

'Where have you been?' his wife demanded.  

'I can't lie to you,' he replied, 'I'm having an affair with my secretary. We had sex all afternoon.'

 'You lying bastard! You've been playing golf!'
