A Message from the President, John Glynn 

Well summer has come and gone.  I hope everybody had some time to relax and enjoy some down time.  On my behalf, I want to extend my sincere thank you to all those who called, visited and sent me cards during my brief period of incapacitation as a result of hip surgery.  It once again reaffirms to me the caring nature of the membership of this association of which I am proud to be a member.

DID YOU HEAR THE ONE ABOUT----

• The captain of a ship greets Murphy, a new crew member.  “I’m told you have never been to sea before, he says.  We’ll be leaving harbor soon, and as it is very foggy, I want you to go up to the crow’s nest and shout if you see anything.”  After about an hour’s sailing through dense fog, the message comes from above.  “Seagulls 400 yards ahead.”   “We are sea-faring men”, shouts the captain to the new boy.  “We take no notice of seagulls.”   “Well I think you should pay attention to this one,” calls back Murphy, “it’s sitting on the harbor wall."

 

• With a plate in her hand and a puzzled look on her face, the waitress stopped beside a table.  “Are you the boiled cod?” she asked impatiently.  “No,” the customer replied.  “I’m the hungry sole, with an empty plaice, hoping for something to fillit."

 

• The doting mother thought her little boy was a genius and one day when she met the boy’s teacher, she said, “I think Charles will go down in history.”  “He will,” said the teacher. “And if he’s not careful he’ll go down in geography and mathematics, too."
