PROGRAM    Image001.jpg (22417 bytes)              

Our speaker today was Barb Lynch.  Barb gave us an update on the efforts of Social Concerns.  Last year they gave out more money than they raised, but were able to survive because of a balance carry-forward.  A few of their clients are repeats, but the majority are folks who need help on a one-time basis.   For example, they helped 517 people with clothing; 231 with food and 42 with utilities.  She anticipates that the need for help with utilities will increase with the high fuel prices this winter.

JOKE OF THE DAY     

Two bored casino dealers are waiting at a craps table. A very attractive blonde lady comes in and wants to bet twenty thousand dollars on a single roll of the dice. She says, "I hope you don't mind, but I feel much luckier when I'm completely nude." With that she strips naked from her neck down, and rolls the dice while yelling, "Momma needs new clothes!" Then she hollers..."YES! YES! I WON! IWON!"

Then she begins jumping up and down and hugging each of the dealers.

With that she picks up her money and clothes and quickly leaves. The dealers just stare at each other dumbfounded. Finally one of them asks, "What did she roll anyway?". The other answers, "I thought YOU were watching!"
