Dave Dreyfus moderated and rumor has it that Bud Crowninshield was on piano.  (I say rumor has it because, just for a change, I was late.)  Equally rumored was Rob Armano's debut shot at the invocation.I have said it about other meetings but this time I absolutely mean NOTHING HAPPENED!!!  There wasn't even a song for me to make fun of although some of our less mentally stable members were demanding one.  Sanity prevailed and we were silent.

Matt McGarry and Ken Hannan,.both of whom were absent.

Announcements:

Other than that Frank Terranova did ask me to remind folks of the boat trip on the 14th, there were no announcements.  Basically there was a "Happy Dollars" session and we went home.  Key dollars were contributed by Al Shafer and Frank Terranova to celebrate anniversaries.  Last of the big spenders Frank took the inestimably lucky Mrs. Terranova to a gala celebration at "the burger joint on Route One". Ah yes, Heathcliff, Rhett Butler, Frank T....the greats.  Rob Armano has a toilet trained daughter and Frank Firicano has a new grandchild on the way.  (from the California son, not from Andy Novelline and his wife.)  Pete Peterson paid in honor of Dave for getting the meeting done well before one o'clock.  

And that my friends was pretty much that.

Hurrah, Hurrah!  No more diapers to change!

Thought for the day:

I did save one good bit to close.  Felci and Huntah are back to their old betting habits.  I, apparently like all present, failed to get the whole gist of the bet but it involved number of Patriots and Jets wins.  All I care about is Felci chose to vote on a comparatively low number of Pats' victoties virtually assuring us of ten or more.

Forgive me Mr. Felci but I have to go with Hunter on this one!

Loozah.
