Sue reported today that the final report for the FRG library has been submitted, and the Rotary Park committee has submitted to her the information needed to begin writing the grant for that activity.

One day, two old folks were playing cards when one looked at the other and said, “Now don’t get mad at me. I know we’ve been friends for a long time…but I just can’t think of your name! I’ve thought and thought, but I can’t remember it. Please tell me what you name is.”
Her friend glared at her. For at least three minutes she just stared and glared at her. Finally she said, “How soon do you need to know?”
