From the Peanut Gallery Nov 19
Milestones in publishing:
It is not that there was a slight spelling "eroor" in the Sana Clara Weekly, it was the fact that the word SANTA was carried as SANA. This would not be so bad if the one error was buried in the copy...but this one was buried in the headlines. President Jan ably pointed this out to publisher Moles Barber. Moles said he was returning to work and would fine the entire staff. Some habits die hard. We eagerly await the coverage of Sana Claws at the Christmas for Kids party.
The last bearded President?
We ain't talking Abe Lincoln or even Phil Auger.....we are talking upcoming President Anton Morec. He is trying to decide whether to go for the Willie Nelson look or the I forgot to shave last week look. Time will tell.
An alarming trend has been noticed:
President Jan fined himself....again. The past presidents in the club have been aghast. This has never been done! Anton Morec is wondering if he will have to follow suit in 2010-2011. Stay tuned. That new beard may turn white next year. Maybe the members can start yelling out fine amounts for the president from the peanut gallery? This will be fun!
Mission City Community Fund dinner:
One kudo....and one only...to Miles Barber. He sold over 60 car raffle tickets at $100 each to lead the 23 member board of the Mission City Community Fund as well as filled the seats with table sales at $1000 per table and then had one of his ticket sales win the car. Not a bad night for Miles Barber.....our past president and all time fine king of the Santa Clara Rotary Club.
Jokers Wild:
The money is still there. Bob Ricks came up a loser. A few more cards to go and the cops will start going for multiple tickets again. See you after Turkey Day.
