Fines, Happy Bucks, Confessions:
• Dianne had a happy buck for the American Legion staff, who managed to feed us all tonight, despite the larger-than-expected crowd; and another for the GSE Team’s visit.
• Rory had a happy buck because there is a member of the “CSI” staying at their house.   Oops, he meant to say “GSE” – it’s okay, Rory.  The rest of us mix up acronyms all the time!
• Bob Yost’s son Nate has been deployed for several months, and Bob was honored to be able to travel with him back to San Diego via Nathan’s ship.
• Pat also had happy bucks for the GSE Team.
• Dave Read took a chance on the huge ($590 million) Powerball jackpot and matched the Powerball number.  He won $4.
• Gene had a happy buck for Margaret’s recovery.
• Edie offered a buck for Kari, who placed 11 out of 95 soloists in her recent competition.
• Eric C went to a Razorsharks game and won season tickets.
• Bob Sloan tells us that Rory missed the bus Wednesday, so he took him to school.  He ran into Bob Ike there, and said, “See you at Rotary.”  So, if Dr. Ike came to the Legion yesterday at noon for the meeting that didn’t happen, Mr Sloan takes responsibility.
• Gary happy-bucked for his daughter Ashley, whose girls’ modified lacrosse team remains undefeated for the fourth year in a row.
