Happy/Sad Announcements

Happy/Sad Announcements: Keith Roy related his "Case of the Stolen laptop." After purchasing an Apple laptop on eBay, Keith noticed the owner's name recorded within & seeing the laptop was registered to a Florida primary school, became suspicious & called them. It turns out the laptop was part of a theft! By passing the seller's info to the Florida police, our gallant Sergeant-at-Arms helped apprehend the ring of thieves & received an all-expenses-paid (I hope) trip to Florida ready to appear as a court witness. Apparently recognizing the superior law-enforcing capabilities of a Canadian witness, the thieves caved in & plead guilty. Jolly good show, Keith. Hear! Hear! Appreciation was expressed for KR's story; he's now off to Mexico, Mary W. to Seattle for Pac. NW club exec. training, Barb E. toasted her new freedom, Teddie P. expressed her happy/sadness to Jerry Coleman, Fred D. is looking for a herbalist, Kon U. treated us to a Haiku to celebrate his receiving the tribute of a life membership in the Royal Architectural Association of Canada.
