Auctions
Lion Brad Board recently returned from his son’s seminary school graduation in Wichita, Kansas. While there, he visited the Toy Train Museum, which he highly recommends the next time you are in Wichita. He brought back a hat from that museum; it was auctioned off to lion Pat for $20.
Happy Bucks
Lion Pete, who was 50% of today’s program, had a happy buck for the other 50%, Dave Prewitt being at the meeting today. Dave and Pete are Lion Bob Line’s son-in-laws (not sure there was a happy buck for that fact, but we will let it ride), and Pete was happy because his grandson was starting basketball next week.
Lion Pat was happy because the rose bushes at his house, which he thought were dead, were blooming because of all the rain.
Lion Brad was happy because his son had graduated from the seminary school recently, and he was happy the 49ers were playing the Seahawks on Saturday. He is even happier today because the 49ers won 41-23.
Our guest, David Prewitt, was happy that he had won the no-fine badge today and made a dollar by selling it to Lion Pete.
Lion Karen was happy that there were four women at today’s meeting, and she was happy about what she said were “all the good-looking men at the back table.” (groans were heard from the rest of the men in the room)
Fines
Lion Allen fined Lion Elaine for talking while he was making his announcements.
Lion Pete fined Lion Karen for the “good-looking men at the back table” remark; where does that leave the other two tables he asked?
Lion Elaine fined Lion Pat for making the “I already got a bag” remark when he got the hat from Lion Brad.
