HAPPY BUCKS:

RANDY: He just sent a text to JERRY telling him that if he shows up today we will have perfect attendance, but he is working the streets of downtown Toronto. He also informed us that he is still a member even though he has missed 5 meetings. He missed 2 because of business and 3 because he was away in Israel with the family. They had a great time, there were 16 family members at one meal and a great time was had by all.

D WAC: This Friday he celebrates 20 years as the owner of Drummers Choice. 20 years of nothing but fun and games. They marked the occasion with a friendly staff hockey game, the sales staff against the teaching staff, all had a great time, his favorite day of the year. (Congratulations on 20 years, hope you have at least 20 more, but make some money on the next 20.)

JEREMY: He and Stacey just celebrated their 23 wedding anniversary. (Say no more)

THE DRAW:

MARTIN sold the tickets, but after the many complaints, he had JACK draw the ticket, but D MAC won again, that’s almost as bad a Martin winning again. I did see money exchange hands after the meeting, but I don’t really know what went on, should have checked all the tickets that weren’t drawn to see if they all had the same number.

PROGRAM:

RANDY spoke briefly on his trip to Israel, the climate there, political and weather, and of the great time he had. He did get a Gastro Virus, and had to go to the Hospital for a 24 hour stay, He was well taken care of, and the cost was reasonable, and will be covered by his travel insurance, so all is good.
