Vice President Jim O’Driscoll, opened our meeting with a moment of silence
for the men and women serving our country overseas and our members on the
sick list. Bill Imperatore filled in as secretary for Lee, who is

Goldy's
Joke of the Month: |
An
old man went to the social security office to sign up. After standing in
line for a long time, it was finally his turn. The lady behind the
counter asked him for identification. He realized he had left his
wallet at home. The lady told him that it was alright. He could
just show her his chest hairs and if they were gray, she knew he was old
enough for social security.
After
everything was done there, he went home and told his wife how his day went.
He told her that he had forgotten his wallet and the lady at the social
security office just asked him to pull down the front of his shirt and
she could tell he was old enough.
After
listening to his story, his wife told him that if he had dropped his pants
he probably could have gotten disability too!
| I hope to see you at
our next meeting on May 20th.. |
