- January 1, 2014 - The Penguin Swim to Benefit AGH: The web site is up and it is once again time to join the RR44 Penguin Swim Team. The past 3 years we have taken 3rd place in the Team division. This year, the categories have been changed so that Bars and commercial establishments (like Bull on the Beach) have their own division. That means Civic clubs like ours will be competing against each other, so we have a huge opportunity to take first place in our division! We will have a hospitality room again this year for the participants to use before and after getting wet for a good cause. Ask your friends to join our team and go to the link below to sign up under "OC Ravens Roost #44 Penguin Swim Team". http://penguinswim.atlanticgeneral.org/search.cfm. Thanks, Gary

Funny Poop
- I had unintentionally become the center of attraction at Harris Teeter this morning. I was standing in the checkout and preparing to pay with my credit card when the cashier made the strangest request - she said to me, "Strip down, facing me." Well, I needed the groceries, so I did as told, but not before I had made a mental note to file a complaint with the management. There was some screaming and shrieking and I finally realized that she was referring to my credit card. I have been barred from entering the Harris Teeter premises.
Etcetera
- Got poop? Let me know! I’m going to try to get this out every Wednesday so if you get it to me by Tuesday I’ll try to include it. Your input is appreciated.

Baltimore Ravens, let’s go
And put that ball across the line
So fly with talons spread wide
Go in and strike with Ravens pride
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Ravens dark wings take flight
Dive in and show them your might
For Baltimore and Maryland
You will fly on to victory
