- More information about Voting
- The information above was emailed to all persons on Frank’s email list. If you receive the Poop, you should have a ballot for absentee voting. Come to the meeting in January and you won’t need an absentee ballot.

Forward their address to Paul at 36977 Laws Point Road, Selbyville, DE 19975 or notify by email, pwneal12@comcast.net. Call Paul if you have any questions. (302-436-9017).

Ravens Poop
- The Ravens remained in the 6th playoff position by beating the Detroit Lions 18-16 behind Justin Tuck’s 6 field goals. This week, The Brady Bunch comes to town, 4:25 pm.
- I usually don’t get bogged down in all the playoff scenarios, but here’s one you might find interesting: If the Dolphins and Chargers both lose this weekend, the Ravens will clinch a playoff spot with a win.

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
