- From John Lennon: I am now the Vice President of Ravens Roost #134. I was drafted not vigorously pursuing this position. I joined this roost because it was closer to my home. I have two tickets plus the bus, for the 09/28 (Panthers) game. I also have an individual ticket and bus for a number of games. I am seeking my cost. Is it permissible to for you to mention this availability in one of your e-mails to 44 members? Our roost is small in number at the present time so interest in my tickets is limited. If this is permissible, please provide my e-mail address of jflennon1@verizon.net. Thanks! John

Funny Poop
- A father was concerned that his daughter hadn't revealed her heart condition to his future son-in-law. The first chance he had for a private chat, he asked his son-in-law to be, "Michael, are you aware of my daughter's acute angina?" "Sure," Mike responded, "and her breasts ain't bad either!"
- The businesswoman, in town for an important meeting, checked into her room at the swank hotel and unpacked her bags. Noticing that her best suit had been badly wrinkled during her flight, she telephoned the desk and asked the hotel's valet service to pick it up for pressing. Almost immediately after she hung up the phone, a knock sounded at the door, and there stood an elderly Chinaman, waiting. Impressed by the fast service, the career woman exclaimed, "My, you come lickety-split!" "No, ma'am," replied the elderly Chinaman. "Come to get laundry."

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
