  • 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.

  • Marian Ciccero (aka Mama C) is looking for a roommate for the Tampa trip.  Gender is unimportant, being able to pay your half of the hotel stay is.  Contact Marian @ 443.880.0862.  Call her - she will not answer text messages.

Funny Poop 
  • A beautiful woman loved growing tomatoes, but couldn't seem to get her tomatoes to turn red.  One day, while taking a stroll, she came upon a gentleman neighbor who had the most beautiful garden full of huge red tomatoes.  
The woman asked the gentlemen, "What do you do to get your tomatoes so red?"  The gentlemen responded, "Well, twice a day I stand in front of my tomato garden naked in my trench coat and flash them.  My tomatoes turn red from blushing so much."  
Well, the woman was so impressed, she decided to try doing the same thing to her tomato garden to see if it would work.  So twice a day for two weeks she flashed her garden hoping for the best.  One day the gentleman was passing by and asked the woman, "By the way, how did you make out?  Did your tomatoes turn red?"  
No", she replied, "but my cucumbers are enormous."   
Etcetera

 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
