- Roost Apparel: An order will be going
to Red Sun for the 3 Raven's Head Flag Logo shirts. These have been extremely popular and I
know I get people asking me wherever I go, "Where did you get that
shirt? Can I buy one?" Don't get left out and don't assume that
there will be extras in your favorite color and size. The sweatshirt jackets can be ordered in
black and grey and are $25. The long
sleeved T's can be ordered in grey, black and purple and are $20. The short sleeved T's are $15 and can be
ordered in just about every color imaginable, but black and purple are the
ordered favorites so far. I've done
some in pink (ladies but hey we aren't judging), red (Terps fan) and
orange (Orioles fan) and they turned out really cute. I can also order children's sizes and of
course they are less (but it depends on what size you are ordering). This is the second order of these and
not sure there will be enough interest for a third, so if you want one (or
more), are thinking about one for a gift for your family and friends,
don't sit on this! You can place
your order by emailing Maggie at millermaggie@mchsi.com. Don't
be left out, get on the list for the order!
Football season will be upon us soon! Did your favorite player leave the team and
now you don't have a jersey and spending another $100 bucks just isn't in the
plan? How about a Roost 44 jersey? They cost $35 and you'll never be
traded! Email Maggie at millermaggie@mchsi.com. Various
sizes still available. Show your Roost
pride at the stadium!
New to the Roost?
Do you have a Turtle, Ox and Raven logo short sleeved T? We have a few left. Purple and grey available - cute logo $15.
Last but not least:
new Roost members might like a purple Hawaiian shirt for $40! Taking orders for those and hope to place the
order. And those of your whose shirt has
been "shrunken in the dryer"...you'll need a new one too so order
one! Also Roost 44 golf shirts - yes the
purple ones with the "slimming white side stripes" can be ordered
anytime. They are $35 and come in both
men's style and ladies v-neck collar style with a Roost logo on the left chest. An order for these will also be going in to Red
Sun.
Here's to being the best dressed Roost in
Maryland! Go Ravens!

- Tomorrow - The Barefoot Movement at Freeman Stage, Freeman Stage.
Heartfelt, energetic, and down home. Heralded by CMT Edge as “one of the most
promising bands on the bluegrass scene,” the music of the Nashville based
group The Barefoot Movement is as down to earth as their intention for
members of their audience: sit back, relax, take your shoes off, and stay
a while. All the worries and
frustrations of the world melt away as the charming four-piece acoustic
band takes listeners back to a simpler place and time. With crowds teeming with enthusiasm at
every performance, and new fans joining the fold across the nation, word
is surely spreading and the message is clear: barefoot is better. Won’t you join the movement? BYOC (Bring Your Own Chair). Free.

Sarah, a recently widowed Jewish lady, was sitting
on a beach towel at Cocoa Beach, Florida.
She looked up and noticed that a man her age had walked up, placed his
blanket on the sand nearby and began reading a book. Smiling, she attempted to strike up a
conversation with him. "Hello, sir, "how are you?"
"Fine, thank you," he responded, and
turned back to his book.
"I love the beach. Do you come here often?" she asked.
"First time since my wife passed away last
year," he replied, and again turned back to his book.
"Do you live around here?" she asked.
"Yes, I live over in Suntree, he answered, and
then resumed reading.
Trying to find a topic of common interest, Sarah
persisted. "Do you like pussy cats?"
With that, the man threw his book down, jumped off
his blanket onto hers, tore off both their swimsuits and gave her the most
passionate sex she ever had in her life!
As the cloud of sand began to settle, Sarah gasped
and asked the man, "How did you know that was what I wanted?"
The man replied, "How did you know my name
was Katz"?
