·        Penguin Swim:  Thanks to everyone who has donated to the RR44 Penguin Swim Team and/or purchased raffle tickets.   Your support, especially in this weird year of COVID-19 and all of its frustrating restrictions, is greatly appreciated.  With just 2 weeks left before the Swim, the Team is still hoping to reach our goal of raising $5,000 for this worthy cause.  For those who have not yet purchased a raffle ticket, we still have a few available, but they are going fast.  And they make great stocking stuffers for the Holidays!  Please contact me for tickets, or go to "www.aghpenguinswim.org" to make a donation.  Thanks for your help, stay safe, and have a very Merry Christmas!

Funny Poop

·        A little old man shuffled slowly into an ice cream parlour and pulled himself slowly, painfully, up onto a stool...After catching his breath, he ordered a banana split.

The waitress asked kindly, 'Crushed nuts?'

'No,' he replied, 'Arthritis.'

 

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
