Local Poop

·       Tomorrow thru Saturday - Poor Girls Open - Ladies Only Billfish Tournament, Bahia Marina.  The Poor Girls Open is a ladies only billfish release tournament benefiting breast cancer research.  There are also added entry levels for tuna and dolphin.

This tournament was started by Capt. Steve Harman as a way for local waitresses and bartenders to have an affordable and fun competition while raising money for a very important cause.  The tournament continues to grow with over 100 boats entering.  Participation is not limited only to anglers as there are silent auctions, 50/50 tickets, tournament merchandise for sale, and other fun events helping to raise money for breast cancer research.  In the past 3 years alone, the Poor Girls Open has raised over $1.7 million and donated to the American Cancer Society.

Each angler or team may fish one out of three days.

Funny Poop

My wife asked me what my favorite time to have sex was?  Apparently "when you're at work" was the wrong answer.

 

Etcetera

·       Got Poop?  Let me know!  I’m going to try to get this out every Wednesday so if you get it to me by Tuesday, I’ll try to include it.  Your input is appreciated.

 

·       Our website is up and running.  Be sure to bookmark our address - www.OCRavensRoost44.com or go to our blog @ http://ravensroost44.blogspot.com/ for the latest news, notes and nuggets.

 

·       Life is short.  Focus on the good.

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
