From the Prez –
Special thanks to Donna Tony Sue and Frank for all their

Also the many that helped too many to name.
We all had a great time and everyone enjoyed themselves. Great food, plenty of beer, horseshoes and

Our permanent meeting host is the
American Legion Post 166 located at Coastal Hwy and 23rd streets.
Please enter through the handicapped
door on the 23rd street north side.
All membership meetings begin at 7:30pm on the second Thursday of each
month. However, all Roost members are
invited to arrive early for food and drink specials at reasonable prices - a
great place to have dinner before or during the meeting. The Post only accepts cash for purchases.
The only likely changes to the
meeting schedule are for an outside summer meeting at our annual family picnic
and for a conflict at the post during the September bike week.
During football season we are invited
to the Post for a game viewing party with the big projection screen along with
tailgating food and drinks for sale.
Thanks,
Ron

From former Roost member Tanja Sas: I am trying to find
someone who would like to go the Bengals November 7th Thursday night game. I just bought PSL for first time and really
want to go, but driving that far with my replacement body parts is difficult,
plus I want to enjoy the game with someone.
My seats are in row 2 of the NEW ON-FIELD seats that are
brand new this year (located around 20 yard line in the end zone area the
Ravens practice before the games, on the Ravens side of the field. See attached. I also have parking in the lots closest to
Gate A.
I am looking for someone that would like to go to the game
with me and drive me there and back and be relatively sober to do so.
Given my handicapped body, I would like to be in an SUV style
vehicle, not a small sedan type car.
My other ticket would be
the driver's free of charge.
Thank you,
Tonja Sas

Funny Poop
A lawyer calls a plumber for
help...
The plumber assesses the situation and says, "I can fix it today for
$800."
The lawyer, surprised, asks, "How long will it take?"
The plumber replies, "I'll need about an hour to get a part from the
supply house and another hour to do the repair."
The lawyer, smirking, says, "Two hours for $800? That's $400 per hour! I'm a lawyer, and I charge $350 per
hour!"
The plumber nods and says, "Yes, I understand. That's why I left my
law practice."
