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

Funny Poop
The only cow in a small Kentucky
town stopped giving milk. The people did
some research and found that they could buy a cow just across the state line in
Illinois for $200. They brought the cow
from Illinois and the cow was wonderful. It produced lots of milk all of the time, and
the people were very happy.
They decided to acquire a bull to mate with the cow to produce more cows
like it. They would never have to worry
about their milk supply again. They
bought the bull and put it in the pasture with their beloved cow. However, whenever the bull tried to mount the
cow, the cow would move away. No matter
what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull and he
could not succeed in his quest.
The people were very upset and decided to ask the Vet, who was very wise,
what to do. They told the Vet what was
happening. "Whenever the bull tries to mount our cow, she moves away. If he approaches from the back, she moves
forward. When he approaches her from the
front, she backs off. An attempt from
the side, she walks away to the other side."
The Vet thought about this for a minute and asked, "Did you by
chance, buy this cow in Illinois?"
The people were dumbfounded, since no one had ever mentioned where they
bought the cow. "You are truly a
wise Vet," they said. "How did you know we got the cow in
Illinois?"
The Vet replied with a distant look in his eye, "My wife is from
Illinois."
