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
Two 90-year-olds had been dating
for a while, when the man told the woman, “Well, tonight’s the night we have
sex!” And so they did.
As they are lying in bed afterward, the man thinks to himself: My God, if
I knew she was a virgin, I would have been much more gentle with her!
And the woman was thinking to herself: My God, if I knew the old geezer
could actually get it up, I would have taken off my panty hose!
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.
