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
Three dead bodies turn up at the
mortuary, all with very big smiles on their faces. The coroner calls the police to tell them what
has happened.
"First body: Frenchman, 60, died of heart failure while making love
to his mistress. Hence the enormous
smile, Inspector", says the Coroner.
"Second body: Scotsman, 25, won a thousand pounds on the lottery,
spent it all on whisky. Died of alcohol
poisoning, hence the smile."
The Inspector asked, "What of the third body?"
"Ah," says the coroner, "this is the most unusual one. Billy-Bob the redneck from Oklahoma, 30,
struck by lightning."
"Why is he smiling then?" inquires the Inspector.
"Thought he was having his picture taken.
