| I Heard it through the Grapevine! |
| If you missed the car raffle in November you not only missed a great evening but the monkey got out of the bag. HA! HA! HA! Chased that little fellow all over that building! Not really, but a little something came out from within the grapevine. Although it is not official yet I have heard that Lion Gene Everette may be putting in his name for next year's Vice District Governor! I asked Lion Gene to send me his resume so I could list it. What a mistake! ROFLMAO! He must have spent $43.00 on postage just to send it! I thought it might be a page or two, really Lion Gene, 86 pages? Have you really done all that stuff? Let me try and get serious. I just want to say Lion Gene that I think it is great you are running. I will be getting his resume posted before long and also a picture so everyone can get ready for when you are District Governor! |
