Meeting Highlights: Monster Mash made for a festive song, thanks Jane Anne!
Last Week’s Thought: Thinking out loud is seldom a good idea. Neither is cooking bacon in the nude.
Sgts. at Arms All club politicians, past and current, had to pay for not being in the news. The seargants held a contest to see who knows what roles club members play. Many had to face the Wheel. There were many happy bucks all around for successful round table meetings. Sgt Dan Beyer won the pot. Foul play suspected.

President's Message
Jerry Fohrman
Good Morning Sunupians,
I was very sorry to have missed the last meeting, but the Flu had me under the weather. I am feeling better now, but won't be at this week’s meeting either, due to a prior commitment to attempt to put meat in the freezer. Hope you all had a great Halloween. I look forward to seeing you all on the thirteenth.
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest form of appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. John F. Kennedy
