Senior Citizens' Corner

Big band era show­cased at dinner

Mon­day is our August catered dinner/meeting. It seems as though we just had our July din­ner, but, here we are. Remem­ber that if you have a reser­va­tion, that’s all you need. Every­thing else will be pro­vided.
Our musi­cal enter­tain­ment will be pro­vided by Judy Craw­ford. Her pro­gram will fea­ture music from the ‘40s and the big band era. Am I show­ing my age when I tell you that I love this kind of music?
Also, com­ing up fast is Sat­ur­day Night Cards. Keep next Sat­ur­day open for this.
The Fri­day Lunch Bunch will be order­ing in this week.
Don’t for­get to get your reser­va­tion in for our 40th Anniver­sary cel­e­bra­tion. It’s not until Sept. 16, but, I have a list started of those who want to join us on our spe­cial day. We will be serv­ing a com­pli­men­tary lun­cheon, have enter­tain­ment, draw­ings and give aways.
A doc­tor had a prob­lem with a leak in his bath­room plumb­ing that became big­ger and big­ger. Even though it was 2 a.m., the doc­tor decided to call his plumber.
“For Pete’s sake, Doc,” the plumber wailed, “this is some time to wake a guy.”
“Well,” the doc­tor answered testily, “You’ve never hes­i­tated to call me in the mid­dle of the night with a med­ical prob­lem. Now it just hap­pens I’ve got a plumb­ing emer­gency.”
There was a moment’s silence. Then, the plumber spoke up, “Right you are Doc,” he agreed, “Tell me what’s wrong.”
The doc­tor explained about the leak in the bath­room.
“I’ll tell you what to do,” the plumber offered. “Take two aspirin every four hours and drop them down the pipe. If the leak hasn’t cleared up by morn­ing, call me at the office.”
Talk to you later — J.
