#2 We are seeking a volunteer for a new position to be known as “M.S.N. Events Reporter.” This position would require someone that has the time, the writing talent and if possible a digital camera that can attend the various events we hold during the month and submit their article for either the weekly or monthly news.
Although the position is volunteer, any out of pocket expenses involved will be reimbursed if “in the line of duty.” This position would also be involved in helping with the maintenance of our web sites, helping with the weekly e-NEWs and monthly Network Newsletter. Anyone interested??
Drop an email with: “M.S.N. Events Reporter” in the Subject and just a brief “resume” and some ideas of what you feel you can contribute to the overall membership in this position. Thanks much, Thom

New Trick for Old Dog
If you ever have a question about anything sent to you telling you something they know and want to share with you or if you read an email and think that a deal is too good to be true -- go to http://www.snoopes.com/ and search for the truth about a possible misleading bit of information or a scam.
This in particular upsets me -- I, for one, have passed this along for a couple years now, only to find that I have been misled: “a couple drops Lemon Fresh Joy or Listerine in a bowl of water will kill of at an outdoor party spoiling mosquitoes dead from the sky - -

Last but Not Least - - The Jokers Corner
1. Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the hell alone.
2. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and a leaky tire.
3. It's always darkest before dawn. So if you're going to steal your neighbor's newspaper, that's the time to do it.
5. Don't be irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.
6. No one is listening until you fart.
7. Always remember that you're unique. Just like everyone else.
8. Never test the depth of the water with both feet.
9. If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments.
10. Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes That way, when you criticize them you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
11. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
12. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day. (and the fish are safe)
13. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
14. If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
15. Good judgment comes from bad experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
16. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
17. A closed mouth gathers no foot.
18. Duct tape is like the Force. It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.
19. There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works.
20. Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving.
21. Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it. 22. Never miss a good chance to shut up.
22. Never miss a good chance to shut up.
23. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
24. No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.
25. Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
