Sounds great, I’m in. I found it interesting that you suggested Jim Todd to be Santa Claus. Let me tell you a story about Jim Todd that he’s too modest to tell you. For years, Jim would dress up as Santa Claus at Christmas, load up his car with Christmas gifts and toys and drive out to the poor, poor part of town and give gifts to the kids and parents and money to most of the parents. Most of the people lived in trailers, were barely making it, and needless to say, had no money to buy their kids presents or new clothes. Every year, Jim would bring happiness and joy to the kids and parents. You may have noticed that I said Jim gave money to MOST of the parents. One lady, in particular, Jim gave a gift but no money. She asked why she didn’t get any money and Jim told her that if he gave her money that she would just spend it on drugs. Jim told her to get off the drugs and next year he would give her money as well as a gift. I don’t know how that story ended, but I hope she straightened herself out, for her kid’s sake if nothing else. We all know how generous Jim is, but most of us don’t know the many stories about Jim opening his heart when nobody is looking. You are a good man Jim, an example of a true Christian, and I’m proud to have you as a friend. 

Kenny

Gents,

Lets aim for a xmas luncheon in early December….around December 7-10.Lets plan on having it at Bill Kellys clubhouse in Laguna Woods (Lieusure World) as he will not have to drive far or we can pick him up. I am thinking 11:30 or so.  Let me know what days work for you so that I can formulate a good time for all.  No gifts please but I do wear XL in shirts, 44R in coats, no diamond rings….cash is ok.

I think this will be fun. Someone dress up like Santa….Todd, you are nominated.

Stay well, old chums,

Stu
