The Art Dart to Sioux City was a fun experience and Barbara Rixstine has another one planned. She was also helpful in getting all the boxes of crap out of the trucks'n trailers and into the storage buildings when we came back from Rev. Greer's. What an asset to have and share those domestic qualities.
Also, a special thanks to The Windmill Inn in Nehawka, NE. They have put up with this irrepressible bunch for yet another year. Remember, we give them a break in December. There will be no monthly meeting this month because of Christmas and New Year's Eve.
That's it from me, folks. There are lots of stories this month for you to read. Keep those photos and articles coming and make Editor Bob happy. Merry Christmas from Sue and me.
Stolen Car TRAILER
On November 17, Marvin's car trailer was stolen from in back of Bob Shaw's house in Lincoln. A number of trailers were stolen that night and a tire place was robbed. Maybe a coincidence.
Marv's trailer is BLACK, 2 AXLE, WHITE STEEL RIMS, SOLID TREAD-PLATE FLOOR, 16' in length. The RAMPS are TREAD-PLATE STEEL and are STORED ON THE TONGUE, not underneath. It has SQUARE CORNER FLAT STEEL FENDERS. The RIGHT FENDER IS DAMAGED. There are CHROME "LADIES" on the rear of each fender. It probably has a NEW HITCH as the old one was not safe. Remains of WHITE PIN-STRIPING done by a drunken painter are all over the sides and tongue. Hidden identification abound so if you see anything similar in description please call 911 and Marvin 402-630-2201. There is a REWARD.
Presidential Humor Break
I've enjoyed talking to you, my mind needed the rest.
A banker is a pawnbroker with a manicure.
A bachelor is a rolling stone that gathers no boss.
Witness: Well, I thinkã
Lawyer: Don't think! In this courtroom you are to tell what you know, not what you think!
Witness: Well, I'm not a lawyer, I can't talk without thinking.My lawyer was in an accident. The ambulance backed up without warning.
Marv says that when he and Sue quarrel she gets historical. I said, "You mean hysterical." "No, historical. She is always digging up my past."
RETIREMENT
Dr. Jim Danielson announced his retirement as world-traveling PBS Peddler this month. He said it was time to relax and devote more energy to his hobbies, although he will still produce some shows for PBS, and run his popcorn, concession, and storage businesses. Dr. Jim will be relaxing and filling his leisure time with his love of British Cars. All of us at Flatwater and HMRNP wish him well as he becomes president of the Used British Car Dealer's Association of the Greater Midwest.
Frank Watts
We received word that Frank Watts is suffering a serious illness. He suffered a heart attack while at the Crete-Seward Class B State Championship football game. He was revived and underwent a triple by-pass. Sadly, he suffered a stroke after that surgery. He is currently recovering but has paralysis on one side of his body. Keep Frank and Bonnie, and their family, in your thoughts during this holiday season.
