PEOPLE, PEOPLE, PEOPLE

Good afternoon Alpha Company. Just a remainder that some of you have yet to send your dues. Many of you have and I thank you very much. Your support is greatly appreciated.

I am hoping that this year our raffle prizes will be bigger and better. I have sent out 6 packets to hand picked, specialy traind ,highly motivated "A" Company troopers and asked them to help out with our prize procurement. I know they will do a magnificent job. I have a lot of faith in them.

Keep your televisions tuened to the Food Network in 2011. Frank Alls and yours truly just may enter the big Bar B Q contest in St. Louis. It is going to take some investigating but it may happen. If it does, we will propably become famous our first time out. There are about 500 entrees. I figure figuring as modestly as possible that Frank and I will make the top 5 right out of the shute. Tell me it ain't so.

Contrary to rumors, Ted Gagaki lives. I know, because I talked with him yesterday. Ted, hope you did well yesterday.

I would bet that because of all this snow that Tex will be on the road soon. Keep it dry Tex. Your powder that is.

By the way, the weather is so nasty here I thought I was in Ohio or Michigan or one of those other mid western, northern places.

Good Evening My Brothers,
Rat
