Gentlemen,

For all those who missed out on the Breakfast with the Easter Bunny, the kinettes put on another great event. A whole lot of pancakes, sausage and taters where served up to approx 1000 people. A big pat on the girls shoulders and all the volunteers for their efforts.

To bring everyone up to speed with our competitors, see the editorial below that was printed in The News Source. In my opinion… nothing to worry about so far!

Fort William Rotary unveils dream home Tb News SourceWeb Posted: 3/11/2008 7:45:59 PM  

Can you imagine stepping over the threshold of a brand new, dream home? The 22nd installment of the Fort William Rotary Canada Day House Lottery officially got underway Tuesday as the newest dream home up for grabs, was unveiled

This year's house is located at 219 Saxon Drive in Sherwood Estates, close to the new Woodcrest School, and the two-storey home is valued at about $335,000. Building committee chair Bob Hookham calls it ''an ideal family home.''

There will be 7,000 tickets available for $100 apiece with proceeds going to support the George Jeffrey Children's Centre. Hookham is confident they will sell out despite recent struggles moving tickets on other dream home projects in the city.

The Rotary Club used the launch on Tuesday to donate over $155,000 in proceeds from last year's lottery to the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Foundation. The Fort William Rotarians have now donated over $1 million to the foundation through proceeds from their annual big-ticket, life-changing, draw.

Two Reasons Why Its So Hard To Solve A Redneck Murder:1. All the DNA is the same.2. There are no dental records.

A blonde calls Delta Airlines and asks, can you tell me how long to fly from San Francisco to New York City The agent replies, 'Just a minute...'

' Thank you,' the blonde says, and hangs up.

Two Mexican detectives were investigating the murder of Juan Gonzalez.'How was he killed?' asked one detective.'With a golf gun,' the other detective replied.'A golf gun?! What is a golf gun?''I don't know but it sure made a hole in Juan.'

This guy has been sitting in a bar all night, staring at a blonde wearing the tightest pants he's ever seen.Finally his curiosity gets the best of him, so he walks over and asks, 'How do you get into those pants?'The young woman looks him over and replies,'Well, you could start by buying me a drink.'

Grandpa was driving with his 9-year-old granddaughter and beeped the horn by mistake. She turned and looked at him for an explanation.He said, 'I did that by accident.'She replied, 'I know that, Grandpa.'He replied, 'How did you know?'She said, 'Because you didn't say 'asshole' afterwards.
