| From the newsletter which Sid edited for his NARFE (National Assoc. of Retired Federal Employees) group: In this issue of the Newsletter, the Editor had hoped to display a photo of a a two humped camel, a time-less pyramid and ROBERTA (UIBLE-KING, that is), the Editor's wife, but not necessarily in that order. ROBERTA, a four year member of Chapter 1469, had recently returned from a trip to Egypt and the Holy Land with her parents. The film was taken to the photo shop, and the return of the processed pictures was awaited with great anticipation. Alas, the Editor had to choose between photos of the rear end of camel, a pyramid that resembled a Phoenix slump block backyard fence, or a headless ROBERTA. Since all of these photos could be categorized as "non-newsworthy," the Editor had to settle on a photo of ROBERTA with a slick Jordanian operator who was trying to sell her an antique bridge across the Sea of Galilee as well as a genuine sliver from the stable where the Baby Jesus was born. And, yes, those are ear muffs ROBERTA is wearing, she has very delicate ears. |
