Mystery Hand shaker-   Brian named himself since he never gets to be the mystery guy.

Happy Dollars       Bartmann for his timely repairs up north, Donna for her Rotary friend Tony buying her coffee and making coming home to the cold weather worthwhile,  Diana for being approved to dive again in Cozumel, Thoma for the break in snow storms and yours truly for the cost affective 50 cent valentine card and candy made by student council and sent by a secret admirer to my sweetheart at the middle school.

Fun & Frolics      Bill McLemore used Valentine’s Day and all of its worldly history to fine everyone today.  Bill brought down the House at the end with the cupid stupid answer!   As always the enjoyment Bill brings to the room was well worth the fine.
