Tweets from the chairman
Bobby tweets:
Well, this is the big week. Hope you've got your ducks in a row.
Stan tweets:
What's that supposed to mean, you're the one relaxing on the lake with the big pontoon. Hope the weather isn't crappy on Friday. I suppose there's no Plan B, is there?
Bobby tweets:
Now don't get cranky, old man. Sure sounds like somebody could use a nap.
Stan tweets:
Sorry, must be nerves. This Reunion Diet is starting to get to me.
Bobby tweets:
So how many are coming to the reunion?
Well, they put us in a room for 75 to 80 and we've got 75.
Bobby tweets:
I like that. Much cozier, friendlier, easier to socialize.
Stan tweets:
Yes, that's true. Hopefully folks from other classes will just show up spontaneously as well. It's a public house and it would be great if some casual visitors would stop by to chat it up with us when they hear we're in town. We'll have to take over a big part of the lounge as well as our private dining room. Should make for a nice relaxed atmosphere. You could even bowl a couple of lines if you wanted to.
Bobby tweets: Wow, that would be great. Am I saying Grace?
Stan tweets:
You're the chairman. You could always delegate that, you know. But it would be nice if you would at least bang on a glass and welcome everybody. Last time we planned a program with music, etc., but gave it up because people just wanted to visit and talked right over the tuning fork . . . which is the sign of a successful get-together. So don't worry that you haven't planned a program or anything or that there is no entertainment. BTW, I got a call from Marlys Mrnak and from Ruth Helie Anderson. Looks like they'll be here too.
Bobby tweets:
Great. You told everybody that it is casual dress, didn't you? No ties, no gowns, comfortable shoes. It is summer casual.
Stan tweets:
Yes. But I could say it again. Are you wearing shorts and a tee shirt?
Bobby tweets:
Why, did you want to coordinate with me?
Stan tweets:
No. Just asking. I did get one request. That the nametags be in really big print. Karen has provided us with a list of the 75 names of people attending. We'll just sit down with markers at about 4 p.m. and print the first names HUGE for the folks who SHOULD be wearing glasses, but aren't. Kaleen called and said she's got an eight page Class Directory ready to go. Too bad we don't have all the addresses in it, but we just didn't get the help we were hoping to get finding all the names. We been asking for that for six months. Maybe we'll get 'em all in by 2015.
Bobby tweets:
Well, we tried. We should sell the partial class directory lists for fifty cents to cover the cost of printing and assembly. Wonder how many we should print?
Stan tweets:
I am sure 50 would be enough. What's the weather like on Lake Darling?
Bobby Tweets:
Perfect. Pass me a beer, Betty dear.
