An older couple is lying in bed one morning.
They had just awakened from a good night's sleep. He takes her hand and she responds "Don't touch me."
"Why not?" he asked. She answered, "Because I'm dead.
The husband asked..."What are you talking about? We're both lying here in bed together and talking to
one another!"
She said, "No, I'm definitely dead."
He insisted, "You are not dead. What in the world makes you think you're dead?"
"Because I woke up this morning and nothing hurts."
Remember...Once you get over the hill, you'll begin to pick up speed

Happy New Year……..I’m seeking a member who may be interested in assisting me putting this
newsletter together every other month. Anyone interested must have a working knowledge of MS Pub-
lisher and minimal typing skills. Please contact me if interested.
Our Council has been operating under the original set of by-laws incorporated in 1982. Needless to say
many changes have taken place since our incorporation. SK Beardslee and me have been chosen by the
GK to review these by-laws and bring them forward for the membership to review and approve. An edited
copy will be presented to the officers at their February meeting and a vote of the membership will be
taken at the March meeting. The by-laws consists of 5 sheets and is to large to include with this newsletter
however a copy can be received from those members requesting same via email for those with internet
access or I will U.S. mail a hard copy.
We also have a new email address for the newsletter which is fountaineditor@aol.com this email ad-
dress will allow us to send out the newsletter with no restrictions on the number of recipients that
the previous yahoo account had.

Recently heard on a telephone answering machine: • My wife and I had words, But I didn't get to use mine
"I am not available right now, but Thank you for caring • Frustration is trying to find your glasses without your
enough to call. glasses.
I am making some changes in my life.
Please leave a message after the Beep. • God made man before woman so as to give him time
to think of an answer for her first question.
If I do not return your call, You are one of the changes."
• I was always taught to respect my elders, but it keeps
getting harder to find one.
