JOKE OF THE WEEK

There were two people walking down the street. One was a musician. The other didn't have any money either.

AN EVENING WITH "THE LETTERMEN'






Wow! What a night we had last night going to see "The Lettermen" in concert. I know, a lot of you don't even know who they are, but Lindsay and I have fond memories of their music. It was about 38 years ago when Bob was trying to get enough nerve up to call Lindsay to go out on a date. He finally called her and she asked him if he wanted to come over and listen to some records. She said she had a lot of the Lettermen records and, well, the rest is history. This was the best concert we've ever been to in our lives. We got to meet them personally, and yes, shy little Lindsay actually got to go up on stage with them!

Lindsay said: Ginger, thanks for your nice comments. I'll have to check my busy schedule with the other three Lettermen to see when we will be able to go antiquing. And yes, I guess you can have my autograph when I get back from the next tour. Boy, did we have a ball!!
Love, Lindsay

Lindsay...you are way too funny "Grin" ..I will treasure your autograph forever! How about going antiquing this week if our busy schedules permit? You can wear sunglasses so your fans and the papparazzi don't recognize you! I'll take a stick to beat them away. Love you!

Bob & Linday, How awesome is that! I love the Lettermen. They had the best records. Lindsay, you look great. Is there anyway you two can come up with Ginger and John? That would be so great. The three of us could look for dolls, ha! Bob and John and Ken will love that. Where did you see them at. Were they in Phoenix? Love you both, Dottie

That is such a cool story how you asked Lindsay out. You two have been married for a long time and you don't hear that a lot now days. May you have many more blessed days together as husband and wife. Love you both...
