YOGILATES CLASSES BEGINS SEPT 29 - OCT 27

I'm just a plain "old" emailer sending out various notices and flyers. At first I thought this was a new drink from Dunkin' Donuts. Then I said, "Ron, maybe YOGI Berra made a new drink called a YOGI LATTE". I was wrong again! So click on the following link to see what YOGILATE is all about.

MORE SONGS FROM THE EXCELLENTS

As I mentioned there is a Bronxite who is providing me some oldies (since he is an "oldie") of some songs sung by the Excellents who, by the way, were Bronx guys who decided to move and live in BROOKLYN. We accepted them with open arms! So here are a few of their songs. They will also be found on my blog in the MUSIC JUKEBOX section along with hundreds of other oldies BUT GOODIES.

GLORIA(a different way it was sung)http://www.regencycommunity.zoomshare.com/files/01_Gloria.mp3

REGENCY MEN'S GOLF AT THE MEADOWS ON WEDNESDAY'S

In my last email I forgot to mention two things that happened on this past Wednesday's golf at the Meadows.

First, this was the first time Marv Schwartz played gold with the "big hitters" at Regency. Marv was not afraid at all! He knew he could "smash" a ball as good as anyone else. So Marv tee'd his ball up and gave it a HUGE swing and he actually caused the ball to BURST in mid air with powder from the ball flying all over the place. His foursome, which included Marty Kornfeld couldn't stop laughing. The word I got is that Marty fell to the ground and couldn't stop laughing. Marv's comment was a classic. He said, "THEY CERTAINLY DON'T MAKE GOLF BALLS GOOD ANYMORE!" His comment made Marty kick his feet, while on the ground and laugh so hard that he was wiggling like a worm.
They finally told Marv that Marty inaugurates all knew golfers with his EXPLODING GOLF BALL. Yes, I was a victim of this many years ago by Marty. What Marty doesn't know is that I exchanged his exploding golf ball with a regular golf ball and I exploded it with my MIGHTY swing.

The second thing that happened at the Meadows was within my foursome. Bob Isaacs, Stan Cramer and I couldn't believe the cap that Les was wearing. We selected Bob to ride with Les because he had less seniority then Stan or I. Bob, I would have walked the course rather then being in the same cart with Les and his new cap. I even took a picture to prove that this was what Les was wearing. He volunteers at CentraState in the Radiology Department so this cap came from them, but Les made some changes to it. Check out this picture. I think we should do a full body scan on Les after seeing his new cap.

DIRECT TV SUBSCRIBERS - A MESSAGE FROM A REGENCY RESIDENT

Just a note that you will probably want to pass along to all Directv subscribers in Regency. I’ve just gotten off the phone after a 2 hour phone call with the Directv “service” folks. As you know, Directv has recently launched into orbit new satellites for greatly expanded HD coverage. What they have failed to mention in their wave of publicity is that all current subscribers, even those who currently have HDTV, will have to buy all new equipment to access these new channels when they become available next month. And furthermore, they knew that when they sold me the equipment that I have now. As one who invested in all new Directv equipment not long ago (a high def dish and two HDTV DVRs), you can probably guess that I’m not a happy camper, and others in the community might not be so happy as well.

CALLING ALL OLD-CAR BUFFS

Regency Auto Enthusiasts Club
Tues., Sept. 11th at 8 PM

A MESSAGE FROM A REGENCY RESIDENT
The Bizarre Case of the Disappearing Noodles

WANTED: P.D.James, Harlan Coben, Stephen King or the Captors of the Hat Bandit
Noodles have various uses. They can be eaten, used as a term for heads – or for elongated plastic tubes used for exercising in water. They are an integral part of our heavily subscribed Aquacise classes, and by individual pool exercisers. Well – they are disappearing!!!

They are particularly inedible, and certainly do not have any reasoning ability, so someone or some people have absconded with them for other uses…A few favorite blue ones have been cut up and strung on red plastic cords. There are no fingerprints as yet – but we desperate exercisers are hoping that some clever Regency sleuth can solve this recurring dilemma. They can be bought very cheaply at dollar stores or at the Christmas Tree Shops – so why is this happening? Is this a necessary HOA expense? Will our carrying charges be going up because of it? Do we have a secret philanthropist who will endow the pool with replacements (or will the unknown culprits)?
Signed,
Desperate Water Exercisers
(EMAILER'S NOTE: MOST LIKELY THIS IS HAPPENING FROM SOMEONE WHO PROBABLY LOST THEIR NOODLE!)

THAT'S IT FOR NOW
RON
