Special Announcement: We are moving
After celebrating week after week for 10 years, PISD is asking us to move over to Sigler on Janwood. Apparently it is quite expensive to A/C the large cafetorium at Vines. Sigler will be more economical. September 6 we begin our new adventure.

True?
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely
in a pretty and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming,
—WOW— What a Ride !
Sandra and Nina.
See you this Sunday.
