Muscatine

Did anybody get to the CLAM meeting?   If so, what hgappened?

I went!  It was fun.  There were snacks.  Nothing fancy mind you, just chips, dip, soda, and cookies.  It was a nice turnout.  13 hearty Clam folks turned out.  Well, actually 12, since one brought her dog, Lola.  Nice dog.  Some kind of poodle-beagle mix.  Think they call 'em poogles.  Ol' Crazy Larry was there, but I think really he only showed for the Doritos and Pepsi.  I'm pretty sure Dave was there, although I can't be sure as I don't know what the guy looks like.  But it was a big fella, bib overalls, slightly unkempt hair, little bit of chaw running down his chin.  The scent was a bit overpowering.  They all got to passing around some kind of paper that we were supposed to sign, pledging lifetime loyalty to the clam gods, Larry, Moe and Curly.  I didn't have the required 5$, so was asked, in no polite terms, to hit the bricks.  Met up with Ned later at a local saloon and we started our own club....DAMN....Democrats are Mentally Negligent.  Ned voted himself President, which is  fine. 

Yeh, I went.  The only people coughing and hacking were those from Iowa City!  So darn noisy I couldn't hear what was said or decided.  I guess all of us will be given our marching orders soon anyway, so it didn't matter.  Someone brought some purloined grain alcohol along.  I don't have to tell you the result.

Oh, they do have a new anthem:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2xXmBQSs4M

You guys obviously weren't there and have no clue what it is all about.
