TUIT REPORT
John Knipp reported that this was the first time in 15 years that he had been given the TUIT. I wonder
how many others can claim that? He had Paul Brown, Steve Conard, Duke Wiggins, Scott Horton
and Rod Fry fined for not asking. John paid extra for not having it with him at a Chamber meeting
and at a meeting at Martindell, Swearer & Shaffer. John passed it on to Jim Kicklighter.
PROGRAM:
Well, Dr. Mike Hagley, a cardiologist with The Hutchinson Clinic was to tell us about preventing heart attacks. Unfortunately he didnt make it to our meeting but Bob Bush had all of us, who ate an unhealthy breakfast and didnt pass up the gravy, fined $1.00 in Mikes honor.

Jeff Frizell and Ward Davis for missing the board meeting. Vicki Fultz fined for not having a 2nd VP lined up for next year. Scott Horton was fined for being here which means he wasnt in Rome or Bangkok with his other Edward Jones Reps. Bob told Scott that he could have easily hidden in Jays suitcase and he wouldnt have even been noticed. Sharla Meisenheimer fined for being absent lately or was it because were not sure if youre with The Highlands or was it Grand Prairie or was it The Highlands, Im confused. Kent Harris turned the big 60 and we sang. Is there a time limit on paid announcements? Bob ended his routine with another new product announcement for Budweiser Select. Bob auctioned off the as yet unavailable in stores bottle to Jim Kicklighter for $9.00.Jim was hoping the other 5 would go with it for that price. Just a reminder that this is Bobs time and he does a great job raising funds for our club. Will there be other takers at that bid?
