Mjne was supposed to be last night but the leadership decided that they needed to cancel it because there was a "threat" of ice. too bad they didn't tell all; of us. Six of us sat there for about an hour before the Library that it is held in finally told us that the meeting was cancelled.I guess thats what hapopens when you are middle aged and still 20 plus years younger
than the next member.

Have fun tonight Phil. Had ours last night, a little slow and quite. Not much up on auction either, must be most still recovering from the holidays.

I don't get to 'do' stamp meetings so I'll have to entertain myself with the FL-OK football game.

Aha, there was some talk of getting home to watch the game,but since the Jets blew it..i am not too interested..we did well..12 members showed up..we have some good guys if they have "stuff" that they do not collect they bring it in and sell to the members for around 20 percent of catalog, we always have a good time when we get together...

Phil...when is your next auction ?

Bob, I heard someone say see you on the 22nd..its the 4th Thursday in January..think about the big Covermania in Albany in February..they call it Covermania...but they have one room full of postcard dealers and there are always squatter stamp dealers as well..if you come to Red Hook you get a ride the rest of the way..3 of us planning to go..one for one more !!

Remind me on the Albany..I just may take you up on it

Phil:

Thursday night was our first OPS meeting of 2009. I chaired the meeting (as I am the V-P) and the Chairman of the U.S. Study Group. January is U.S. Month at the OPS, so me and the U.S. Study Group members are running the meetings for the month.

Next week we have Tom Hare speaking about grading U.S, stamps. The following week, Dick Logan does his lecture on the Columbians.

Everyone enjoyed the meeting. We had 38 members, present.

David are the 39 attentive during the lectures or do they go own with their swapping ????

All but two were attentive, and there was audience participation.
