TODAY’S RIB-TICKLER:

This morning my kid said his ear hurt, and I said, “On the inside or outside?” so he walked out the front door, came back in & said “Both”.  Moments like this he got me wondering if I’m saving too much for college.

ATTENDANCE IS THE PRICE OF MEMBERSHIP

“WE SERVE”

The motto of LCI President Dr. Patti Hill “Changing the World”
