To the Bulletin Editor

Could you please let people know “I am still alive”. Back is not so good given the 10 to 14 hr days but and I am still standing……..just. My Project is nearly over (1 week to go and yes I am counting) and I hope to be back at Rotary 1 August. I await my “big” fine with pleasure!!!

News of Exchange Student Ai Seike (now Ai Tanaka)

Ai was an exchange student to this club in the early 1990s. On her return to Japan she completed her tertiary studies and worked for a number of years as a newspaper journalist.

About 5 year ago she married Kilma Tanaka, who works in his father’s property investment company. On the 11th June their first child, a daughter, who they have named Mai, was born.

Roger and Roslyn Wilson spent a day with Ai when they visited Japan in May, some pictures taken then and of the baby are below.

"When I read about the evils of drinking,

I gave up reading." ~ Henny Youngman

One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining the Buffalo Theory to his buddy Norm. Here's how it went:
"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."
