Hi Fellow Ring 211ers: Congrats again to MagicBob and SuZie- The July/August 2010 issue of "The Voice of FCM" is now out and in the mail all over the globe. With an FCM membership, it can be viewed online at _www.fcm.org_ (http://www.fcm.org) in the membership only area. Our Prez with SuZie is on the cover, and the article is on pages 6-10. On page 28, per June's great idea, is a special published display ad with "Congratulations and Thank You" there to MagicBob and SuZie for their many wonderful years of service from the Grand Rapids, Michigan, I.B.M. Ring 211 The June Horowitz/John deVries Magic Club. I'll bring a copy to our next meeting, I was super happy to finally see it today. There is also an article on pages 12-14 of the same issue by Rick Lenski of 28404 Hales Street, Madison Heights, Michigan 48701 (_rickfcm@xxxxxxxxxxxx (mailto:rickfcm@xxxxxxxxxxx) ) about doing magic in hospitals- nice! I am not sure exactly where Madison Heights is but we may want to add Rick to the Ring 211 email list if he is not on there already. There is also a mention on page 30 of the same issue about Michigan magician/balloonist? Scott Smith, Jr. who just got back from a magic missions trip in Honduras with WGO. _thinaircreations@xxxxxxxxxx (mailto:thinaircreations@xxxxxxxxx) From John Jefferson: As they say in the U.P.: If it's tourist season- why can't we shoot them?

Campbell's has new large print alpabet soup for the older generation... A joyful heart is good medicine ... Proverbs 17:22 Have a great weekend all. Us Dutchmen (or those from Dutch origins) are slightly upset after losing to Spain earlier today in the world cup... Did you know that if you wear wooden shoes you can walk on water? Hope to see you at Abbott's! bus
