BRAGS

Frank Ortiz: bragged $100 on his wife's ride on the Rotary International float in the Rose Parade (see last week's bulletin). It was a fantastic experience and Scottie enjoyed it very much.
Dan Blough: Dan bragged on the Cioppino Dinner that he and Peggy put on recently. He also bragged on Mike Gibson finally beating him (twice in fact) in Words With Friends. That was worth....$10.00.
Mike Gibson: bragged on attending the Cioppino Dinner and of course the sweet taste of victory in beating Dan....$20.00
Tim Seifert: Tim and his family recently flung themselves out of a plane and experienced parachuting for the very first time. It was was an exhilarating experience and he recommends it to everyone to at least try it once. $50.00
Jean-luc Garon: Jean-luc bragged on his son's 15th birthday and attending the Bloughs dinner. $50.00
Peter Sterling: Peter is going to be a Grandpa!! His daughter Rachel recently announced that she was pregnant with the Sterling's first grand child...$25.

Ted Ortega: Ted's wife Beth, recently had a birthday that involved golf and other activities in Pebble Beach. It must have been a great time because that was worth $100.00.

Eddie Stanfield: Recently spent his birthday in Zion National Park. That experience was so good, it made him feel half his age. $31.00
Mike Gibson (yes,again!): Mike previously forgot to mention Jimmy V's recent dinner, his new office location and a birthday, so he added $30.00 to his earlier brag.
