Yours Truly, Monica Castillo Executive Director Very serious in my 30 s to 40 or there about. Got a little looser, no not that loose, somewhere around 50 years old. Like to think I got a little smarter and more balanced in my life style and decisions. You may think you know me, but guess again. First person to guess correctly will receive 2 complimentary Brunch tickets. Robert Leeper Arline Murrel Sandy Rubin

History of Bingo... The game s history can be traced back to 1530, to an Italian lottery game called Lo Giuoco del Lotto D Italia, which is still played every Saturday in Italy. From Italy the game was introduced to France in the late 1770s, where it was called Le Lotto, a game played among wealthy Frenchman. The Germans also played a version of the game in the 1800s, but they used it as a child s game to help students learn math, spelling and history. When the game reached North America in 1929, it became known as beano. It was a country fair game played near Atlanta, Georgia where a dealer would select numbered discs from a cigar box and players would mark their cards with beans. They yelled beano if they won. A New York salesman named Edwin Lowe renamed it bingo after he overheard someone accidentally yell bingo. He hired a Columbia University professor, Carl Leffler, to help him increase the number of combinations in bingo cards. By 1930, Leffler had invented 6,000 different bingo cards. It is said that he then went insane. We can all understand that. Juanita Vargas, Dining Services Juanita has become a culinary carving artist.

Vintage is so very happy you joined our team 12 years ago Juanita. You are appreciated and loved by all. Thank you for all you do. céxàëá VÉÜÇxÜAAA TT Stars, by A. Joyce Kilmer Bright stars, yellow stars, flashing through the air, Are you errant strands of Lady Mary s hair? As she slits the cloudy veil and bends down through, Do you fall across her cheeks and over heaven too? Gay stars, little eyes, you are little eyes, Eyes of baby angels playing in the skies. Now and then a winged child turns his merry face Down toward the spinning world what a funny place! John Barry 8/4 Richard Morris 8/5 Margo Down 8/6 Bill Swayer 8/16 Daniel Lastra 8/16 Bella Palmer 8/19 Jesus Christ came from the Cross (Christ receive my soul) In each perfect hand and foot there was a bloody hole. Four great iron spikes there were, red and never dry, Michael plucked them from the Cross and set them in the sky. Christ s troop, Mary s guard, God s own men, Draw your swords and strike at hell and strike again. Every steel-born spark that flies where God s battles are, Flashes past the face of God, and is a star. Requested by Jim Gaughan, Resident Watch for resident or staff poem next month.
