Message: OH YOUR THOSE HOODS! My great grandmother still talks about that night you folks came through their farm. So we probably are related Cuz. So we had a Q huh Branigan? Well as soon as we all get your address we'll have another one!!! I got the TP! Trying o rip on the Prince. Robin you should hang your head in shame like a dog. Here Prince Here Prince. I really do hate to encourage you Robin, but I really wish I was as funny as you. OK I forgive you guys for wolfing on the Sloeman. All this time I USED to brag about knowing Robin Hood. Tambourino and I used to make sucker bets when we were younger that we knew Robin Hood, so at three a.m. we would call your house Robin, and ask for Robin Hood. Tambo's idea Robin, the first time. Anyway SORRY I missed the party.

Hey Jim, Someone at the BBQ this weekend told this story about Robin,
It seemed that when Robin was going to El Camino, he signed up for an archery class. One day they were out on the range and one of Robin's arrows ricocheted off the target, sending it in the direction of the parking lot and right through someone's convertible top. Well being the good Cougar that he was, he left a note stating that he had done the deed and that he was sorry and all, and would take care of the damages, and of course signed it Robin Hood
I would have loved to have seen the guys face when he read the note. Thanks Jim, and if you really want to "Charminize" Sharon's place, I have the address.

We did a little summer shindig of our own. And what fun it is to have the guy in your own front room! (BTW, he can be bought for a pitcher of margaritas! YOU TOO can experience the magic of the monarchy.) So while the rest of you were starving for some CT action, we were making a few memories of our own. What a blast. We even got around to TP'ing a house.....
The only drawback was having to sleep with Sue and Darryl's cat, "Stu"...... what an ANIMAL!!! Thanks Stu, for getting me up at 4:30am to play. OH... and you better make that 2 pitchers of margaritas. Thank you Sue and all the rest for the fun fun BBQ Wars weekend.

Al, it was great to see you at the 10 yr. reunion and i'm certainly looking forward to hearing some of your tales from the "old days". I say old, because there are alot of kids on this link to the past. But back to Royal. You signed my SR annual BABY JESUS! I never said where we got the name from.

It looks like it's been the incredible Royal Lord feedback machine the last few days.

Must be a pretty cool guy, too - just look at how the feedback lines have been filled with his name lately.
I don't think I can come up with a slogan that would be any better than Joyce Chance's - "Let friendships begun, stay true to the end. Cougartown.com."
