I just have to write this, you see I have met "Rambling Norman A. Cukras" and his wife Ruth on a number of occasions. They are both super nice people. Although I have to admit my sympathies go out to Ruth whenever Norm and I get together, as you see we both just love to talk and we have to see who can top who in the telling tales department. Norm has told me so many things he has learned at the check out counter, Which Ruth has to add, "Maybe he could get something done if he would stay out of the stores." Then I have to see if I can top Norman with a tell I have learned about life, such as I don't call snowbirds snowbirds. I call them frogs... the way I see it they come to Florida to croak.

Anyway the purpose behind this letter is to keep my word to Norm, you see on the last two occasions that I have been in his company he has said, "Hey Judee, you are always writing to the paper when are you going to write about me?" I told him I would see about getting that done, so I want him to see I am true to my word. Also to say to people out there reading this paper if you aren't reading Norman A. Cukras Saturday column about Ramblings you are missing out.
