The retained earnings is money that the coop didn't return to its members as dividend. Back when I joined, 10% was a target, not an absolute, and was occasionally higher.

Thank god for that.

Ummmm. Those pants *do* make your butt look big. Try vertical stripes.

Substitute "football" for "JROTC".

This will do it: The ringing rockistry of "Don't You Cry" (also written with Barnhill) could have come right out of the Counting Crows fakebook at their most Beatlesque and excessive.

tick, tick, tick, tick, ...

I choose not to not post.

Now this is a touchy subject.
