December's Brimmer

December’s Brimmer

November was another busy month in and around Binlids,
first of all congratulations to everyone that got elected to the Executive Board for the next 2 years and hope to see everyone at the election for President on December 9th.

The “Comedy Night” on Thurs. Nov. 13th was a blast in front of a sold out room, good job by Tommy Wenger, our illustrious Steward who put it all together, our very own, Tommy Healey was his normal, abnormal self, Nicky Attytude, a former classmate of Pat Dever, was hilarious, but Joe Conklin stole the show, he did a solid hour of his comedy and impressions, the “man of a thousand voices” was very entertaining, great job by all! A brief infomercial shall follow, Joe Conklin did us a favor by appearing, I think a nice gesture would be for us to go to
www.2funnyphillyguys.com and order the DVD featuring Joe and Big Daddy Graham, a great Christmas gift, but not for me, I already ordered it.




A group of us went to Baltimore on Nov. 15th for the ND vs. Navy football game, Billy Gibbons was in rare form, enough said about that, but Obie, Mo and Harvey’s stepson, Matty E. was in his glory at the Green Turtle, a watering hole in Fell’s Point, our bellies were full and we all got a new tee shirt to wear, thanks to Matty’s visa, not the one that got him to Fell’s, but the credit card, oh, Matty E., you’ve done it again! We went over to Notre Dame Harvey’s tail gate party in Lot J, ran into a lot of old friends, Harvey gave Billy G., the “T” and ejected him from the party. Harvey will be the referee at the North Catholic vs. Bonner basketball game at North on Fri. Dec. 19th, Kieran is getting a bus together to go cheer on the ref, not since Tim Donaghy has a ref had a cheering section, give Kieran a call if you are interested. Speaking of the trip to Baltimore, Freddy Mac became a Big Brother and took his little brother, Tigger with him, unfortunately there are no Tigger stories, Fred, you must have done a great job, I am sure that Tigger’s Mom appreciates that fine work.





Time for another commercial, on Sunday, Jan. 18th, our Annual Beef and Beer at Finnigan’s Wake, 3P – 7P, starring again our very own “Paddy’s Well” featuring Paul Moore, last year, we had over 300 people there, we are looking to improve on that number, if you were there, the last 2 years, you know how good it was, pass the word, the cost will be $30. in advance and $35. at the door, I have tickets, if you want to be a seller, give me a call, they will make great Christmas gifts. I spoke with Jimmy at Finnigan’s and he assured me that both bars will be open and his great staff will ready to serve us.

That’s All Folk…………………………..

Merry Christmas to All and to All, a Good Night!
