Unsung Heroes Award Ceremony
The
Unsung Hero today was Evelyn Read.
Evelyn has been a volunteer at the Perth
Zoo since 1982
when the volunteer organisation
was first established.
Her
primary role as a guide
or as she
is officially known as a Docent
is to talk
to the visitors but there are many
other
areas Evelyn has taken responsibility
for
these last 32 years.
They range from looking
after the animals mental
and physical
health, to collecting Termites as
animal
food, to fund raising,
to maintaining
the Zoo archives,
to keeping all
the other 30 odd guides happy
and content
with their roles.
The
Mill Point Rotary Selection Committee
was unanimous in their decision
to award the
2014 Unsung Hero Award to Evelyn Read

Spot the odd one out!!
Lets go for a ride!!
An
American astronaut has an emergency during his re-entry
into earth's atmosphere
and his space craft
crash-lands in the Australian bush,
way out in the middle
of nowhere.
After what seems like an eternity,
he wakes up in a bush clinic,
very rustic, dirty,
with foul smells and he is bandaged from head to foot.
He
sees a very large, somewhat gruff looking nurse
approaching him as he lies in
his cot.
"Did I come here to die?" he says
with a deep sense of
resignation and fear.
"No," the Aussie nurse replies,
"You came
here yesterday."
Very Clever Ad
A planeload of Pepsi flying over Africa had a malfunction and
went down.
A few weeks later, the Pepsi Company sent a rescue
plane.
They searched the area and found a tribe of cannibals.
They
walked up to the Chief of the tribe
and asked him if he knew anything about the
crash.
The Chief said, "You betcha!"
When asked where the crew was, the Chief replied,
"We ate the crew, and we drank the Pepsi."
The Rescue crew were
shocked.
One man asked, "Did you eat their legs?"
The chief replied,
"We ate their legs, and we
drank the Pepsi."
Another rescuer asked,
"Did you eat their
arms?"
The Chief replied,
"We ate their arms, and we
drank the Pepsi."
After looking totally perplexed for a minute, a third
asked,
"Did you... you know... eat, their... their 'things?'"
The Chief says, "No."
"No?" asked the rescuer.
"No," replied the Chief.
"THINGS
go better with Coke."
