Spouses break the tie at lunch

The attendance score was even with a half dozen printers and half dozen editorial types for the monthly BJ Retirees lunch at Papa Joe’s in the Valley on Wednesday, June 14. But Watson Blanton and Ed Hanzel brought their spouses along to take the edge for a better than average turnout of 14.

There was surprisingly little conversation about the BJ sale, but a little about pun heads which JSK disliked like “Custard’s last stand” for a story about a closing custard stand.

The envelope you might have noticed in Harry Liggett’s hand contains copies of old Tower Topics contributed by Bob Pell as fodder for this blog.

Printers at the lunch were Watson Blanton and wife, Joe Catalano, Gene Daniels, Ed Hanzel and wife , Carl Nelson and Bob Pell. Editorial types were Art Cullison, Tim Hayes, Harry Liggett, Sandy Levenson, Tom Moore and Don Roese.

Any of those just mentioned not shown in photos no doubt had their eyes closed or were otherwise not paying attention when Tom Moore snapped the photos.
