What We
Were
The Eddies used to be a Book Club. All of
us are still avid readers, but we no longer meet to discuss books.
When we were a Book Club, we always (always) met in bars. And we
learned a few sea shanties. Then things got out of hand.
The book club is called the Sidney
Bidwell Literary Society, for reasons too complicated
to explain here. See FAQ.
According to some people, we also used to be younger, thinner, smarter
and more handsome.
Hard to believe, isn't it? |
