– It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste.

– Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.

– When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.

– Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason so few engage in it.

– Vision without execution is just hallucination.

– The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.

– Don’t find fault, find a remedy, anyone can complain.

A wise old Calgary Model A’er saw the financial burden of Christmas, eating into his plans for purchasing certain Model A parts, he had been longing for on “ebay”, so he called his son in Vancouver. He said…..you know this constant nagging by your mother about my ModelAextravagance, has led to what I have always feared, a split in our marriage after 45 years. But dad!! The son pleaded, can’t this be worked out? No my son he said, it is over, no discussion.

The old ModelA’er then called his daughter in Ottawa and explained the same situation, ending the conversation as before with, “there was nothing further that could be done.”

Shortly thereafter the daughter called back in a panic and said that immediately she and her brother were coming to Calgary to deal with this situation.

The wise old Model A’er turned to his wife after the call and said, “The kids are coming home for Christmas and paying their own way!”

Isn’t that wonderful! His wife said, and gave him her usual big hug and kiss.

A Very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year To All

From A Friend in Ottawa

Once again we are pleased to report that everyone appeared to have enjoyed themselves, that attendance increased moderately from the previous year to a total of 115 (30 of whom took advantage of the opportunity to visit Santa), and, that for the third year in a row the function was self-funding.

Part of the success of the function was attributable to the fine array of door prizes and food offered and in that respect we'd be remiss if we didn't acknowledge the generosity of the individuals who contributed the following items.

Chocolates by the Callander Families -- Chocolates byAl Chase -- three sets of software CD's by Troy and Carolyn Dillabough -- a set of 3 framed pictures by Louise Fentiman -- a porcelain Christmas doll by Sheila &Al Friesen -- a Christmas turkey by Al & Sheila Friesen -- a Spruce Meadows book and tickets set by Rich Hardman -- a casual jacket by Rich Hardman -- a Club / 2003 Meet logo cushion by Ron & Irene Rigby -- a car blanket by Irene Rigby -- a Model A model kit by Helen & Warren Robinson -- a lug wrench by Keith Robinson -- a Hemmings ModelAcalendar by Jim Rouse &Al Friesen -- a rhodenite clock by Bob & Jane Smith -- and, a lovely blue tin of cookies donated by an anonymous contributor!

More difficult to single out, were the multitude of participants who contributed both food and effort - - in order to make the event a success. Besides Louise Fentiman and Irene Rigby who were the primary organizers of the event a hearty thank you goes out - - to everyone who helped Shirley Watt, Louise, and Irene with the food/kitchen activities; to Gord Watt and his team who both organized the bar and poured the drinks; to Laurie Draper for making sure not a cent was lost on the gate receipts; to Yvon Picot (and Anne Marie) who did honor to his red suited heritage; to Grant Alger and Al Friesen who were instrumental in getting the tables and chairs set up in time; to the multitude who not only loaned things but stayed to put the tables and chairs away, to haul the garbage, and to sweep the floor; plus - - \"To each and every one of the participants whose spirit of comradeship contributed to the success of the event\"!

May they all enjoy good health, success, and a great series of ModelA activities in 2003!
