Recreio Team At The Top At the time of publication of this newsletter, one of the ladies' teams is at the top of their division, and two other teams are knocking on the door. Recreio "B" led the Ladies' 2nd division on goal difference at the end of November after winning four and drawing two of their eight games. In doing so, they scored 20 goals while conceding nine. Meanwhile, the Old and the Bold of the Men's "C" team were in second place in Division 4 with two games in hand over leaders Skyers. At the same time, the university players that make up the Men's "D" team under the guidance of Robert Chung are enjoying their league debut by remaining unbeaten after two months of play and were second in Division 5. Amongst the goal scorers, Zoe Tam knocked in six past Shaheen as the Ladies' "D" went on to win 7-0. That puts her in a tie for second place with another newcomer, Siu Kin Wai, and veteran Lo Wen Chee. Top of the charts is Andy Kan, who scored in every match during the first two months to bring his tally to eight in six games. Click on the "Tables" link below to see where the eight teams stand. Jokes Law of the Bath: When the body is fully immersed in water, the telephone rings. More silly laws courtesy of my brother Gerry in our "Jokes" section this month. What does SAD Look Like? My niece Liz sent us a set of pics that are too cute, or too dumb, not to share. Click on "Sad" below for a chuckle. Saint Jerome Saint Jerome is known as one of the Four Fathers of the Church. There is a story that tells of Saint Jerome meeting the Christ Child in a dream. Click on "Jerome" below to read more. Christmas Presents Last year, my sister Trish sent us an email about an alternative to gift-swapping at Christmas. Instead of buying something for someone who might not appreciate it, why not spend your money on someone who really needs it? I found the story most interesting and decided to share it here. Click on "Swap" to read more. T-shirt Imprints My other sister, D'Ann, sent us a bunch of modern-day T-shirt imprints. They're quite small images so I put them all on one page which might take a few seconds to load. What Do Teachers Make? Keeping it in the family, my brother Dado sent us a story about a teacher's response when asked what she makes. "Merry Christmas". There, I said it. One more from my sister Trish. Whether you're a Democrat or a Republican, this one's for you.
