SNAPDRAGON’S JOKE
A dinner speaker was in such a hurry to get to his engagement that when he arrived and sat down at the
head table, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten his false teeth. Turning to the man next to him he said, "I
forgot my teeth." The man said, "No problem." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of false
teeth. "Try these," he said. The speaker tried them. "Too loose," he said. The man then said, "I have another pair - try these." The speaker tried them and responded, "Too
tight." The man was not taken back at all. He then said, "I have one more pair. Try them." The speaker said, "They
fit perfectly. "With that he ate his meal and gave his speech. After the dinner meeting was over, the speaker
went over to thank the man who had helped him. "I want to thank you coming to my aid. Where is your office?
I've been looking for a good dentist." The man replied, "I'm not a dentist. I'm an undertaker."

OMEO SHOW 2017
THANKS
Well…The best annual Show of the whole region was a great success
again this year. There was a little bit of nearly everything important to
the Region….not too much of anything and a few surprises.
It would not have happened without the support of generous
sponsors both local and from afar. Our grateful and sincere thanks
to them. Please support them whenever you can.
Of course the Show was planned and organised by a small band of
very dedicated volunteers during the year and many others
in the set up and on the day.
Key people of course, are the hundreds of participants in
events who provide the spectacle.
For those of you who just came along and got your wrist band at the
gate to get in and see what was going on, you deserve some thanks too.
Great job Omeo & Region! Thank you all!
