Ms...Alain...eous From the EDITOR Happy May y’all!!! We are busy busy everywhere, so let me get right to it! I am going to start out with my favorite thing: Wildly inappropriate language and behavior. Here at the Beachcomber we all cuss like sailors and have dissolute lifestyles that some people may find slightly offensive. We can’t help it; that’s why we all came together and have such a great magazine! Y’all should know this by now! So on that note, I have to tell you that Margie and I just spent the last 45 minutes laughing hysterically over 174 ways to call a penis something other than what it is for the Bartender Chronicles on page 24. We do try to be proper and we Google it to make sure we are. Hey, this is a tough job and we get our chuckles in where we can! Moving on … I am delighted to announce our Easter Egg Hunt winner is Angela Caldwell!!! Angela you can thank Rudy Rudon for picking your number during the blind draw! You are going to Bernie’s for some Stuffed Fried Shrimp. Oh, that’s me. You are going to Bernie’s for whatever you want, but think of me and Rudy when you go. I do want to give a special shout out to Zoe Robinson who plotted that Easter Egg Hunt Key like a General during battle. I was deeply impressed with your attention to detail. I am not even kidding. You should work for Google Maps. On a more somber note, I would be remiss if I did not mention the loss of one of our own Tybee Police Officers, Tron Lewis. I did not know him, but many, many people have shared their stories and I would refer you to Officer Dascall’s Behind the Tape story for a glimpse of the man that we have lost. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. The Traveling Beachcomber has reached epic proportions! I had to LOL at this one! Steve & Bethany Kellam have finally taken us to Africa!! The LOL part is that the Kellam’s have won a gift certificate from A-J’s, where Bethany works! Love that!! We are now three continents shy of conquering the planet! We still need Asia, Australia and Antarctica to be complete! Get to work people!! Oh, I totally forgot to mention the Beach Bum Parade!! Best parade EVER and 31 years later! Be sure to read the feature story and get the scoop on the Big Kahuna, Grand Marshall and The Queen! I am going to steal a line from my boyfriend, Henry Schroder, “It’s all about the love.” (Don’t tell Kim.) TYBEE BEACHCOMBER | MAY 2017 3
