Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
Our humorous speech contest started off with a rap’s inspirational lines (rapped to the tune of ….. rap)
- Everybody lookin' at you crazy (crazy!)
What you gonna do? (what you gonna do?)
Lift up your head and keep moving (keep moving)
Or let the paranoia haunt you (haunt you)?…An attempted break-in at a Denny’s in his youth took TM Jeff, instead, to the Boulevard of Broken Rapper Dreams… He made the local paper’s front lines as the fastest runner East of the Metacomet Range. He Won Second Place.
- TM Aleta fondly reminisced about her Relay for Recovery, where she piggy-backed her little friend Courtney across 3 football fields while dragging a Flintstone-style homemade cardboard box on wheels. Aleta has singlehandedly supported her chiropractor for decades now. He’s been spotted lighting candles for Relay for Recovery.
- TM Joe hilariously told us about one of his wacky Sicilian family’s vacation to Canada with huge watermelons flying inside the car every time his aggressive driver father hit the brakes, Uncle Enrico the exhibitionist traumatizing the kids, his father dumping a banana peel and the car keys into the dark woods. Joe sold the movie rights to National Lampoon Goes On A Gitto Vacation and the rest is ….literally…. history. He Won First Prize.
- TM Carmine introduced us to Senator Big Jim Foghorn, an independent thinking Californian with a Southern drawl, who taught us valuable lessons about money, greed and taking bribes from every side. In other words, your average politician.
- TM Pam is a self-described somewhat woke person, who has discovered that Pinot Grigio couples very nicely with Cheetos while lying on the couch. It’s also known as seal repair (pothead) while eating a kiwi fruit and learning native New Zealand language. “A person walks into a bar, another person walks into a bar, a third person ducked.” Get with the joke telling, unwoke people! She won Third Prize.
- We received the visit of several members of a Toastmasters Club in Southern India. Virtual technology has removed barriers of distance and time.
