Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
TM Marie introduced PLAY-related topics. We soon found out that…
- TM Beckyjo taught hundreds of long-haired, impetuous teenagers (erroneously known as humans) the intricacies of child play, aka Roasting S’Mores At The Firepit. She Won Best Table Topics Award.
- TM Jeff’s attention span has diminished with the advent of cable tv while sadly concluding that baseball is America’s national pastime for not too much longer.
- TM Lois has discovered that as a young older person she can get away with anything and has chosen “Lighten Up” as her motto in life.
- TM Chris recently watched legendary movie Thulma & Eloisa, riddled with innocent women’s play misinterpreted as foul play. Personally, I just remember yummy Brood Pity.
- In an unprecedented feat, TM Carmine managed to recap Play It Again, Mam, from the 1972 movie by Broody Alien – a spinoff of the original Casanegra.
- TM Bastien has several playlists for bbqs and workouts, but the soundtrack of Freezing is forever indelibly etched in his mental Spoofy Fi.
And then came the prepared speeches….
- TM Pam, a self-described conservative flaming liberal, is torn between getting a low-class mutt or one of these trendy pedigreed genetically-altered snobs for gullible Gen X-ers…
Goldendoodle (Golden Retriever + Poodle) ...Labradoodle (Labrador Retriever + Poodle) ...Puggle (Pug + Beagle) ...Cockapoo (Cocker Spaniel + Poodle)… Schnoodle (Poodle + Schnauzer) ...Goldador (Golden Retriever + Labrador Retriever) ...Yorkipoo (Yorkshire Terrier + Poodle). Fannie the Cat has the last MEEAAOOW. She Won Best Speaker Award.
- DTM Kip, soon to join our roster ranks as perennial vacationer, regaled us with a clear-as-mud visual of the contorted paths most of us have impetuously chosen in our (public speaking) lives. Time to cough up another $20 and make a path detour!
As far as evaluations….
- DTM Mary Helen lauded TM Pam’s legendary position in the upper intelligence echelons of our Club, exemplified by audible sighs of exasperation, consternation and resignation.
- Impressed by DTM Kip’s speech, TM Tom suggested that EarlyBirds virtually move to Lake Woe Be Gone, whose motto is "Sumus Quot Sumus" ("We are what we are"). He Won Best Evaluator Award.
The Word of the Day was
IMPETUOUS, adj.
Characterized by undue haste and lack of thought and deliberation
Example: Impetuous spending is a favorite hobby of the multitudes.
Next week is our Humorous Speech Contest! Let’s make it HA-LA-RIOUS.
