Dear Members, Guests and Friends:
For starters, TM Paolo officially named us The Meeting of Meetings and The Peak Of The Week. Your choice.
TM Carmine led us to explore opposite table topics. We learned that….
- TM Scott censored his first thoughts about shrinking and enlarging items at this early hour and instead referred to shrinking brains and enlarging joie de vivre….
- TM Paolo froze as he had his foot already on the gondola but he cannot turn down a table topic request about being frozen and thawed.
- I, Ana, talked about the true vs the false self, which consists of dying my hair this color and that color – now I save lots of money by being authentically gray.
- DTM Kip said that being a double dipper is like being a gunfighter at the EarlyBird Corral and avoiding ricochets at all costs.
- TM Tom has come from Alabama with a banjo on his knee and focuses on the joy while fretting the banjo. We are looking forward to a live Zoom performance!
- TM Randolph reflected that stagnation is the beginning of decomposition – and that’s a dangerous non-movement thing!
- Guest Val said giving and receiving are spiritually the same – the intent to give joy creates joy within you in a wonderful synergy. She Won Best Table Topics Award.
We enjoyed two excellent speeches today…
- TM Scott inspired us to book our flights to Reykyavik to see the fiords, lava boulders, stark and stunning fog and guardrail-less driving straight to the Language School to learn to say eyjafjallajokull (E 15 for short) in our quest for Iceland’s 269 yuhkitls. Easy as Eskimo Pie!
- TM Paolo regaled us with the full scope of Italian gestures as he rowed the Grand Canal in Venice looking for an espresso bar – ma che cosa???? He Won Best Speaker Award.
As far as evaluations go…
- DTM Mary Helen thoroughly enjoys TM Scott’s intelligent witticisms and will now convert the Broward Bilingual Club into English-Icelandic. She Won Best Evaluator Award.
- TM Tom praised TM Paolo for his virtual setting, his singing voice and above all his striped t-shirt. Paolo will go all the way to the Gondolieri Hall of Fame for sure!
The Word of the Day was
QUINTESSENTIAL, adj.
Representing the most typical example of a quality or class.
Example: Apple Pie A La Mode is the quintessential American dessert. Yummm….
