Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
TM Aleta took us down memory lane reminiscing about childhood events. We learned that....
* TM Randolph is impervious to physical pain which requires multiple sutures and a tetanus shot.
* DTM Jim D.'s grandma was a merry widow when she married his merry MYOB (Make Your Own Beer) grandpa.
* TM Jim G.'s wise and worldly teenage sister Debbie at times gave him disconcerting advice.
* I, Ana, spent joyous Christmases in my early days in Havana, followed by a disconcerting decade, to be subsequently recaptured again for my progeny. I Won Best Table Topics Award.
* TM Pam's all-time favorite childhood memory is digging clams in the cold Pacific waters after enduring warm Florida waters.
* TM Tom's uncovered family secret is that his great grandpa was involved in a shootout with the Dalton Gang in Coffeeville, Kansas - straight out of a John Wayne movie.
Along came the prepared speeches...
* DTM Mary Helen overcame being disconcerted by a cheeseless bruschetta (correctly pronounced by her) pizza and got a free cannoli as a prize.
* TM Marie (Mimi) successfully survived germ-carriers and mastered Eat, Pray and Love while living to tell her great grandchildren about the olden days of Zoom. She Won Best Speaker Award.
* DTM Kip showed his grit in overcoming a health challenge and displayed his chipper Southern and Irish core while asking for our unfaltering adoration.
And lastly, we had great evaluations...
* TM Chris was transported back to Roman ruins by DTM Mary Helen's speech and Prego! Prego'd her way to being excavated from them by Moose. She Won Best Evaluator Award.
* TM Pam praised TM Marie's outstanding vocal variety and Zoom mastery while suggesting she emulate the Royal Family's disconcerting fascinator hats.
* TM Tom highlighted DTM Kip's humor and bravado which are an inspiration to all of us and will inexorably point us to pick a Pathways, once and for all! .
The Word of the Day was
DISCONCERTING, adj.
How we feel when things are not going right.
Example: Filling in meeting roles at the last minute is no longer disconcerting for EarlyBirds - now it comes naturally.
Next TLI: June 18. Look out for more information.
TM Randolph performed the role of Presiding Officer impeccably, giving us a taste of things to come!
