Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
We inducted our newest member, TM Emmanuel - welcome to EarlyBirds, Emmanuel!
TM Aleta got us thinking about influential photographs of momentous times. We soon found out that...
* TM Val wanted to know what lunch the construction guys sitting on a beam at 15,000 ft of altitude were having.
* TM BeckyJo stated the world has once again lost its collective mind and one person needs to stand in front of those tanks in Tianamen Square again.
* TM Paolo wants to keep the oceans blue so Earth pictures taken from the moon will still have that peak of the camera quality to them.
* New TM Emmanuel reflected on the atomic explosion over Hiroshima/Nagasaki and the scary nuclear threats that are being hurled around today. He Won Best Table Topics Award. Bravo, TM Emmanuel!
* TM Tom would have liked a marine instead of a squishy sailor to kiss the unknown girl on Broadway to celebrate the last South Pacific performance.
* TM Randolph likened the despairing women with a child in their arms to a Bible story with a happy ending.
* DTM Jim D. marveled at how laborers toted bricks on their shoulders like feathers even before the invention of franchise gyms in our country.
As far as prepared speeches...
* TM Pam took a race driving course for no reason other than to awaken her attention deficit lethargic disorder and to prove to herself that car spinning is lotsa fun. She Won Best Speaker Award.
* I, TM Ana, asserted that Scottish highlanders in the 17th Century did NOT have beautiful smiles, except in Hollywood.
And then came evaluations...
* TM Val wanted to know, first and foremost, where did TM Pam get her raingear.to go around the race track.
* TM Chris told me in no uncertain terms to read my (funny) speeches at reading school. She Won Best Evaluator Award.
