Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
TM Aleta started us off with a wonderful Ode To A Boomer based on cherished song lyrics from when those were the days my friends....
TM Val led Table Topics in a game of Let's Get Talking. We found out that...
* TM Jim G.'s historical nickname is King James and simply His Majesty to his close friends.
* TM Aleta, ever resilient and frugal, repaired a lawn mower and is currently assembling a tractor in her spare time.
* DTM Mary Helen would like to wear a t-shirt asking "What?" to elicit lascivious chest glances as conversation starters.
* TM Tom's favorite personal possession which he would never sell is this group, EarlyBirds. We're relieved, Tom!
* TM Jose has taught us how to make paella, Spanish omelette, how to drive a Jimney and is working on his Empathize with Others curriculum.
* TM Marie emulates Seinfeld's parents and has dinner at 4 pm and breakfast the night before in order to rise and shine at 3 am every morning.
* TM BeckyJo would invite SPF, of FTX Fraud Frequent Flyer notoriety, as her first guest to her talk show. Deal with it, New York Chimes! She Won Best Table Topics Award.
Along came the prepared speeches...
* TM Tom got reeled into the late DTM Kip's orbit and left the rest of us in the dust regarding Pathways initials. Just Do It! Became Tom's motto and he's still battling the Condo Commandos.
* TM Pam momentarily became Kennyanne Rogers of The Gambler fame and taught us when to hold them, when to fold them, when to walk away and when to run - regarding native plants and the authoritarian regimes in Native Plant circles.
* TM Chris has been breathing underwater for decades now but would highly appreciate growing artificial gills to find weightless acquatic paradise.
Both speakers showed wanton disregard for timing requirements and did not qualify. Some potential election fraud ensued but a recount was demanded and the controversy stopped dead in its tracks.
And then came the evaluations...
* TM Paolo praised TM Tom's resilience in that most difficult environment, HOAs. He pleaded emphatically and sang Will The Real Tom Q please stand up? (sung to the tune of Will The Real Trim Brady Please Stand Up?)
* TM Chris is searching for native plants in a nearby nursery to start her own native plant yard tours and scenery. Sign up asap. She Won Best Evaluator Award.
The word of the Day was
RESILIENCE, noun
Successfully adapting to challenging experiences; capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; ability of a substance to withstand undue pressure.
Example: Our local Club members showed great resilience in surviving Denny's skillet consumption in the days of yore.- especially in light of recent news. EEEEOOOOUUUU.....

See you next week!
