Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
TM Paula launched us off with thought-provoking phrases...
* TM Aleta finds the hilarious perspective in most things, simply because she's a hilariously perspectiveely personality.
* TM Pam agrees that there's comedy in contradictions. She's always exactly right and her husband is always exactly wrong - and that's comedic all right. She Won Best Table Topics Award.
* I, Ana, have thought "that is a curious reaction" plenty of times in my married life and have decided to say nothing and say it often.
* TM Paolo explained that if he has said what he meant, it would simply be La vita es bellissima... la vita es bella.... la dolce vita.... and then the luce rossa stopped him.
* TM Tom said that humor is a sophisticated tool of the mind and St. Patrick's Day is coming, dear Mc Anythings.
* DTM Mary Helen has been suffering from acute language commingling syndrome, whereby Spanglish becomes PortuGerman. Tudo ben, tudo bon.
* TM Randolph asserts that the way to tell the story is when his mind is made up, please don't confuse him with the facts.
* TM BeckyJo proposed to conduct our next EarlyBirds meeting in Portuguese to support DTM Mary Helen's linguistic derangement syndrome.
* DTM Jim D. has been contaminated by the linguistic syndrome and now thinks in Russian and counts in Croatian. He and DTM Mary Helen are headed straight for linguistic marital counseling.
* TM Emmanuel does not want to sound too serious but cannot help it although internally he is doubled over with laughter.
And then came the prepared speeches...
* TM Tom, aka The Mighty Quinn, wonders where the lions are, but remembers that everyone's beneath the trees, feeding pigeons on a limb, and when Quinn the Eskimo gets here, all the pigeons gonna run to him... He Won Best Speaker Award.
* TM Pam motivates others to do her bidding. From Pathways she has learned to read instructions, follow directions, end at the beginning and upload it all to the cloud. If her reach exceeds her grasp, what's a heaven for? (But I digress)....
As far as evaluations go...
* TM Randolph likes TM Tom's teaching style of speaking and is all for bushes covering the water treatment plant eyesore. He Won Best Evaluator Award.
* TM Paolo commended TM Pam for her pause, projection, pitch, performance and suggested she avoid swinging in her seat.
