Dear Members, Guests, Friends:
TM The Tom led us with eclectic topics, from whence we gathered that...
* TM Terri would invent "Rest Your Bones Day" as a national holiday, when you simply do nothing, nada, niente, or if you're really dynamic, you take yourself to the beach.
* TM BeckyJo would fly around Epcot with a drunken space alien and ride Space Mountain, again and again. She Won Best Table Topics Award.
* TM Ricardo was petrified - and made the rest of us petrified by association - by reading the bathroom scene in The Shining, second only to the bathroom scene in Psycho.
* DTM Mary Helen, calling in from Babylon Berlin, is no longer a mere lurker in FB Aldi's Aisle of Shame but a full fledged participant.
* TM Marie faced the majestic ocean in Atlantic City after spending days at her father's quarry in her rural home - and her life has just never been the same again.
* TM Paolo would become Domenico Modugno or preferably Rodolfo Valentino (both Apulia's favorite sons) if he could be the Master of Disguise. For now, he's flying back to meet Chair Giorgia Meloni at the G7 summit.
We had 2 prepared speeches...
* TM Pam took us all down memory lane in a humorous speech about becoming concert singer groupies in the chapter of our lives called The Last Gasp... of our octogenarian favorite bands. She Won Best Speaker Award.
* I, Ana, shared how overwater bungalows in French Polynesia came into existence and how Tahitian television has spread to Jamaica, Maldives, Mexico, hither and thither.
And along came evaluations....
* TM Randolph praised TM Pam for her funny, funnier, funniest speech about old musical glories that are literally taking their last gasps.
* TM Jose enjoyed learning the history of overwater bungalows and was glad there were no shark encounters - especially since there were 3 attacks in the Florida Panhandle in knee-deep water over the last week. Yikes! He Won Best Evaluator Award.
The Word of the Day was
DISCOMBOBULATED, adj.
Confused, disconcerted.
Example: Discombobulated is the natural state - most of the time - of some of our EarlyBird members, who shall remain nameless....
Here's the link to the recording
See you next week!
