Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
We officially inducted our newest member, TM Cory, into our Club. Welcome!
TM Gail started us off with Palantine's, Gallantine's and Love Your Pet Day topics.. We were about to discover that ..
* DTM Mary Helen's palantines are her Argentine friend and our loyal (absentee) member Ellie - they all share good times together, on Palantine's Day and any day, for that matter.
* I, Ana, reminisced about a memorable Valentine's Day on the eve of my middle daughter's wedding in Miami, surrounded by transatlantic and multistate friends from various stages of life. And, after the wedding.... the marriage began!! (They are still married today).
* TM Cory and his partner will go to a new restaurant and celebrate with many surprises - balloons, candy and lots of online purchases. TM Gail and several other Club members have signed up to be his Valentines too.
* TM BeckyJo has an ungrateful cat who only comes to her for food - lavishes all other feline endearments to BeckyJo's roommate. Such is life, even on Love Your Ungrateful Pet Day! She Won Best Table Topics Award.
We had (2) fantabulous prepared speeches today...
* TM Aleta regaled us with her Music Remix - Take 2 - an improved musicalized crescendo of her life and adventures. She, too, did it her way!
* TM Jim summarized his and TM Chris' life in various chapters and described the new world marine adventure upon which they are embarking. Then he had a vibrant Q&A session and told us about digitizing memories to addressing potential health concerns to handling temporary visitors to the cost of room and board. He Won Best Speaker Award.
As far as evaluations are concerned...
* TM BeckyJo praised TM Aleta for heeding the evaluator's feedback and enhancing her musical lifestory. Put Nowhere Man in Penny Lane and there's your New Kid in Town....
* DTM Mary Helen was thoroughly impressed (as were the rest of us) with TM Jim G's visual aid mastery, seamlessly transporting us from their RV to the high seas on the good ship lollipop. She Won Best Evaluator Award.
The Word of the Day was
GALLANT, adj.
Courageous, brave
Polite and respectful to women
