Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
TM Chris brilliantly led us in table topics up for debate.
We learned that....
* TM Gail is pro clearing up a house for sale so that new owners get a better idea of how they can make it look.
* TM Terri took the same side and also believes in clearing up a house for sale because an empty house looks bigger and unleashes the creativity of prospects.
* TM Veronica is pro legalizing casinos - they bring a lot of revenue and boost the local economy, and in Florida they benefit the native american tribe who owns the largest one. It's also a great venue for concerts.
* TM David is against legalizing casinos because he worked for an online gaming company and he saw how the addictive behavior got people hospitalized.
* TM The Tom is pro school uniforms because it fosters equality and eliminates competition for Best Dressed, students focus on academics instead of fluff and frill.
* TM Aleta is against school uniforms because they stifle creativity and growth - and students end up customizing their uniforms to look different anyway! She Won Best Table Topics Award.
We had (2) prepared speeches...
* TM David told us about his struggles with procrastination, especially in things he most likes. Taking action is the antidote! He Won Best Speaker Award.
* I, Ana, told the history of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, the beach diving capital of America, and its humble beginnings which have kept it a gem among towering giants.
Next came the fabulous evaluations...
* TM Marie praised TM David for his organization, confidence, display of leadership and persuasion. She Won Best Evaluator Award.
* DTM Mary Helen applauded the fact that I did not read my speech and encouraged me to continue to improve and to stop crunching land crabs while at it!
The Word of the Day was
SOPORIFIC,
Causes sleep (noun)
Induces sleep (adjective)
Example: A glass of warm milk and a monotonous tv series are the best soporifics known to man.

See you next week for our special FAREWELL to our friends The Gulds! SNIFF....
