All good this week.

Jim M - Within one week, went from complete boredom (golfing at Glen Abbey) to extreme excitement (smashing his Corvette into a racetrack wall).  The car was not insured for that use.  The good news?  Jim survived.

Don Fanstone - Got to deliver roses with Rebekah, and then got some brownie points with his wife Myra when Todd dropped off some roses there.

Mike M - Glad to see Bob T.

Bob Bedford - He brought some lovely ladies to present to us today, and Gary Hauser is one of his favorite guys so he gave him a necklace.  ed:I just write the news, I don't make judgements or draw conclusions.  Bob, if you're reading this, Gary is married.

At this point, good news fell apart as we witnessed former member Bob Thiesburger and Todd debase themselves publicly.  Bob praised the club for letting Todd back in even though he's not too bright.  Todd let us know that he respects his elders, except for Bob.

And it went on.  Just when you thought they were done, the other one would pop up again.

Paul M played it safe with all the visitors today.  He told us something about the pearly gates.  Not too memorable (I've already forgotten the punch line on this one so I'm not going to rate it).

During the Q&A, Paul TC showed some confusion about the YMCA and the YWCA.  It turns out he's been going to the wrong place all along.

 

Dean thanked our speaker.
