Who ordered the special??

Today’s meeting was overloaded with special guests, special speeches, special events, and especially good PIZZA thanks to Rey! Toastmaster Stuart Cooked up a storm today, throwing all kinds of pizza lingo at us, and even managed to say the chuckle that Albert planned to serve up later. (It was OK - do you really think Albert would be left without something to say??).

As usual, Patrick came up with some tasty table toppings, really in-depth and philosophical questions like “when is the best time to eat leftover pizza?”, for me, Brendan, Keith and Stephen to chew on. Brendan and Keith were both hilarious despite their handicaps, one mental the other physical, while newcomer Stephen owned his table topic question “Why is pizza so much better in a box?” with a saucy and creative explanation, delving into the ‘essence’ of pizza. Bravo!

Maria was dressed to kill today for her speech on the job interviewing process, after what she told us, maybe she was actually dressed to KILL that guy who didn’t give her the job she was after. ;)

CONGRATULATIONS to Wendy, who gave her 10th fabulous speech today, simultaneously finished her CC manual, AND fulfilled the last requirement for our club to become a Presiden’ts Distinguished club, yay!!!!
