November 22nd review

Today was a rowdy meeting that was fun filled and a bit silly. Our Toastmaster of the day was Pen, who talked about how we can be thankful. The general evaluator was Paul, who was offended to be called Marisa, and had very little to say about the meeting, other than it was a fun meeting.
The speaker of the day was Lauralee, who gave a longer version of her lesson from the business meeting. She went over the communication and leadership tracks, from competent levels to becoming a Distinguished Toastmaster. Lee was her evaluator who said that the provided PowerPoint from Toastmasters International that could not be edited confined her freedom to work with the speech. He also liked the enthusiasm that she presented with.

Table topics master was Brian whose topic was thanksgiving. He asked Laimons why Mary had a little lamb was not Marry had a little Turkey, since the woman who wrote it was a part of the first thanksgiving. He said that is because turkeys are stupid and lambs are more cuddly. Laurie was asked how big of a family gathering she has had for thanksgiving, to which she said she had 25 people normally in her big family gatherings, which she looks forward to. Anjanette said that she would name the turkey, which meant peacock in an Indian language, a drab peacock. This is because the turkey has the fan similar to the peacock and they are shaped similarly. Anjanette won table topics this week.
The timer today was Laurie, and the grammarian today was Anjanette, whose word of the day was meshuggener, which means a foolish person.
Today was a bit light on people, so we hope wish everyone a happy thanksgiving and safe travels.
Have a good day!!
