Teresa shared information about our meals at
Damon's. Each week we have an option of a house salad or the entre prepared
for us that day. At no time is anyone to request to have chicken or
steak added to the salad. All that we are contracted for is the garden
salad. Additionally when you request special salads; the orders for everyone
else get backlogged because the server is also the one that has to prepare
the salad. There is additional cost that is borne by the club when you
place requests for extras too.
The committee assignments were placed
on the tables; it was also proposed to have a "Minute Man" list
for potential speakers available on a short notice if a scheduled speaker
is prevented from coming.
Teresa shared news from the Penn State Rotaract club for the new academic
year. Over 50 persons showed up to an informational session. These were
students that had been involved with Rotary as Interacters in high school.
Todd passed out coins from the PA National Guard to all Rotarians that
helped with the event.
The
Rotary Foundation Dinner is scheduled for November 4, 2006 in Hagerstown,
Maryland. Do not forget to register.
If you have coupon money please get that in. You can still sell those
babies.Coupon sales are still happening. Extras can be picked up from
Tracy Sepich. Sell Sell Sell your coupon books. Paul made
a flier that might help sell
these things which actually sell themselves: 49 coupons for various values
in town! Contact Rotarian Dr. Tracy Sepich to get your coupon
books. Her office is over by Lowes in the old Philatelic building.
Point your web browser to: http://www.rotilink.org/eClubs/

with the e-club. At the end, you print out your make up slip and submit
it to current secretary Rainer Domalski.
| Previous
Week's Speaker: No
notes |
There
were no notes so you have to put up with more bad jokes.
An elderly Rotarian and his wife are having problems remembering things,
so they decide to go to the doctor for a checkup. The doctor tells them
that they are physically okay but they might want to start writing things
down to help them remember. Later that night, while watching TV, the Rotarian
gets up from his chair.
Wife: "Where are you going dear?"
Rotarian: "To the kitchen"
Wife: "Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?"
Rotarian: "Sure."
Wife: "Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember
it?"
Rotarian: "No, I can remember that!"
Wife: "Well, I'd like some strawberries on top. You'd better write
it down 'cause I know you'll forget it."
Husband: "I can remember that! You want a bowl of ice cream with
strawberries."
Wife: "I'd also like whipped cream. Now I'm certain you'll forget
that, so you'd better write it down."
Rotarian: "I don't need to write it down. I can remember that! Ice
cream with strawberries and whipped cream!"
He then grumbles all the way to the kitchen. After about 20 minutes he
returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs.
She stares at the plate for a moment and says, "Where's my toast?
Service
Above Self
A woman was sitting at a bar enjoying an after work cocktail with her
girlfriends when an exceptionally tall, handsome, extremely sexy middle-aged
Rotarian entered.
He was so striking that the woman could not take her eyes off him. The
young-at-heart Rotarian noticed her overly attentive stare and walked
directly toward her (as all men will).
Before she could offer her apologies for so rudely staring, he leaned
over and whispered to her, "I'll do anything, absolutely anything,
that you want me to do, no matter how unusual?, for $20.00......on one
condition." (There are always conditions).
Flabbergasted, the woman asked what the condition was. The handsome Rotarian
replied, "You have to tell me what you want me to do in just three
words." (controlling, huh?)
The woman considered his proposition for a moment, then slowly removed
a $20 bill from her purse, which she pressed into the man's hand along
with her address. She looked deeply into his eyes, and slowly, and meaningfully
said....
. . .
. . .
. . .
. . .
. . ."Clean my house."

If
we only listen to those whom we already see eye to eye, we will
never create better understanding, a concept that is at the
core of Rotary.
-Martin G Molony, District 1160 Governor, Dublin Central, Ireland
in The
Rotarian, January 2006

"Of
the things we think, say or do:
Is
it the TRUTH?
Is
it FAIR to all concerned?
Will
it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will
it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?"
