We had quite a few MIAs in the meeting room tonight, but we still had a great time. Hope to see more people next week.

John G returned to the speaking arena with a view of Intellectual Ventures, a local company that is either the worst thing ever or a source of incredible ideas. We get to decide for ourselves.

Yao delivered another funny speech, this time about her most recent trip to Thailand which included lost luggage, nearly killing an elephant and being saved from a tipsy mule by a vision of Ray Roman! If you weren’t here tonight, you missed a seriously funny, ribbon winning speech.

Scott kept us on our toes with Table Topics, but Erin stole the show with her story of mosquitos, flies and a few local bars which landed her the best Table Topics ribbon.

Our evaluation team was in the last minute hands of Melissa who orchestrated a very able feedback session with Dale and Steve providing insights and suggestions for our speakers.

REMINDER: Officers meeting next Wednesday night, June 2nd. This is the transitional meeting so the current team and the incoming team are all needed to stay after the normal meeting to prepare for the handover.

You may be asking what the bonus is….an extra set of official minutes! The last time I jotted down notes on May 5th I didn’t have a chance to send my ramblings.
