Thursday June 5, 2008 Triskelion Toastmasters Meeting Notes
Toastmaster Eric Peterson tried to raise our batting average with some baseball trivia. Janet Reese gave us the word “timeraiser” which I thought would mean that if you can do something in one minute, I’ll tell you I can do it in five. We welcomed our newest member, Julie, who filled in as timer.
Two excellent speeches were given today. Former club president Gary Fuller improved our “vision” with a lesson on leadership, and Dave Tzrupek gave us room for improvement in his speech “Becoming Better.” With that speech, he completed his first manual. Congratulations, Dave!
President-elect Mike Angell said he would make no decision tonight regarding his candidacy, except that he spuriously offered
Janet presented table topics on the theme of “summer” and we got various “summeries” of how members would spend their time. Congrats to Mikael Roth for winning the trophy with his description of his involvement in a wedding last week (not his).

Now, tell me this – if
Thanks to all for an inspiring meeting, and not a timewaster. Next meeting, we may have to discuss corruption in government. (Just kidding!)
