Hey Buffalo,
I want to commend Darryle for putting together a superb meeting! Special thanks to Paul Murphy for a great icebreaker speech and elevated heart rate as well as the talented Mrs. Pamela G. for her "Practice" speech.
The evaluators provided "spot on" feedback and the vibe was truly great! I'm actually taking my daily french press tradition to a new level and practicing it to perfection!
Our two guests had a blast (R.J. Kern & Maggie) and I believe with a successful vote we will have another new member in the way of R.J. Kern! R.J. is a photographer and I believe he will add some wonderful new perspective to the club.
And I'm going to throw a shout out to Linda Knudson for one of the best round of jokes I've heard in quite some time! Nice job Linda!
Well I'm signing out for today, my French Press is calling...

Wednesday's meeting
Hi all,
We had so much fun at yesterday's meeting! Darryle was our Toastmaster and he did an amazing job. He is such a positive person and has so much energy, he made it a great meeting for all of us.
It was really fun to see Paul's Icebreaker speech. It is always nice to learn about new members. He did a great job, and didn't seem nervous at all. It was hilarious at the end when he told us how high his heart rate was! I remember my Icebreaker, I thought I was going to die! But I didn't, and I am still a member of Buffalo Toastmasters:)
My mentor, Pamela, also did her final speech in yet another manual. I can't believe how much she has accomplished through Toastmasters. It is very admirable and it motivates me to keep working on my speeches, no matter how challenging they may be.
I was an evaluator this meeting for Paul's speech. It was difficult to find things that he needs to improve on since he did so well. I did have a lot to say about his natural speaking skills.
I also participated in Table topics. Martha came up with some fun and challenging questions for all of us. It was tough and I didn't speak for as long as I should have, but I also didn't open it with "Ummmmmmm....".
I had a great time, and I can't wait for the next meeting!
