Our Fine Fine Master Fining for Charity, Terry Ennes, asked for extra generosity because we’ll have only two meetings during his month as Fine Master.   Generously happy for the first time was Nick Mitzen, having relocated back here from Arizona.  Bill Kmiecik doubled his fine in order to have a Curious Fine about what seemed to be President Borton’s  special  relationship with Rolling Meadows.  Fodder for another fine was new member Nick, Mark Tauber saying Nick had been a student of his at Lake Forest Graduate School.  Kris Niemann was happy for Bill Park’s willingness to be both Pledger and Greeter on very short notice.  Jim Hassenplug was happy about having taken a cruise in New England.  Jon Ridler for having the Chamber Office back up and running quickly after the flooding (and the Santa Suits are okay, too!).   Millie Palmer was happy about her son’s team winning their how opener.  Millie said it seemed maybe the game was dedicated to Rolling Meadows Rotary and Linda Borton !  Bill Park was happy to hear our club lauded when he “made up” at Park Ridge.  Linda Borton was happy for our “collaboration” with Rolling Meadows and inducting her first new member as president.   Joe Musolino was happy as an ambitious Membership Chair to be fortunate to have his first new member.

Our Fine Quiz was based on "Name That Tune" – listening to the song, naming it, telling who performed it, then answering some questions about it.  For the answers and interesting background, see "More" below.  Get yourself to humming these tunes --

  • Heartbreak Hotel  [ The inspiration for the song got an "All right !" from Bob Paddock when it turned out to be a newspaper article about a suicide of a lonely man who jumped from a hotel window].
  • Cryin’
  • I want to hold your hand.
  • All Along The Watchtower
  • Born to Be Wild
  • Superstar
  • Call Me
  • Candle in the Wind
