Sergeant At Arms and Other Club Fines

Sergeant at Arms (Noon Group)

Sergeant Brian paid his AWOL fine for last week

Whole table except guests were late

Tony T for being a Bruins fan.

Randy Klein for being really late

Birthday Table

CLIFF HAD A HUGE ISSUE WITH A FINE THAT BRIAN LEVIED. HE BELIEVED IT INFRINGED ON THE 4 WAY TEST: IS IT BENEFCIAL FOR ALL! APPARENTLY IT GENERATED A LARGE AMOUNT OF SMALL CHANGE AND CLIFF HAD TO ROLL IT ALL! THIS MAY GO TO THE SUPREME COURT FOR A RULING

Fines from the Cocktail Group

Heather tracked down Deane to pay up for last week's faux pas of admitting, in public that he wears a Fanny Pack.

Deane successfully defended his wearing of a fanny pack, because his, was not just any fanny pack, but a designer variety fanny pack.

Happy Bucks

Family Happiness (Who doesn't love family?)

Sarah-Jane was happy to spend time with her kids' partners.

Paula was happy that her son will be voting in the upcoming election for the first time and that he attended the lunch all candidate's meeting.

On Moving and Travel

Darlene was happy to list Marilyn's log home and for the Moose that wandered into the pictures.

Sandra D was happy to book a trip to Nashville for the fall with all kids

Julie S had an unfortunate buck as her washer and dryer gave up the ghost a few weeks before moving date (timing is critical!) also happy that she enjoyed a Theo's dinner.

Fashion emotion:

Andrew fined Scott for his argyle socks.

Scott just couldn't handle the fashion gods so fined Sandra for her McDonald's print dress. Sarah-Jane came to Sandra's rescue - she paid the fine and congratulated Sandra in pulling off the Golden Arches with great style.

Andrew has an inappropriate buck for Tammy's portrayal of Marilyn Monroe.

Crustacean Elation!

Lots of happiness about lobsterfest and other Rotary events with a little unhappiness thrown in

Sandra Smith was happy to be a Rotarian and for the great time she had at Lobsterfest

Marilyn was happy to have stayed for the LF clean up until 2 am! She was also very happy with Darlene's awesome video of her log home (for sale) and for the moose that wandered onto the set during filming.

Nicole was happy for all of the help at Lobsterfest and for Julie who organized the clean up party

Julie was upset about her car being keyed while she was at Lobsterfest (the rest of the club is also upset and terribly sorry Julie)

Andrew was happy that 80 people attended the Rotary Lunch to meet the MPP candidates for Orillia (related to Rotary happiness, not crustacean elation)

Random Happiness

Terri was happy for an excellent hike on the French River (and also happy to see Sarah-Jane at Rotary)

Allison was happy about her Dog walking Angel! (and also happy about an awesome Lobsterfest)

Tony was happy that Deena likes his farmer's tan and his tractor

Keep m laughing

A moth wanders into a psychiatrist's office. He sits down and begins telling the psychiatrist about his struggles. He hates his job, he and his wife are drifting apart and his kids seem to be on a path to self destruction. He just doesn't know what to do.

The psychiatrists asks the moth "why did you come here?"
