gave the prayer and Joe Maloney lead the Pledge and Four Way Test.Politicians and diapers have one thing in common: they should both be changed regularly… and for the same reason.
Did you know that Sam Kovacevich has been in the hospital and has recently been released? Our Prayers are with Sam and his family. Don Kulwicki will be leaving next week on his road trip. It was good to see Jason Taege in attendance today. Jason is on the road on Thursday’s but shows up for meetings whenever possible. Thanks Jason!

Joe Maloney ran the meeting as President Paula Sours was unable to attend. Joe had Dave Keck explain more about Saturdays work detail at the El Campito School on Thomas Street. Joe talked about the $1 MILLION HOLE-IN-ONE CONTEST Sponsored by Roseland Rotary August 2, 2017. Every Roseland Rotarian should sign up to help.

Last week’s Newsletter asked the question about a picture, “do you know what this is”. At today’s meeting it was asked if anyone saw this and does anyone know the answer? No one knew or no one read it. The answer is Lyman Samuel.
What do you get when you cross a corrupt lawyer with a crooked politician? Chelsea Clinton.
Happy Dollars including Dr. Frank Toepp celebrating his daughter’s 40th wedding anniversary. Dave Keck fined Cliff Witkowski for having his picture in the newspaper. One of Cliff’s cartoons was featured in the Tribunes Editorial page. Cliff was unaware it was in the paper. Don Kulwicki for no pin. George Stump paid a dollar because it was a compelling thing to do. Ben Bendit was happy our speaker was here. Morris Rosen was happy the Cub’s have won 6 in a row. Bob Sones was happy Jason Taege was at our meeting. Dave Keck seconded that and it cost him a dollar. Joe Maloney was happy he found a Rotary Pin from the year 2000.
Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn’t.
Jason Taege gave his 3 minute speech. Jason is a banker and he told us a little about the banking business. He talked about the way banking was when he got into the business and what it is going to be like in the next 20 years. Maybe we should get Jason as a speaker as there was much interest in his talk.If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.

Man who keep feet firmly on ground have trouble putting on pants!
Ben asked the club to solve a riddle,
I turn polar bears white and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown and make your champagne bubble.
If you squeeze me, I’ll pop.
If you look at me, you’ll pop.
Can you guess the riddle?
Be at next week’s meeting to find out the answer.
When you are over the hill, you pick up speed.
By the way, 97% of Harvard graduates cannot figure the above riddle out, but 84% of kindergarten students were able to figure this out in 6 minutes or less.

Al Veldman left the meeting early and won the drawing. Al made enough to pay his fines for leaving early. That’s what he gets for not inviting us to the Elizabeth’s Veldman's Birthday Party.
I saw this sign the other day, “Free Puppies”: part German shepherd, part stupid dog.
Rotarians, go forth into the world with you head held high, a smile on your face, a briskness to your step and a helping hand where needed.
