Omaha West Rotary Club Secretary Report for June 1, 2018.
We had a great number of guests again on Friday. Guests and their host Rotarians included Daniel Boyd (Martie Cordero), Randy Porter (Martie Cordero), Whitney Baker (Deb Neary), Maryssa Brown (Dwayne Brown), Thomas Hollingsworth (Luke McNeese) and Lynette Curtin (Yolanda Hoffman). Brad Hess introduced us to his fiance, Ann Murley. Matt told Ann that all the stories about Brad were true and that the Rotarians at their table could confirm that.
Red Badge Members were recognized. The Rotarians with June birthdays were celebrated. Once more, John Morey led us in singing the Happy Birthday song to them.
Good news included word from Ron Niederhaus about his grandson's baseball scholarship. Nuzhat Mahmood shared that her son, Alexander, graduated from Pre-Kindergarten. Deb Neary thanked everyone for her primary victory for State Board of Education. That took some wind out of Matt's sails for assessing fines against her because he had a few newspaper articles about Deb obtaining 51% of the vote in the primary.
Matt fined Gene Klein for the Greater Omaha Chamber's Business Excellence Award for Project Harmony and also an editorial in the World Herald authored by Gene. Matt announced that no one sent in any articles to get him fined in the last week, but Martie Cordero said that he saw an news story on TV about Bitcoin. Matt took it under consideration at the time, but, upon further reflection, allowed the fine and fined himself a dollar.
Matt told the club assembly one last word of wisdom from the billboard in front of that bar in North Bend, Nebraska: "The dinosaurs did not have beer. How'd that work out for them?"
