His Honor Mayor Goodman failed to show up for our meeting today -
probably got some scheduling wires crossed. I'm betting he will make
up for it in a rescheduled visit. Interim President Bill Pierce
managed to produce an entertaining meeting with a healthy dose of
fines and cross fines, thankfully no tap dancing. Past President Mike
Sexton was fined for appearing in the Business Press, yet again, at a
power broker meeting sponsored by Nevada State Bank. Mike's fine will
go toward paying for books on a grant that Francie is working on. Ken
Cox donated his raffle winnings last week to the Interact Club
formation. Yours truly was mercilessly blasted with reminders of the
UCLA victory against the Longhorns at home. Lynn Price announced she
felt my pain, her teams also losing. (Tom Novotny is wondering who or
where Austin Peay College is now that Wisconsin beat them 70-0.
Proving that the Big 10 or so can whip up some weak schedules with the
Big 12 and Pac 10 or so.)
Francie Summers announced that she and Duncan Lee had an extremely
productive meeting with the elementary principal of the Agassi
Academy, and that we will be involved with that school this school
year. Also, Ted Gurr announced that Jerry Kops and Ted Baker will
lead the Interact club formation at West Tech. These are the final
two pieces of our school support for the year. Ken Cox announced the
tailgate party is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 18 this year. There
will be the ubiquitous sign-up sheet in the weeks to come.
I had hoped to fill the page with anecdotes from Hizzoner, but it will
have to wait until next time.
