Meeting #20 - recap
Last week's bocce session went well. We were shut out of the nice bocce courts, but played some extreme bocce as we watched the sun set. Highlights included Marin's first meeting and the return of Alan Nicholas. Next meeting: Tuesday, June 10th. Any good ideas for topics?
Let’s create a place to share good ideas - good ideas that foster good community, good environment, good people, and good times.
To start, this place would be a bi-weekly meeting. A forum to have fun, discuss important/relevant issues, and to discuss problems that we face as a people and a community. This will all be done over a few pints and glasses of wine.
Our ideas will vary widely, from discussions of religion, politics, history, philosophy, and ethics to a dirty joke night or a whiskey tasting. The ideas can and will change from meeting to meeting and hopefully we will hit on some good ideas - good ideas that we’ll put into action and create real results.
But the main idea of the Good Idea Society is to create a “society” of friends where ideas can be safely expressed and explored while having a good time. Not so different from our lives already – just a touch more structure to help bring the ideas to life.
Let’s be serious, but let’s not take ourselves too seriously. Let’s try to do good, but make sure we’re having fun and not getting bogged down in the weight of our ideas.
