Filling in for Finemaster Glenn Oyoung, Bob Harbicht announced that he “had a lot of grudges to settle.”  He was momentarily at a loss for words, however, when Dick Martinez pointed that “we haven’t voted yet.”  So …

First up was Dick Martinez.  He is part of a regular golf group within the club and was questioned about his activities.  After a couple of groaner golf jokes, Dick was recognized for a fine of $50.

Jack Lamb has been a Rotarian for 60 years.  Bob noted that no one is saying that Jack is old, but when he goes out to dinner they ask him to pay first.  Congratulating Jack for his long years of service, Bob fined him $50.

A newer member, Harry Agajanian, has been in the club for less than a year.  According to Bob, when Harry completed his membership application, the space asking him to “Sign Here” was answered with “Sagittarius.”  A fine for $50 was thus earned by Harry.

With 10 years in Arcadia Rotary, John Davis was quick to note that he doesn’t live in Arcadia so there is no voting issue.  Bob responded that except for Dick Martinez, none of the fine recipients live in Arcadia.  Then Bob shared his Rotary memory of John:  At a recent Rotary beach party, John brought his wife in a snazzy wheelchair equipped with big balloon tires to handle the sand.  Car-lover Bob was impressed with the fancy chariot, which earned John a fine of $50.

Next, Bob Hoffman – another non-Arcadian – was recognized initially for $50 for his work as Bob Harbicht’s investment advisor.  Bob Harbicht has a small fortune invested with Bob Hoffman … he started with a large one.  (Another groaner!)  Bob Hoffman’s fine was reduced to $25 because the market was up on Friday.

Finally, a Past President from “a few years ago” – 2012-13 to be exact – Brad Miller was recognized for $50 for his service and … for being another non-Arcadia voter.
