I think I recall something about this a while ago. Let me write it down and I'll get right on it.

Wish I could help, but I forgot it all, my mind is a clean slate now.

I vote for a reorganization meeting.

Hey wasn't the Alshiemer's seminar then too? Can't quite recall..

If you chew your food thoroughly none of us will have to perform alzheimers on you.

Was there another meeting? I thought it was s'posed to be later. Oh, well, I guess I'll just have to try to make the next one.

Manana; hasta luego, later gator.

Alzheimers Seminar was finally cancelled.....nobody could remember the date. I plan on going to the next one.....

Haven't we done this already?

Were getting around to the next annual meeting Rick! When are you free, most of us are thinking next week, or month, maybe before the new year!

Heck, I think I'll read this tomorrow.


Procrastination
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Procrastination is a behavior which is characterized by deferment of actions or tasks to a later time. Psychologists often cite procrastination as a mechanism for coping with the anxiety associated with starting or completing any task or decision. [1] Psychology researchers also have three criteria they use to categorize procrastination. For a behavior to be classified as procrastination, it must be counterproductive, needless, and delaying.[2]

For an individual, procrastination may result in stress, a sense of guilt, the loss of personal productivity, the creation of crisis and disapproval from others for not fulfilling one's responsibilities or commitments. These combined feelings can promote further procrastination. While it is normal for people to procrastinate to some degree, it becomes a problem when it impedes normal functioning. Chronic procrastination may be a sign of an underlying psychological or physiological disorder.

The word itself comes from the Latin word procrastinatus: pro- (forward) and crastinus (of tomorrow). The term's first known appearance was in Edward Hall's The Union of the Noble and Illustre Famelies of Lancastre and York, first published sometime before 1548.[3] The sermon reflected procrastination's connection at the time to task avoidance or delay, volition or will, and sin."

Larry, I will read that next week.

ok !!! this is the last time i`m making my first post in this thread .. at least till the next time

Thanks Larry, I was thinking about looking that up one of these days.

Good info Larry. I especially like the delay, avoid, and sin part.... Everything else I'll have to get at later.....

I say we nominate Larry as our chairman. If memory serves, we need to fill out a form to make it official. I might take the day off today & look for the forms, but we'll see how it goes.
