Important Meetings Scheduled


The time-travelers convention will be held yesterday at a place to be announced.  A good time will be had by all.

The tenth annual procrastinators meeting will be held in the usual place—which is nowhere, since none of you ever shows up.  If you do, it will actually be the first annual meeting.

The liar’s convention will be held at the Grand Canyon, if you can believe that.

The meeting of hopelessly confused people, will convene tomorrow at 8 AM to schedule a meeting to decide when and where to hold tomorrow’s 8 AM meeting.

The fortune-tellers meeting will be held at the time and place you already predicted.

The pessimist meeting will probably not be held.  What would be the point?  Nothing good will come of it.

The mind-readers meeting . . . .

The gate-crashers meeting will be held next week.  None of you are invited.

The hurry-up meeting has already been held.  You missed it.

The tardy-people meeting will be held at 8AM.  Try to be there by noon.

The meeting for indecisive people will be held tomorrow at 11AM.  No wait, let’s make that next week at 3 PM.

The Most Realistic Mystery Novel Ever

  The Most Realistic Mystery Novel Ever —by Robert Arvay As an amateur writer of fiction, I have often wondered how other writers come up with the names for their characters. Then, one day, I thought to myself that, just about everybody in real life knows at least two people who have the same exact name. Yet, I know of no fiction writers who give two of their characters the same name. To correct that, I am writing a mystery novel that is realistic enough to give characters the same name. After all, it COULD happen in real life, so why not in fiction? Here are the opening lines of the story: John Smith was speaking to John Smith about John Smith, when John Smith entered the room. “Hey,” he said, “I just found some interesting information on John Smith.” John Smith asked, “Do you mean John Smith?” “No,” John Smith replied. “I’m talking about John Smith.” “Oh, him,” John Smith said.

Rather Sternly

  Rather Sternly A Few Short Works by Robert Arvay The Triangle A lot of people have the mistaken impression that, in an orchestra, the easiest instrument to play is the triangle. Well, that’s just not true.  Actually, the triangle is the most difficult of all instruments to play.  That’s why I was selected to play it in the Plant City Fill Harmonica Orchestra. You see, any other instrument you play, you hold it firmly in your hand, so that you always know where it is.  Not so with the triangle.  You hold it while it dangles from a string.  It takes years of training (if you count the day you were born) to master the art of holding that string just so. So there I was.  My part in the whole entire evening of orchardly – or kestrally — whatever, my whole part came down to one critical moment in the entire composition, when at precisely, exactly the right instant, I was to strike that triangle with that little shiny thingy that they ...
