Fred Klein (Nancy\u2019s Partner) gave Norman Spizz (SPN Music & Entertainment) da business; I gave Ruperto Arvelo (Arvelo Architecture and Design) da business \u2026 I sure hope he\u2019s up and dancing like Fred Astaire soon. Norman Spizz gave us all da business.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Corey Bearak (Government and Public Affairs Counsel) helped with important business: is it MOGE or MOOG? Did you know that Albert Brooks was an Einstein? So grateful Nancy Schess (Klein, Zelman, Jacobs, Rothermel and Schess) isn\u2019t in the barber business. And apropos of nothing, I thought everyone knew what \u201cshicker\u201d is! <o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">It was great to have David Abeshouse (Law Office of David Abeshouse) and Jane Beddall (Dovetail Resolutions) on hand just in case we needed help finding common ground on these important matters. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Among the Happy Hour Honorables present was Dan Schwartz (Carr Business Systems ) he brought his 2020 Networker of the Year Plaque. Ray Walcott (Senior Business Relationship Mgr., Capital One Bank) let me give his daughter Madison da business for a few minutes.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Norman Spizz kept the one-liners coming; Paula Oleska (Natural Intelligent Systems) tossed in a joke \u2013 she might want to helping people improve their business with \u201cbrain upgrades\u201d her area of expertise; and RitaSue Siegel (RitaSue Siegel Resources) makes it her business to laugh at everything.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">There were no Mets or Yankee jokes. Perhaps because there\u2019s nothing funny about the baseball business these days \u2026 if there were, Roy Fenichel (MiT Land Services) would have said it.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Making each other laugh, sharing memories, enjoying the camaraderie, and getting to know each other better is da best. Did you know that before his show business career and way before he became and Events Master, Norman was in the business of shaping young minds \u2013 he had a profound impact on his students \u2013 no joke. He\u2019s been a mentor and a mensch for a long time.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">So, it\u2019s probably none of my business, but where are you going to be this Friday @5pm? Consider stopping by and join in the fun \u2013 it\u2019s time well spent - good business. </p><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="F1A5B029-ECEB-4523-ADFD-F64DC2E1FCF4" src="cid:75D2A061-B788-4142-9179-19284C50A80D" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><span class="" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Shelleygram\u2122</span> </div><div class="" style="font-family: CourierNewPSMT;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="font-family: CourierNewPSMT;"><br class=""></div><span style="font-family: CourierNewPSMT;" class="">Be Well! </span><div class="" style="font-family: CourierNewPSMT;"><br class=""><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="2F12EDA9-F91C-4532-87AB-12DF9B864BC2" class="" src="cid:28A9AEFF-4F5E-467C-8BB1-E6FAB85A98C2"><span class="" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 17px;"> </span><div class="" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; line-height: normal;"><div class="" style="font-family: "Snell Roundhand"; -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; margin: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><b class="" style="font-size: 17px;">Shelley Simpson, Esq</b></div><div class="" style="font-family: "Snell Roundhand"; -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; margin: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span class="" style="font-size: 17px;"><b class="">Business & Personal Development Partner</b></span></div><div class="" style="font-family: "Monotype Corsiva"; -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; margin: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span class="" style="font-size: 17px;">646-549-7217</span></div><div class="" style="font-family: "Monotype Corsiva"; -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; margin: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"></div><div class="" style="font-family: "Monotype Corsiva"; -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; margin: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"><i class=""><br class=""></i></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"><i class="">Find out how to reduce systemic inflammation and positively impact your overall health \u2026</i></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><br class=""><div class="">
