Well, I'm sorry this musing is a little late as I have been doing some in-depth research on Heroism. This was prompted by a suggestion at last week's board meeting.
The suggestion was that we should honour our Rotary Super-heros in a more tangible way. It is just not fitting enough that our heroes have reached the pantheon of Walhalla. The hall of the mountain King is a might chilly this time of year, with one of the best years for skiing for sometime.
So, I thought I had better delve into the latest research on Heroism. Not just your ordinary run of the mill 'for valour' stuff. Being google savvy, it just took a couple of key strokes to enter the world of gaming super heroes. There is a whole world out there at our finger tips.
You too can have all the traits of a Hugh Jackman Wolverine, or snap freeze the bad guys and girls. Not only do you have something that you excel at, that can repel the opposition, but wait there's more. You can have gender options. It seems a bit Politically Incorrect that the female characters in the Outwatch game have to wear bathing costumes. If you are into more morally correct gaming, there is Godville. To reach saintly status you need lots of encouragement lest you stumble to the other end, where the really evil people are.
As for me, I have not got over my fixation for Lara Croft in Tomb Raider. Her weaponry and fast reloads are of legendary status. Maybe that is what Bazza from Moe South was aiming at. We should be legends in our own lunch time. A great slogan, but harder to achieve.
In the meantime, we will just have to be mere mortals and gaze up at the pantheon of heroes, the John Dwyers and Claude Staffs. And try and be everyday heroes, mow the lawns and turn the sausages at the next sausage sizzle, while we dream...

I again wish to congratulate Roger Taylor, Len Cairns and Diane Wilkinson on being presented with the Paul Harris Sapphire Pin and our Rotarian of the year, Robin Noakes.
As I stated during the evening, each recipient of these awards was very well deserved. All have contributed many hours of service during their time in Rotary and have especially assisted me during my year, along with each and every member of our club, to work towards and achieve our specified goals.
Paddy brings his best golf mate, Patrick, home, unannounced, for dinner at 6:30 p.m., after golf.
His wife screams her head off while his friend sits open mouthed and listens to the tirade. "My bloody hair and makeup are not done, the house is a bloody mess, and the dishes aren't done. Can't you see I'm still in my damn pyjamas and I can't be bothered with cooking tonight! Why the devil did you bring him home unannounced, you stupid idiot?" "Because he's thinking of getting married."
