Another beautiful day draws to a close, as Ronny scans the deck where his close friends are seated. Ronnie’s eyes make their way down the steps to the rest of the yard containing more avid listeners, sitting in their lawn chairs, and behind them more neighbours in the surrounding yards are watching and listening over the backyard fences.
Ronny stood on his chair. “I have an announcement to all here listening today. There seems to be more people wanting to hear what I have to say, so I have arranged to rent a meeting hall at the school gymnasium. I will have several guess speakers, who will be talking about a number of topics. I will also try to get some surprise speakers. You are all welcome to attend, bring more friends if you wish.”
A man yelled from over the fence in the rear yard. “When and how much?”
“How about next Saturday and Sunday with just a small fee to help pay for the rental and extra chairs.” Ronny answered. We will start at 9:30 am. Then a short break one hour for lunch then back at 1:00 pm till four o’clock. Depending on the response, we may have to continue this event on Sunday. How does that sound?” People started replying from all over the yards we’ll be there.
“Then it’s settled, I will make all of the arrangements. See you all next Saturday and maybe Sunday as well.” Ronny got off his chair, said goodbye to his close friends on the porch and went inside to start making the arrangements.
The week went by like a whirlwind for Ronny but he was able to make all the necessary calls, everything went together like clockwork. The big day arrived Ronny was very nervous, for this was his first time putting an event like this together. Catherine was a great help of course and worked just as hard helping to finalize the little details.
“So I’ll speak first in the morning and talk about the pharmaceuticals. Then we will have our good friend Albert Johnson give, his talk about the government after lunch, then Bob Nash will talk about the cartels after the break, then on Sunday we’ll have our surprise speaker Normand Desmarais speak.
They are the ones who will explain ‘The how we can make a difference’. They will also explain how we can bring about a positive change to our world, thus helping most people out of the ruts that they live in today.” Ronny nervously pronounced.
“That’s the way we planned it darling, don’t worry too much about the way it will go, it will be fine. You yourself know that worrying does not help, just go with the flow and it will all work out.” Catherine calmly said as she gave him a kiss on the cheek.
“Thanks for the little pep talk.” Ronny replied as he gave her a hug and a kiss in return.
It was nine am and the doors were open. Ronny and Catherine were shocked at the amount of people who had shown up. Soon it was standing room only inside the hall.
Ronny turned to Catherine saying. “Well, we’ll see how this weekend goes and maybe next time we’ll rent a larger space.” Catherine replied with an affirmative nod then added with a smile on her face, “If you build it they will come.”
At 9:30 am Ronny walked up to the small stage stood at the podium, turned the microphone on and announced himself.
“Thank you all for attending on such a beautiful sunny day, I am sure that you will all find it worth your while. My name is Ronny and I’ll be your host and first speaker today. We will be talking about the subjects that most of you have heard in my back yard, but I will go into more detail. So will our guest speakers, by the way I am expecting one surprise speaker. He has a very busy schedule and has promised me that he will try to attend his name is Normand Desmarais.
“May I say here and now that you might hear the speakers as they tell their versions of their own stories that they may hit on areas that you might have heard already. Don’t worry about that, since I have discovered that what one persons says may not be heard the same way as when someone else says the same basic thing but in slightly different words or nuances. The important thing here is that the word gets out and is understood by as many as possible.
“I will probably ramble on for a while, and then there will be a Q&A session after wards. So with that said by the time this is over you will discover many things that you did not know. Most people go through life blissfully unaware of many important facts and secrets, and wonder why their life goes the way it does.
One famous Genearl once said to his men when demanding intellegence from his men and was asked why he needed it. His answer was ‘What I don’t know could get you killed’. They were not long in coming to him with as much information that they could gather. So let me begin. My subject today is about the drug and food industry.
