Greetings and welcome.
Thank you so much for coming today.
This is our first World Summit since the revolution, where we ascended to power, replacing our male counterparts.
Its been a busy few years, yeah? To say the least.
Ah, what's on the agenda? Yes, first of all, the economy.
Mmm hmm, ah, well, actually, everything's great here.
Yup, us too.
We're cool.
Us, too.
Same here.
Jill? Ah, yup.
All good here.
No problems.
Great, okay, environment.
Is anyone having any environmental problems, anyone? - No.
-No.
- No.
-No.
Nope.
- None.
-Ditto.
And what about um conflict? Social justice, any war, any hardship, conflict in their continents? No, we just talk it out these days.
Yeah, we find it's very helpful to write things down and then sleep on it, see if we feel the same way the next day.
That's a great idea.
Yeah, us too.
There was some conflict with my California and Jill's old South America, and then we just realized we were angry at ourselves, weren't we? Yeah, I mean, I was projecting all my shit onto this one.
And then I realized it was just my stuff onto her.
So, I'm so happy that we're cool now.
Yes, very cool.
Well, I think that's it, ladies.
Everything seems to be in order.
- Yeah.
-Okay.
I can't believe that this Summit used to take days.
Have a good one today, eh, guys? - Hi.
-Oh, hey.
Hey, I was told I could join one of the running groups going out today? Oh, yeah, yeah.
For sure.
Uh, we're running from here along Lakeshore for about 5K, then up to Queen and Jones, then along Queen for another 5K.
Ooh.
And then down Bathurst to Front Street, and right back here.
Oh, wow.
Cool.
What about you guys? Oh, we're running from a secret sense of failure, loveless marriage, overwhelming fear of intimacy, and general dissatisfaction with everyday life.
How about the law, is that? - Welcome aboard.
- Thanks.
Well, this month's read was just astonishing.
I hope we can do this book justice in an hour.
Susan, how did you like the book? Oh, I liked it on Facebook and Instagram.
Uh Ruth, what did you think of the central character? Oh, she was extraordinary.
Wasn't she? Yeah.
You know, just the way, like, her chin was just, you know, like on her hand.
And she was just, you know, like, like, staring right down the barrel of the camera.
I just really connected with her.
That's the author, Einstein.
Oh, oh, she's not Einstein she's Ruth.
Yeah.
Okay, um ah, what stood out for me, was the symbolism of the lilacs in Sasha's life.
Her-her struggle, her um, her inner garden of growth, if you will.
Anything pop out for you guys? The lettering did and it popped right out and when you rub your hand across it, it's raised so it's like braille, but it's, like, for people with eyes.
Hilary? Mmm hmm? Blind people have eyes.
For real? Yeah, I mean, they're smaller, but they have them.
Mmm hmm, like, just a little bit smaller.
Okay.
Okay, has anyone read the book? This book.
Anyone? - No.
-No.
Okay.
Well, the author is going to be here in fifteen minutes so, I guess, once again, I'll do all the talking.
- Okay.
-Okay.
Okay, but-but deaf people, they have ears, or are those not ears? No, no, no, they have ears, they're just vestigial.
Okay, you are all fired.
What is vesit-vesigial? It's the place where you leave your coats and your hats, and your boots and stuff at school.
Oh, like a portmanteau.
Yeah.
Sorry about this.
He gets really randy whenever I take him out for a walk.

Yeah.
Okay, come on! Time to go.
