Going miscellaneous

Meetupspeakers shall never lack a subject matter!
There we have our first commitment.
Thus, with so much that has happened lately,
beware not, my friends for we shan't be silenced
by the overwhelming assortment
of things to be spoken of
(as if it were possible).
Thereupon, be prepared my faithful companions,
'cause tonight,
facing the mysterious and unknown,
we ought to have a lot of fun.

*and for the sake of not forgetting:
happy halloween!
