What would define us as Rotarians? U R A Rotarian if
1. The name Paul Harris reminds you of one of your uncles.
2. You feel under-dressed if you realize you're halfway through a meeting and you're not wearing a name badge.

4. You hear a bell ring and you automatically stand up. This is especially embarrassing at elevators!
5. Someone says to you, "Smile" and you start singing in response, "and the world smiles with you, sing a song!" This ruins the preacher's concentration during sermon time.
