Who Is Elissa? Who I am NOT!
Not Elissa, the Lebanese singer, not the 1877 Tall Ship Elissa moored in Galveston harbor, not a descendant of 1940s actor, Elissa Landi, not channeling the Phoenician princess called Dido by Virgil, I am a 21st century Elissa unique in my own way. Click here to see other Elissas with whom I have at least one characteristic in common - our name!.
This webpage is your link to many of my ideas, visions, plans, and dreams for American Mensa now that I have been elested to another 2-year term.

Mensa EventsThird Quarter of 2011
It has been a busy year. I thought I might find a part-time job to serve as another cash stream, but found nothing appealing. So I am continuing my freelance dissertation editing business and doing freelance proofreading. It seems I never leave my computer! I was grateful and pleased that I was elected to another 2-year term as American Mensa's chairman. Keeping us focused on growth and progress is my major goal for the next couple years. And to have fun doing so, of course!
Mensa International's website connects members all over the world - potentially 110,000+ cyperpals. If you are a Mensan reading this, check out the forums where Ms discuss everything under the sun. 2011's annual international meeting is in Sofia, Bulgaria, in October. EMAG in Paris during the first week of August was a blast despite all the challenges of finding out where groups were gathering and where the meetup restaurant was. But it was Paris! How could it not be wonderful!
