'disaster' is 8 letters. If only one of them was on the board, that would be a bingo, which gives an extra 50 points.

More likely they read "To Kill a Mockingbird". They taste in theater tends toward "Bye Bye Birdie", but that's another story. And for a horror flick, "The Mouse that Roared."

Having a meeting with another IT person in another team that supports my team.
If it was just the other individual and I. Things would be over in 30 minutes tops. Butttttt....
Boss wants to be part of the meeting. Wants to be "in" the discussion. Thoughts on how I can keep the meeting moving along so we cover the items we need to cover?
I already moved the big ticket item to last instead of first. Put that last on the agenda.

To be honest I'm not very good at meetings, and I tend to ask a lot questions sometimes, which derails the agenda. I don't mean to, I'm just not good at meetings.
I'm great left to my own devices, with a little bit of one on one.
However, I had to get good at certain kinds of meetings because I was often a team lead. If *I* control the direction of the meeting within the scope of updating other people on the progress of a project I do okay. Beyond that, it's hit or miss.
It's a skill I've never really mastered. Sorry, I'm one of the ones that's guilty of making them run over. For my part, I do everything I can to avoid them in the first place. 
Edit: It sounds like your boss is kind of like me, except harder to get rid of.

I tried that once and the team leader totally lost it.

You have a premeeting with the important person where you come to an agreement on how to solve the problem.
If you are already in agreement it's much quicker to guide the meeting to the desired result.
|
|
|
|
|
Right on the agenda, state how much time is allocated to each topic. Leave some slack time at the end of the meeting but have a reason for leaving after that. Unless someone doesn't want to reach the big ticket item, this should help keep things on track.
|
|
|
|
|
Have the meeting a half hour earlier than you tell the boss.

kind of funny but this actually has worked in the past

On a similar note… schedule the meeting you want with a guaranteed conflict with your boss. Invite the boss as optional.

I HATE this statement! no we won't discuss elephant turds behind anyones back. Either we get it hashed out so everyone is on the same page or we aren't grown adults and we shouldn't be working.
