There was a [illegible] of Gattaca.

The ceiling is still dripping.

We're still running out of space, but now we have charts!

Jamie goes, with screwdriver, to storm door to see if he can open it up and replace the battery. (Screwdriver idea from WDS...)

BING!

New Business

M: have skinner replace her neck. Fails by skinnerial decree (and lack of second). "A preemptive failure."

Computer center?

Pause: turn gavel block over (to hide what Jamie noted looked like bird shit but was actually Tech bits from J).

BING!
