: We're out of the short covering material,
boo.

Minutes read.
Motion: Amend the minutes to explain what Jade and Jay were doing when they weren't there. Passes 13-5-3+Spehn.
BING!
The bings are unusually painful in the Star Chamber.
Motion: That hurts! Do it again! Fails 3-ton-something+John's camera+Spehn. And of course there's a bing anyway...
Pseudo-Bluebellcomm: I don't see a stack of books here, for the first time in a while.

Pseudo-Bluebellcomm: We're out of the short covering material,
boo.
Jadecomm: Jade was at the Steer Roast last week. Pictures are demanded.
Alohalenscomm: We need 65 interesting things between now and tomorrow to use up the flash card.
Pianocomm: Katherine Reid is a new prentice, yay.
Jourcomm: We're passing off duties to Andrew, mostly. The Skinner Rant is still... in progress. ``Oh, duh!'' in big letters is suggested.
BING!
The Jadecomm pictures arrive and are passed around. The meeting grinds to a small halt. Natasha was there at the Steer Roast, and a picture copy is demanded for our records.
John's aerosol can from last week didn't have any CFC's, but it makes the floor slippery so it's still dangerous.
Motion: Declare Jade's Bad Idea was a Good Idea. Passes 18-0-4+Spehn. (This was her sewing project for the Steer Roast.)
BING!
