JFC went to a meeting today, and discovered, again, that his chair was plugged in.
We lost one keyholder, and will be losing another next month.
Reports that the slinkies have forgiven us for mutilating their child and are storing high-quality chocolate inside. It could be a trap.
JFC reveals that he left the chocolate as an offering to the Slinky-people. JM suggests that this only ensures that it is a trap.
Have not updated the door locks within the promised 2 week time line, and are apparently off by a factor of at least 10. Andrew Menard still can not get into the Library.
The boxes are stacking higher and higher, despite Hasslecomm's valiant efforts.
BING!
Discussion of whether retroactively doing interpretive dance if a motion is retroactively passed asking for Kat to do interpretive dance when reading the minutes is appropriate, photoshopped pictures of Jamie doing interpretive dance, etc.
