Committee Reports

Pseudo-PianoComm

Ylena is being trained at BluebellComm, because we couldn't find "that drawer" where Jamie put the clipboard.

MovingThingsAroundComm

It is suggested that this committee be renamed the Society for Creative Rearrangement.

Moves happened. Someone should document this at some point.

MobComm

The long awaited Space-Crime Continuum order has been arrived, and aportioned out to the appropriate committees.

Fans of the male nipple will be pleased by recent MobComm purchases. Andy denies all involvement.

Mumbling about Rats (Vox Sciurorum)

John believes he has found another defective squirrel.

BING!

Old Business

Andy ran for the ASA about a decade ago on the platform "the Library needs more space." The Library is still running out of space, just like it was last week, and the week before, and the week before, and the week before...

Motion is made that the Society create a photographic record of our quest to find more places to put books, and have it published entitled "The Conquest of Space."

Jamie: "You need to make it clear that it is us being conquered by space, and not space being conquered by us."

ALGOL BING!

New Business

The sixth Harry Potter is coming out tonight!

"Are you a '90% of everything is crap' person or a '10% of everything doesn't suck' person?"

BING!

Future Business

There is an impromptu performance of the Philosopher's Drinking Song. "I drink therefore I am."

Motion to table the meeting because we've already had one this week passes 15-0-6+Spehn.

"Banana!" fails 3-4-9+Spehn.

Motion to make the previous motion un-lame passes by Skinnerial decree, and passes 19-0-7+Spehn.

Meeting adjourned, 1800 (-50) SST.

Respectfully submitted,

Kevin Riggle, Onseck
