Attendance: 29
Meeting Start: 9:59 and pie
Committees
Recruitment and Relations: We have 29! total in attendance and I apologize for not getting all of your names. Next week, I will gather up the remaining names necessary.
Movie: Maleorvs. A movie about a Greek demon that spews Latin and speaks English.
Office Resource: The office is still there and a scavenger hunt for the anime treasury has begun. By the end of this year, we will have a new TV cart, even if we have to steal one.
T-Shirt: Not active.
Trivia: Due to the transitive Joel property, the Joel at the meeting has trivia. His question is: What kind of trivia? Anti-Mike is the first to answer with “Sci Fi,” then “Damn!” as he realized his mistake.
Party: Forrest runs the party committee. Not technically active, but due to our limited funds, Forrest is going to be asking for donations and will continue to hound us with increasingly silly accents until we have enough to buy our pizzas and such. Because of reactions to Forrest being gay, Little John impressions are now a bap-able offense.
Discussion Group: The topic for the night is: Who should not be making or producing movies?
Constitution: Not active.
No Report: Willy Wonka hates New York because he was pulled over for doing 88mph in a 65mph area.
Officers Reports
Constable: Eric is the Constable. He is in charge of enforcing the constitution and rules he makes up. The weekly offense is: If you have friends that you did not bring to the meeting, you get bapped. Over the summer, he found that he could throw a malfunctioning dishwasher over 20 feet.
Com Officer: My name is Ashley. The Com Officer sends out the minutes and has general secretary duties. I’ve spent time in Peoria over the summer, working, and in the past week, Jon and I helped Joel move to DC.
Chief of Operations: Anti-Mike is the Chief of Operations. He is in charge of the website and news. We actually have a website again: www.psiphiclub.com! We also have an Amazon account again. For all your purchases, please visit: http://www.amazon.com/?_encoding=UTF8&tag=psph-20. For what you spend, we get a small percentage.
Grand Nagus: Jack is the Nagus. “Hi. I’m counting things. That’s pretty much all I do.” We now have access to the checking account again, but we have something more like $20-some, instead of the reported couple hundred. The Djibouti fund has $29 in change and around $50 in actual cash.
First Officer: The First Officer is in charge of committees that have no committee heads, but that doesn’t come up too often, so your main duty is to read off the different sections. Nominations will be held next week.
Captain: Adam is the Captain, and the Captain is the captain. He tries to guide the club in a meeting-like direction. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t.
Business
Old Business: Jon is not an officer. Elly is not here. And (some other word here) Rubber-because-Mike-is-allergic-to-latex monster zombie alien fest is still on the way.
New Business: We have a letter. The address was handwritten to us and it’s even sci fi related! It’s a book promotion, and if you’re interested, the website is www.killerworlds.com. (It’s a secure website, if you’re interested.)
Other Organizations
Anime: Anime starts next Friday at 6:30pm in Baker basement.
MCS: MCS starts this Friday at 5pm at the Student Center Cafeteria. They need a new faculty advisor and it may be Erich.
Order of Xeen: Order of Xeen will be playing Traveller this Sunday at 1pm at Erich and Ryan’s house. There may be a D&D campaign, but if you want to be put in contact with a GM or players, talk to Anti-Mike.
LAN: The LAN will occur on Saturday… somewhere. Maybe in the Harper/Wycoff lounge or foyer. They usually play DODA.
