Committees
Recruitment and Relations: Bring new people. Dan is back.
Movie: Because the internet is dead at his apartment, there is no bad movie. Went to go see Dragonball. It was dumb, but enjoyable. Nova has an amazing soda selection.
Office Resource: Office is still there. There are new chairs in there, thanks to Fluffy and Collier. Found the box of pencils he bought two months ago; left in office for gaming needs.
Trivia: Jon: Name one character on Collier’s shirt? Jack: SPIDERMAN! A-Mike: And without even looking.
Party: Initiated contact with Dave about reunion next year. Will be working on that. Has $14 so far. Has since doubled his money; now a third of what we need. Party will be in the same place, unless someone gives him a new idea.
Discussion Group: Didn’t happen. Topic tonight: How do you kill Jon while he’s awake?
Fundraising: New rules: You can find a weird item and pay half value to the club to enter it into the competition.
No Report: Alex no longer has his left big toenail. Discussed how many engines we should put on a rocket full of thermite: 5 is the appropriate number? He is going to be making model rockets?

Officers Reports
Chief of Operations: Is getting viruses. Getting a feather branded. Jack is offering to brand him. Hates Action Script 3.

Grand Nagus: Has a $7 cigar he needs to smoke.
First Officer: Has something to report. Got the internship. Going out to DC and may or may not get paid. Put Psi Phi on her resume, and attributes that to getting the internship.
Captain: Week has been busy. Has lost both of his big toenails three times. No ingrown toenails anymore. Has been playing Diablo 2, thanks to his brother’s influence. As an Amazon, does no damage with spear; all damage comes from the lightning bolts that shoot from it.

Quotes
A-Mike: Do they get launched into the sun? Or sent to another planet where they get resurrected…?
Jon: You have to pay extra for that.

Forrest: It’s in all caps. I figured it needed to be in a robot voice.

Ashley: You looked something up?
A-Mike: …yeah.

Dan: You have found something I’m not willing to do.
Jack: Hey Dan, sex with a panda?
Dan: …is she cute?
Jack: I’m going to say yes, but any way you tried to have sex with a panda, it would probably kill you.
Dan: On the other hand, I could be like one of five people to have sex with a panda. But I don’t know what China’s like.

Adam: You should stop going to porn sites.
Jon: His real problem is that he’s watching viral videos.
Jack: No. He went to the deepest core of the internet and sucked on it.
Jon: Don’t lick the internet.

A-Mike: I watched it this week!
Ashley: And that’s the most exciting part of your day. Can we move on?

Adam: Grenades?

Got candy from the nursing teacher to calm the female rage. Adam ate all the Peeps. Ate 20 peeps. Can only open the peeps 10 at a time. His tongue is bubble gum pink. The Williams cafeteria is much like Cheers: Everyone knows his name and when he complains, shit gets done.
