Minutes to the 12/30/07 MDS Meeting
Oh, where to begin! Such an historic meeting for the MDS! So many charter members were present, members who have otherwise scattered to far off corners of the globe! Let it never be said that the sun shall set upon the MDS empire!
IN ATTENDANCE
Ruth, Davey, Jessica, Maggie, Dan, Liz, Irina, Jenny & Brian
RESOLUTIONS
- IT IS HEREBY RESOVLED that assorted and sundry MDS members Erin and the Remindifier shall receive the prestigious MDS Medal of the Slow Clap;
- IT IS HEREBY RESOVLED that Davey shall not be invited to the wedding due to the possibility that he is and/or will become pregnant;
- IT IS HEREBY RESOVLED that the President shall do some outside research regarding the Soviet response to Bulgakov’s works;
- IT IS HEREBY RESOVLED that the Remindifier shall never again utter the phrase, “Edible Panties”, lest she risk the removal of her MDS Medal of the Slow Clap;
- IT IS HEREBY RESOVLED that Jajah is BARRED from MDS meetings (no reason given);
- IT IS HEREBY RESOVLED that typos shall not be fixed in these minutes;
- IT IS HEREBY RESOVLED that these MDS meetings are actually a ploy to get the Secretary into therapy (note that no treatment has been forthcoming, so… take that, MDS!).
DON’T RUSH GENIUS -- THESE MINUTES ARE PREPARED WHEN THEY’RE DAMN GOOD & READY TO BE PREPARED
- The meeting begins once the Commencifier calls in at 4:37PM with the following proclamation: “Begin!”, and so we did;
- But before discussion of the book can start, there is much ooh’ing and ahh’ing regarding the President’s ring, and how she was “ambushed by love”, and all sorts of girly shit like that;
- Trying to still further hold onto the spotlight, the President announces that she has the dubious honour of having read the book in the original text, but no medal is awarded;
- Ruth announces that she has flip-flopped about the book;
- The Secretary makes the best pun ever at the meeting when he says that Behemoth is a sourpuss (it’s funny because Behemoth is an ass, and a giant cat -- see, funny!);
- Finally, a decent question is raised: Are actions caused, or just pre-ordained? Did the Devil kill Belioz or did he just know that Belioz would die?
- The only way to work with the Devil, and avoid getting killed or sent to Yalta, is to take his advice and sit low, advice that is actually quite prescient for a number of situations;
- Dr. Stravinsky, the doctor in the asylum seems like a stand-up chap, and the Secretary would like to see a lot more of him, and a lot less of that damn (darn?) cat;
- It is revealed that hotel “intimacy kits” include a whistle;
- The mood lightens around the table as the bartender provides candles for the table;
- And yet, sadly, this warm, gentle glow can do little stem the tide of demands for food from the group and the meeting is ADJOURNED at 6:00PM.
