Simkus Vbah: Greetings
Psi Phi Org: There we go.
Citadel de EK: Hello!
Psi Phi Org: Robert and I were discussing T-shirt ideas combining previous designs.
Psi Phi Org: e.g. Hug me, Psi Phi. There is a theory that this has already happened.
Psi Phi Org: Or: Better Geek than Natural Stupidity.
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Simkus Vbah: Psi Phi: A Better Sci-Fi Geek's Last Best Hope
Citadel de EK: SirJoelI and Xeen the Paladin are online. Perhaps they could be invited to chat as well.
Psi Phi Org: Please do.
Psi Phi Org: I didn't have them on my list.
Psi Phi Org: Do now, though. :-)
Xeen the Paladin has entered the room.
Citadel de EK: I didn't know I could. I just did.
SirJoelI has entered the room.
Psi Phi Org: Hi there!
SirJoelI: Hello
Simkus Vbah: Greetings
Xeen the Paladin: Avast ye all
Psi Phi Org: At the moment, we're discussing T-shirt designs for the Reunion.
Psi Phi Org: We will also be going on to other topics.
Xeen the Paladin: What ideas have been had?
Psi Phi Org: Combining previous ideas:
Psi Phi Org: Hug me, Psi Phi. There is a theory that this has already happened.
Psi Phi Org: Better Geek than Natural Stupidity
Citadel de EK: Switching to Elizabeth instead of Kristen for this chat room now...
Psi Phi Org: ok
Citadel de EK: Heylo!
Psi Phi Org: Hi.
Xeen the Paladin: Velkommen
Xeen the Paladin: I am also proxy representing Jon
Citadel de EK: Cool
Citadel de EK: *cracks up at tshirt ideas*
Psi Phi Org: Any other fun ideas?
Simkus Vbah: front: One of the ideas above. back: Psi Phi: It's Continuing Mission...
Citadel de EK: Dave, do you have the list of all the t-shirt slogans we've used?
Psi Phi Org: Science Fiction's Last Best Hope, The Douglas Adams shirt, Better Geek than Greek, Hug me I'm a Sci-fi Geek, Artificial Intelligence.
Psi Phi Org: Plus this year's two designs, <geek> </geek>, and The scores are in.
SirJoelI: "Psi Phi: ten years and we still can't come up with a decent slogan."
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Xeen the Paladin: Mebbe that on the front, and on the back "To seek out new nerds and new forms of geekinesss"
Simkus Vbah: :-)
Psi Phi Org: To seek out new nerds and new geekilizations
Xeen the Paladin: Unless there's something more clever that rhymes with civilization
Psi Phi Org: Keeps the format better.
Xeen the Paladin: yeah that
SirJoelI: "No Report"
Simkus Vbah: that works as well
Xeen the Paladin: Spiffy and keen even
Simkus Vbah: I knew I should have taken out a trademark on "No Report"
Psi Phi Org: Robert Ray, as first First Officer, started the tradition.
SirJoelI: ah...but then we couldn't have a committee devoted to it
Simkus Vbah: true, so I guess it is ok then.
Xeen the Paladin: We should copyright 'no comment' and have politicians pay us a dime every time they say it
Xeen the Paladin: we could double our funds in a week
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Simkus Vbah: espcially since this is an election year
Xeen the Paladin: oooh, *devilish laugh*
Citadel de EK: bwahhhahaha
Psi Phi Org: Of course, that's more of something for the Fundraising Committee than the Reunion Committee. :-)
Psi Phi Org: Oh, wait, we disbanded that committee years ago.
SirJoelI: no...we just made it permanently a one-man committee
Simkus Vbah: I don't think that we need a fundraising committee, just a Davidh :-)
SirJoelI: *bows to Dave*
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Xeen the Paladin: all hail the david king,
Xeen the Paladin: bringer of swag
Psi Phi Org: Now, now, loyal subjects. You should stop with all the boasting about Us and get back to the planning of the Reunion. :-)
Simkus Vbah: <front> Psi Phi: Promoting science fiction, fantasy, and related genres on the Bradley campus... <back> ...and all worlds beyond.
Psi Phi Org: Ooh, that's a nice one.
Simkus Vbah: straight from our constitution
Psi Phi Org: Might sound a little better on a shirt with "at Bradley" instead of "on the Bradley campus".
Simkus Vbah: yeah.
Xeen the Paladin: Brevity is the soul of wit
Xeen the Paladin: -Bill Shakespeare
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Simkus Vbah: :-)
Simkus Vbah: what else can we work on planning for the reunion dave?
Simkus Vbah: ohhhh......
Psi Phi Org: That's how "Better Geek than Greek" was born. One idea suggested (I think by Carl) was "It's better to be geek than to be greek", and I shortened it up a bit.
Psi Phi Org: Talent show?
SirJoelI: wow. that sounds like a terrible idea
Simkus Vbah: I have no talent so I think it would be perfect for me. :-)
SirJoelI: *imagines a massive Psi Phi karaoke party, shudders*
Simkus Vbah: Phi Phi Idol!
Xeen the Paladin: Ick
Citadel de EK: pin the ego on William SHatner!
Xeen the Paladin: something that doesn't involve heavy lifting
Psi Phi Org: Kevin and I were thinking of, those people who play an instrument or sing could do so; those people who have written stuff (e.g. Lyz) could read an excerpt; those people who like to act or improvize could perform on stage; etc.
SirJoelI: and Kenny could see how many people he could get hit by simultaneously for making horrible puns
Psi Phi Org: Yes! Stand-up comedy!
Xeen the Paladin: Those with awesome Melee skills could set up a Gamecube a whomp unsuspecting bystanders
Psi Phi Org: Or duck-and-cover comedy if fresh tomatoes are allowed in the audience.
Xeen the Paladin: mebbe?
Xeen the Paladin: hah, oh hahaha, funny
Xeen the Paladin: Heck, I'd do stand up, I just have no original material
Simkus Vbah: I have poetry I could read, so that is not biggie for me.
SirJoelI: I could show off my map(s), but that's about it.
Citadel de EK: heeheehe
Citadel de EK: I could show jewelry and art!
Psi Phi Org: Of course participation would be optional.
Psi Phi Org: Ryan had the though of doing "Whose Line is it Anyway?: Psi Phi Edition".
Xeen the Paladin: Hmmm, fun
Psi Phi Org: Hoedown! o/` Ohhhh, eidi-diedi-diedi-diedi-diedi-diedi-do! o/`
Psi Phi Org: Or, wait, that's Irish Drinking Song.
Xeen the Paladin: Speaking of which, booze?
Psi Phi Org: No.
Xeen the Paladin: didn't think so
Psi Phi Org: If we hold it on campus, that's not allowed. And if we hold it off campus, I still don't think it's a good idea.
Xeen the Paladin: Agreed
SirJoelI: yes...room full of drunken geeks = dangerous
Xeen the Paladin: Just wanted to be sure about that
Psi Phi Org: Re: jewelry and art, definitely.
Citadel de EK: I'm leaving now - Kristen will be back shortly
Xeen the Paladin: Byebye *hugs*
Psi Phi Org: ok
Citadel de EK: She suggests hiring Barbecue Kitten (improv group)
Xeen the Paladin: que?
Simkus Vbah has left the room.
Simkus Vbah has entered the room.
Psi Phi Org: There you are.
Simkus Vbah: *cheers* it wouldn't log me off. :-(
Psi Phi Org: Next idea: Psi Phi scrapbook.
Simkus Vbah: I wish I had some pictures from my time at Bradley, but I do like the idea.
Psi Phi Org: Collecting pictures from Psi Phi alumni (and current members) from Psi Phi events, or just of Psi Phi people.
Xeen the Paladin: Maybe flyers from psi phi activities
Psi Phi Org: Also collecting stories. Funniest Psi Phi moment, your first Psi Phi experience, etc.
Psi Phi Org: I do have some very old Psi Phi brochures.
Psi Phi Org: I don't remember where I saw them but I noticed them a couple weeks ago.
Xeen the Paladin: sounds good
Psi Phi Org: I know Psi Phi was mentioned at least once in the Bradley Scout, our first semester. Don't know if it was ever mentioned again.
Psi Phi Org: I wonder if I still have that Scout anywhere.
Xeen the Paladin: Does the Scout keep archives?
Simkus Vbah: I prolly have a copy of it somewhere at home, not certain though
Psi Phi Org: I was thinking about that. If so, maybe they would give us one, or at least let us make a copy of the page.
Simkus Vbah: hmm, if I go idle/disconnect again it is because we are having a storm here. my lights just flickered.
Psi Phi Org: Ah, ok.
Xeen the Paladin: Sweet!
Xeen the Paladin: <--- likes storms
Xeen the Paladin: Shall I check in at the Scout on Monday?
Psi Phi Org: Yeah, that would be great.
Psi Phi Org: Lemme find the date/issue number...
Xeen the Paladin: Jon wishes me to inform you that his screenname is Encased Shadow
Citadel de EK: <--Kristen
Citadel de EK: Doesn't the Scout have archives online? Or do they not go back that far?
Xeen the Paladin: I dunno
Psi Phi Org: It was in the Fusion section from March 31, 1995.
Citadel de EK: http://www.bradley.edu/campusorg/bbqkitten/
Xeen the Paladin: woww, how ancient
Citadel de EK: The BBQ Kittens improv group webpage. They're quite funny.
Psi Phi Org: :-)
LordKinak has entered the room.
LordKinak: j0
Citadel de EK: Hello!
Simkus Vbah: Greetings.
LordKinak: Lyz may be on shortly.
Citadel de EK: Yay!
Xeen the Paladin: hello, who be thou?
Elf Tao has entered the room.
Elf Tao: hey all
LordKinak: I am Landon, ex-constable and destroyer of worlds.
Simkus Vbah: Hey Liz
Xeen the Paladin: Hi Lyz
Psi Phi Org: Hi guys!
Simkus Vbah: we are getting a large group going.
Xeen the Paladin: Hello Landon, I have heard much of you
Psi Phi Org: We were talking about the Psi Phi Scrapbook idea.
Elf Tao: hm, fill me in?
Xeen the Paladin: With pictures and Scout articles
Xeen the Paladin: and other goodness
Elf Tao: from the last 10 years?
Citadel de EK: And memories of Psi Phi
Psi Phi Org: Yeah, collecting any photographs that alumni may have.
Elf Tao: and then photocopying it and passing them out?
Psi Phi Org: Yes. Maybe making a nicely-bound one if we have enough stuff, and depending on cost.
Elf Tao: hm, that'd be pretty neat.
LordKinak: OOooooOOOOOoooo
Xeen the Paladin: Keep it for posterity
Xeen the Paladin: Till one of us swipes it then hands it down for generations
Psi Phi Org: BTW, does anyone here know who zander019 or jaghjech are? Are they Psi Phi members?
Elf Tao: I think it's a good idea...lemme check...
Xeen the Paladin: Till it becomes a new religion dedicated to us
Xeen the Paladin: nope, don't know them
Simkus Vbah: bad shirt idea: <front> What are we going to do tomorrow tonight Brain? <back> Same thing we do every night Pinky, try to take over Psi Phi
Elf Tao: jag is kevin zepp
Psi Phi Org: I have them in my Psi Phi group, but that is a mix of Psi Phi club members and psiphi.org people.
Elf Tao: I dunno about the other one
Elf Tao: very bad shirt idea.
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Psi Phi Org: I really need to separate them out.
Simkus Vbah: 8-)
Xeen the Paladin: meh, we can afford copywright lawsuits, right?
Elf Tao: oh sure...
Citadel de EK: But then we won't be able to afford the party!
Elf Tao: lol
Simkus Vbah: of course we can, we have a Davidh
Psi Phi Org: I'm not a bottomless purse, you know.
Citadel de EK: What? We've been lied to?
LordKinak: Noooo! My world is crumbling around me!
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Elf Tao: ....sigh....
Citadel de EK: David, do you have a list of items we were going to discuss? Like t-shirt ideas, scrapbook, that sort of thing?
Elf Tao: i think he's saving a chat transcript.
Citadel de EK: It might be useful, though, for a broad list so we can think of ideas relating to them.
Psi Phi Org: An unordered list.
Citadel de EK: Order? I scoff at order! Chaos reigns in my wake!
Psi Phi Org: * Starting earlier in the day with stuff of general interest; stuff later in the day gets more Psi Phi-specific.
Psi Phi Org: Trivia contest?
Psi Phi Org: Someone take pictures and/or video at the event for posterity
Elf Tao: definitely.
Psi Phi Org: Costume contest?
Xeen the Paladin: I'll photograph
Psi Phi Org: Nice pin for attendees.
Citadel de EK: I'd recommend multiple photographers.
Citadel de EK: The round kind of pin, or the shaped kind?
Xeen the Paladin: I have only one me to volunteer
Elf Tao: like everyone who owns a camera?
Citadel de EK: Well, round is a shape, but whatever.
Citadel de EK: Maybe get some disposable cameras and put them on tables. If anyone wants to take a picture, they can grab one of the cameras, take the picture, and then put it back.
Psi Phi Org: Not a button. Maybe a custom shape, depending on how much extra that costs. Or maybe just a square or another regular shape.
Elf Tao: ek - good idea there.
Citadel de EK: Also, will the trivia contest be Psi Phi, sci-fi/fantasy, or general? Or all of the above?
Citadel de EK: And thanks :-)
Psi Phi Org: Probably a mix of all. We can have different categories.
Xeen the Paladin: and will there be pie?
Psi Phi Org: Psi Phi history, Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, current events.
Psi Phi Org: If Kenny is there, there will be pi.
Citadel de EK: Star Wars, Harry Potter?
LordKinak: Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!
Citadel de EK: If there is pie, there will be pi as well.
Psi Phi Org: There will also be ie. As in "Ieeeeeeeee!"
Elf Tao: how about "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH"?
Psi Phi Org: Which will be someone screaming at Kenny for the pi joke :-)
SirJoelI: and much bappage
LordKinak: Indeed.
Citadel de EK: Must protect Kenny from bappage!
SirJoelI: may have to buy some more Psi Phi bappers for that
Xeen the Paladin: mmmm, psi phi pi
Elf Tao: it's good to know that psi phi's efficiency changes none online.
Citadel de EK: Unless it's a truly awful joke. Then bappage will be okay.
Citadel de EK: :-)
Psi Phi Org: I'd like to remind you all that the bap-free zone DOES continue throughout the entirety of the reunion. :-)
Xeen the Paladin: I have several bappers
Simkus Vbah: <-- doesn't get the kenny/pi jokes, but laughs anyways
Citadel de EK: Kenny=one of the world's worst punsters
Psi Phi Org: And a math nerd.
Psi Phi Org: Which means he's always going off on tangents.
Xeen the Paladin: pi was an, 'interesting' movie
Xeen the Paladin: At least he comes full circle in the end
Elf Tao: ok, david, I can hear Joel freaking out in the other room. cut it ou.
Elf Tao: out.
Psi Phi Org: Some of his jokes are obtuse, but those who say they're acute may be right.
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Citadel de EK: it's a sine of how good he is
SirJoelI: right. that will be enough of that
Elf Tao: STOP STOP STOP!
LordKinak: Why do I feel like God is punnishing me.
Citadel de EK: Aww :-(
Elf Tao: my whole house is dying!!!!!
Xeen the Paladin: we have to draw the line somewhere
Citadel de EK: It's just like being at a Psi Phi meeting!
Xeen the Paladin: with no gavel of evil, yay!
Psi Phi Org: But without any pretense of order.
Elf Tao: when I was captain, there was no gavel. I needed no gavel!
SirJoelI: There was pretense of order?
Citadel de EK: Damn straight!
Citadel de EK: ::hates evil gavel::
SirJoelI: And when I was captain there would have been order if someone hadn't forbidden me to initiate targetted murders
Xeen the Paladin: <--- was this close to ganking the gavel and hiding it forever
Psi Phi Org: Ganking?
Xeen the Paladin: | | <-- that close
Psi Phi Org: Mayhaps you mean "yoinking"?
Simkus Vbah: When I was First officer there wasn't a gavel either.
LordKinak: Much like Yoinking.
LordKinak: But more so.
Xeen the Paladin: Gank is less socially acceptable
Citadel de EK: May I have permission to post the punny bits of this on my lj?
Psi Phi Org: When I was Chief, there was.
Psi Phi Org: You may use mine.
Elf Tao: ja
Xeen the Paladin: permission granted
Simkus Vbah: You have been Chief since the beginning
Psi Phi Org: Well, yes...
Psi Phi Org: And at during at least a portion of that time, there was a gavel. :-)
Simkus Vbah: It has all happened when you were Chief
Citadel de EK: Just because there was one then doesn't mean there should be.
Psi Phi Org: Except for Spring 1997.
SirJoelI: Right...I've had enough of this craziness. I'm going to go play with my pet fire daemon now.
SirJoelI: See you people later
Xeen the Paladin: bye
LordKinak: Damn it Terrax!
Simkus Vbah: bye
Psi Phi Org: Toodles.
Elf Tao: bye
Elf Tao: ?
SirJoelI has left the room.
rwoods81 has entered the room.
Elf Tao: hi ryan
Psi Phi Org: Hey there!
rwoods81: Hi
Xeen the Paladin: ello
Simkus Vbah: Greetings
Citadel de EK: Wow. A former captain leaves, a current captain enters.
Psi Phi Org: Balance must be maintained.
LordKinak: Guten Tag!
Xeen the Paladin: creepy, they are one and the same
LordKinak: Never say that again.
Elf Tao: hell no! I live with one!
Citadel de EK: Or not.
rwoods81: Which capatain left?
LordKinak: Anti-Joel.
Psi Phi Org: Does Joelish have AIM?
Elf Tao: yes
Elf Tao: he's not online
Psi Phi Org: ok
Elf Tao: i need to stuff some shells...brb in a few
Psi Phi Org: ok
LordKinak: Mmmmm... stuffed shells...
Psi Phi Org: Mmmm... shelled stuff...
Citadel de EK: Board games might be a good idea. Trivial Pursuit, Taboo, Outburst...
Xeen the Paladin: Munchkin
Psi Phi Org: Ryan, did you find out anything else about what rooms are available which weekends?
LordKinak: Fluxx, Munchkin.
Xeen the Paladin: Star Munchkin
LordKinak: Munchkin Fu.
Xeen the Paladin: I don't have that one
Psi Phi Org: We could just fill out a bunch of requests and submit them to see which ones get rejected.
rwoods81: I haven't checked since the last meeting.
Simkus Vbah: I have the Lord of the Rings editions of Risk, Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit, and Chess, as well as a Harry Potter Chess Set
Psi Phi Org: ok
rwoods81: That would probably work best.
Psi Phi Org: I have Simpsons Chess and LOTR Monopoly.
Psi Phi Org: And SW Monopoly and the Buffy board game.
rwoods81: I have the Star Trek 25th Anniversary Trivia Game
LordKinak: Lyz says she has something to say and that you can't leave until she gets back.
Simkus Vbah: I ahve Simpsons Chess, in Phoenix though
Psi Phi Org: And Star Trek Uno.
Simkus Vbah: I have 2 Star Trek Board Games as well (no clue how to play them)
LordKinak: We have Hero Quest, the expansion, and Buck Rodgers, battle for the 25th Century!
LordKinak: Ooo, and Solarquest.
LordKinak: Solarquest is actually kinda good.
Psi Phi Org: Also I have many Harry Potter and Star Wars Lego projects, and Star Wars Puzz3D's, which could be used to decorate the room.
Elf Tao: apples to apples
Elf Tao: my thought:
LordKinak: Also a great game.
Elf Tao: I'd love to have a chance to - without the pressure of "activities" - sit down and chat with some of the people I've never met (like rob) and/or pepople I haven't seen in a long time
Elf Tao: that's my thought - so if we could have a loungey area or go to one world or somesuch.
Psi Phi Org: That would be a good idea.
Citadel de EK: I think Legos and puzzles might be good for things like that as well--you could have stuff to fiddle with but no obligations like in a game.
Simkus Vbah: That is a very good idea. I was only there for the first year and know very few people
rwoods81: Maybe have a lounge area with the games available.
Psi Phi Org: That may work with the idea Ryan had of getting two rooms for different events. e.g. if we got one of the ballrooms and the alumni dining room, we could have activities in one and a lounge in the other.
Elf Tao: oh, that's very cool.
Citadel de EK: Name-tags would be a good idea.
Elf Tao: I love legos!
Elf Tao: nametags I think should be a must.
Citadel de EK: Maybe have a most creatively decorated nametag contest :-)
Elf Tao: art people.
Citadel de EK: (while still being legible)
Simkus Vbah: yeah, art people
Psi Phi Org: Include name, years, and positions.
Citadel de EK: Hey, I take offense to that! English major all the way!
Citadel de EK: Wow. Giant nametags.
Simkus Vbah: Education Major.
Xeen the Paladin: Engineer
Psi Phi Org: Maybe have them pre-printed?
rwoods81: You want to make money, Marketing to the major to go for
Simkus Vbah: I can get written statements from my students that I can't draw.
Citadel de EK: Was that a sentence, Ryan?
Elf Tao: MUSICIAN! most worthless degree ever!
Simkus Vbah: I like pre-printed
LordKinak: Legible, I'm doomed.
Elf Tao: I like preprinted.
Psi Phi Org: "You want to make money, Marketing [is] the major to for"
LordKinak: Computer Science. Of DOOM!
rwoods81: Sort of, I'm also talking to my roomate and playing Soul Calliber II at the same time.
Citadel de EK: to for what?
LordKinak: I think that should be a semi-colon.
Xeen the Paladin: I'll just use a Sharpie to put a big X on my forehead
LordKinak: That's doable.
Elf Tao: yay soul calibur II!
Psi Phi Org: Oops, pretend I actually quoted Ryan except for the "is". :-)
rwoods81: My roomie is a music major
Elf Tao: that's right, I freaked him out in Connie one day last quarter.
rwoods81: Yes you did:-D
Elf Tao: anyway - off topic, guys
Xeen the Paladin: Soul Caliber II is great fun
rwoods81: I suck at it
Elf Tao: it would be good ot have a time that everyone could be there and introduce, say who they are and what they majored in and what they're doing now, etc.
Elf Tao: someone once mentioned having a meeting - I think that's a great idea
Psi Phi Org: That was me.
rwoods81: We could save that for the dinner when everyone is there.
Elf Tao: a special occasion meeting, not really so much to accomplish anything but to just get everyone in the same place with some sort of organization
Citadel de EK: Yeah, a meeting would be essential.
Elf Tao: I think that would work - a dinner meeting!
Psi Phi Org: We could have Officer's Reports, then everybody who was Captain would give a report, etc.
Citadel de EK: Provided the officers don't talk with their mouths full!
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Simkus Vbah: hmm, but my mouth is always full. :-)
Simkus Vbah: usually just have my foot in there
Psi Phi Org: Tongue, teeth, and air don't count.
Elf Tao: I think it'd be neat just to give everyone a chance to talk if they wanted to
Elf Tao: (rob, ditto)
Elf Tao: how about reeds?
Psi Phi Org: Only if they fill your mouth.
Psi Phi Org: Which I suspect most wouldn't.
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Elf Tao: contras. big freaking contra reeds....
Elf Tao: anyway, sorry bout that.
Simkus Vbah: that will fill a mouth
Citadel de EK: I like Lyz's idea
Psi Phi Org: Are you contrapositive about that?
Citadel de EK: Good thing Joel's not here anymore
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Citadel de EK: And the constable will have to sit next to the maximum pun offenders, I think
Citadel de EK: So between David and Kenny
Citadel de EK: probably
Elf Tao: hwo's con now?
rwoods81: Kevin
Simkus Vbah: you would probably have an easier time controlling Kenny than David
Citadel de EK: Have you ever met Kenny?
Simkus Vbah: Nope
Elf Tao: there's the problem.
Xeen the Paladin: Should we acquire additional constables? just in case? We can give them red shirts and phasors
Simkus Vbah: but I know David
Psi Phi Org: He's worse than me. I look up to Kenny where puns are concerned.
Citadel de EK: And then, of course, they compete. The last pun is the winner
Elf Tao: ouch.
Xeen the Paladin: Hmm, I do that sometimes
Citadel de EK: Don't give the constables red shirts!
Simkus Vbah: and the rest of us lose?
Citadel de EK: Always. But it's so much fun.
Psi Phi Org: No, the rest of you sit back and enjoy the show!
Psi Phi Org: I think Kenny should get up on stage and sing Simpsons showtunes.
Elf Tao: and why do you think that, David?
Simkus Vbah: I couldn't jsut sit back and enjoy a pun show, I would have to heckle the contestants
Elf Tao: <no wonder this thing is *still* going on>
Citadel de EK: Well, of course!
Citadel de EK: Heckling's the best part!
Psi Phi Org: Because he knows all of them by heart without a lyrics sheet.
Citadel de EK: That's why everyone loves Statler and Waldorf
Psi Phi Org: Muppets balcony guys, right?
Simkus Vbah: who?
Citadel de EK: yep
Simkus Vbah: oh, yeha, duh!
Citadel de EK: Is there a topic we should be getting back to, David?
Psi Phi Org: Yes, the consistency of pi.
Psi Phi Org: Or possibly the reunion.
Simkus Vbah: Chocolate
LordKinak: We saw an action figure for one of those hecklers.
LordKinak: Just thought everyone needed to know.
Psi Phi Org: :-)
LordKinak: Defenitely chocolate.
Citadel de EK: Just one?
Citadel de EK: Muppets made of chocolate!
Psi Phi Org: ooh
LordKinak: Yup. Came with vegetables, though.
Xeen the Paladin: I like pecan
LordKinak: The muppet, not the pi.
Citadel de EK: Oh, to throw
Psi Phi Org: Harry Potter's chocolate (Kermit the) Frog.
Elf Tao: I make a mean pecan pie.
Citadel de EK: It tells nasty stories about you behind your back.
Simkus Vbah: ohh, can you send one to me?
Citadel de EK: :-)
Elf Tao: I can probably get home a day or two before the reunion and make one to bring?
Xeen the Paladin: Hmmm, pie
Psi Phi Org: Mmmm, forbidden donut.
Xeen the Paladin: Mmmmm, open faced club sandwich
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Citadel de EK: Perhaps there could be a pre-reunion baking party where people make pies and cookies and brownies
Citadel de EK: But only if we're not in the Student Center
Psi Phi Org: Right... food in there supposedly has to be catered.
rwoods81: Liz could sneak it by.
Elf Tao: oh come on, like I'M going to have problems with that.
Citadel de EK: :-) Behold the power of Lyz
Psi Phi Org: She's even more powerful than cheese!
Simkus Vbah: so we have the pre-reunion baking party at David's place
Citadel de EK: David?
Psi Phi Org: Huh? What?
Citadel de EK: What do you think of this?
Elf Tao: how about my parents' house? it's close.
Elf Tao: as long as it wasn't late.
Psi Phi Org: Other than the "at David's place", it sounds good. :-)
Simkus Vbah: :-)
Citadel de EK: And Crispix mix and Puppy chow and worm guts...
Elf Tao: oooooooooooooo
Xeen the Paladin: I could make fallout cake, I'll need glowsticks
Psi Phi Org: Oh, somebody should perhaps check with Habitat for Humanity to see if they're doing the Shack-a-Thon early again next semester. If so, then maybe we could try to hold the reunion the weekend before or after that...
Psi Phi Org: ...in case anyone wants to stay or come early for that.
Elf Tao: eh, im game
Simkus Vbah: I would, except that would be a lot of my sick/personal days to use up.
LordKinak: Well, off to set the table.
LordKinak: Byeeeee.
LordKinak has left the room.
Psi Phi Org: It would only work if they don't go back to the more usual November timeframe.
Psi Phi Org: bye (too late)
Xeen the Paladin has left the room.
Psi Phi Org: bye to you, too (too late)
Simkus Vbah: I'm still here
Psi Phi Org: That's good. :-)
rwoods81: Afraid I need to leave too, remember party at 10:00 at the STE house. Two doors behind Avanti's
Elf Tao: he's not online anymore either - mayeb he got booted.
rwoods81 has left the room.
Elf Tao: yeesh.
Elf Tao: and I gotta leave in 15 for dinner
Citadel de EK: Landon leaves, and people drop like flies.
Simkus Vbah: bye everyone
Psi Phi Org: Well, I suppose this is as good of time as any to wrap things up.
Simkus Vbah: yeah.
Psi Phi Org: Maybe do this again next weekend?
Citadel de EK: Did we accomplish anything?
Psi Phi Org: Maybe. I'll have to go over the transcript to find out. :-)
Simkus Vbah: I prolly won't be on next saturday, I plan on being out
Elf Tao: not sure about me. we'll see.
Simkus Vbah: if I am about I will try it again
Psi Phi Org: ok
Citadel de EK: Cool.
Psi Phi Org: Certainly a lot of new ideas popped up. I'll sort through them and bring a list to the meeting on Wednesday.
Elf Tao: I'll be interested to read it in the minutes.
Elf Tao: *hint, hint*
Psi Phi Org: For a significant portion of the Reunion Committee report, you can go to http://www.psiphi.org/tmp/sector001/20040128
Psi Phi Org: Generally, for my stuff for each meeting, it's "yyyymmdd" in that directory.
Elf Tao: neat
Simkus Vbah: I am really looking forward to the reunion.
Psi Phi Org: Yeah, it'll be great for me to see all the people I haven't seen for years, and I'm sure it'll be a lot of fun for people to meet for the first time.
Psi Phi Org: "Oh, I've heard all about you"
Simkus Vbah: One other thing that we might want to look at is once we have a date checking with hotels in the area to see what kind of deals we might be able to get.
Citadel de EK: Xeen gives his goodbyes, as he was booted. And I send my goodbyes as well. I'm so very much looking forward to the reunion as well.
Elf Tao: ditto
Psi Phi Org: ok
Elf Tao: it'll be nice to meet you, rob

Simkus Vbah: bye
Psi Phi Org: Well, it's just us now.
Simkus Vbah: wow, jsut you and me, in two windows. :-)
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Psi Phi Org: Nearly two hours; that's pretty good.
Simkus Vbah: besides hotels rental cars might be good as well
Simkus Vbah: yeah, that is a long time
Psi Phi Org: Yeah.
Psi Phi Org: There's someone in the club who has a... hmm, either a friend or a brother, who works at a hotel in Morton (about 25 miles away), who might be able to get discounts for people who want to stay there.
Psi Phi Org: And checking on group rates would also be good.
Simkus Vbah: yeah. might be able to get some good rates and make it just that much easier for everyone to have something set up ahead of time.
Psi Phi Org: Yep.
Psi Phi Org: Especially if we can make shared room arrangements, to keep the number of rooms down.
Simkus Vbah: yeah, that would help keep the costs down. I am willing to share a room with any female.. uhh... with anyone. :-P
Psi Phi Org: :-)
Simkus Vbah has left the room.
