Saturday Agenda

[etumukutenyak]

We had our inaugural Family Meeting this morning. Honey called the meeting to order at 9:30, and as there were no minutes to review we jumped right into item #1 on our agenda: Outside Activity -- upon presentation of the suggested activities, and review of the predicted weather, we voted to delay this item to tomorrow. Item #2 -- Indoor Activity -- we reviewed the suggested activities and prioritized them. After a brief discussion of the personnel assigned to specific tasks, we moved on to the upcoming site visitors, who will be here at the same time as the Opening Ceremonies for the Olympics.

The Chair also pointed out that the family has been working hard lately to keep the house getting cleaner, and she praised the department staff for their efforts in this matter.


We discussed the social obligations for the coming week, and then adjourned the meeting.


Future items of discussion to include (1) school lunch menus (2) school items shopping, primarily clothing and disposables.


ObFeline: Brady was in a playful mood this morning, so he started playing with Buzz's tail from under the bathroom door. Buzz watched Brady with big eyes, and mreh-ed at him a few times, then walked away.

Might I enquire as to whether there was a quorum?

[etumukutenyak.livejournal.com]

There was indeed a quorum. All members were in attendance, in fact. The ex officio members sat in the visitors gallery and the reporters were thankfully absent.

Then you may not have been in compliance with the Sunshine Law.

[etumukutenyak.livejournal.com]

Ah..I recall that it was somewhat cloudy at the time, so no -- there was no Sunshine involved at all.

We'll have to figure out where to put the door so we can ignore it, thus violating the Hatch Act too.

[fledgist.livejournal.com]

The Hatch Act doesn't apply to legislative sessions, but if there were any staid lions or immoral porpoises around then you'd be in violation of the Mann Act.

[etumukutenyak.livejournal.com]

True, but it does apply to Federal employees.. ;-)

All lions here will be sedate, and all seagoing birds will be young.

[fledgist.livejournal.com]

Why, so it does. Especially when they're bushwhacked.

[etumukutenyak.livejournal.com]

That's where we get to smack him, right?

[fledgist.livejournal.com]

Don't we all wish.

[etumukutenyak.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't it be great if -- instead of donating $2.00 to the whatever fund -- we could check a box on our tax returns for spanking the Decider?

[fledgist.livejournal.com]

There'd be a long line.

[etumukutenyak.livejournal.com]

Well, you'd donate $2.00 towards the upkeep and maintenance of the spanker, who would deliver the requested amount during the year (and not just during tax season). In this day and age of automation, computer technology, and YouTube, I envision an online webcam access to the Presidential correction.

[fledgist.livejournal.com]

Just one spanker. S/he would get tired fast.

[etumukutenyak.livejournal.com]

I'm sure this could be addressed by some form of automation, i.e., a robot spanker -- with a cute face like that Honda robot.

[fledgist.livejournal.com]

Hmm. That has possibilities.

Good thing e coli wasn't on the agenda -- did you see a lot of Boy Scouts at Goshen, VA, camp came down with it?

[etumukutenyak.livejournal.com]

Yes, and we missed out by only a few weeks.
