SFLIS Minutes - September 5, 2001

- Nothing's happening so far.  Ok, the meeting hasn't started yet.  But
  there's an ICON meeting going on.
  Lots of people are here, maybe to avoid being elected?
- SWAMP anime show on Sunday the 9th, S207 Poppajohn Business Admin. Bldg.
  1-8pm.
- Kurt Vonnegut "kicked ass."  He was at the IMU this week, in case you
  missed it.  Lots of fun, but a very long line and some people were
  turned away.
- Mindbridge meeting Saturday the 15th, Shelter #4 in Upper City Park,
  Iowa City.  There will be food there - hamburgers, hot dogs, buns, pop.
  Bring something to share if you want.  No alcohol allowed, according to
  the city.  Aiming to start at 5pm.
- ChakaCon is this weekend at the Starlight Motel in Waterloo.
  If Waterloo is too far.....
- You can come to Serendipity in Iowa City and see some space pirates.
  Maybe even be one.  Space pirates, outlaws, bounty hunters, a role-
  playing mystery game.  Saturday 8pm-midnight, cover charge is $3.
  And you can get a suntan at the same time.
- Elections.
    Co-Presidents:   the two Josh's.  Whichever of them shows up for the
  meetings will be president.
    Co-Co-President (and Web Guru):  Marty Milder who after being elected
      as co-co-president, volunteered to take over the SFLIS webpage.
    Treasurer:  Dennis Kintzman.
    Secretary:  David Leach.
    SEx Coordinators:  Catherine Schaff-Stump and Bryan Stump.
    Scapegoat Emerituses (Scapegoats Emeritus?):  Mick Hitch, RC Nelson,
      and Alois.
    Scapegoat:  John Maakestad.
    Entertainment Director:  Andy Wheeler.
  Everyone was running unopposed.
- Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire won a Hugo.
  Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon also won a Hugo.
- We have a last-minute nomination for office:  Jon and Michele's baby
  as mascot.  Or will he/she be next year's president?
- The Highlander 2 movie doesn't exist.  Keep repeating that to yourself
  and maybe you'll believe it.  If you think all the Highlander movies are
  bad, you haven't seen this one.
- Prereg deadline for ICON is Sept. 17.  You can do it right here at the
  meeting.
- Extradimensional space and nobody died this week.
- Our forms for being a recognized student group are due soon.  We'll
  take care of it.
- We'll be taking a few boxes of books from the SFLIS desk to the
  hospital sometime.
- As the meeting gradually fades away, we end up with a discussion of the
  relative merits of Initial D, Ranma, Tenchi, and others, and what we'd
  like to see on tv.
  And don't dis Astro Boy - that's our heritage.  There might be some
  questions about the lyrics on the next SWAMP member quiz, so start
  studying now.
