SFLIS Minutes - November 6, 2002

- There was a meeting last week, but no minutes.
- Results of the election:  It's a little unusual, but the presidential party
  increased its representation in both houses of congress.
  But enough of that.  Now it's time for the really important election - the
  SFLIS one:
  Everyone was running unopposed except for the scapegoat.  But that's ok.  We
  can always use two scapegoats.

  Co-presidents:  Josh Goldsborough and Megan Harper
  Treasurer:  Dennis Kintzman
  Secretary:  David Leach
  Mascot:  Rhianna Maakestad
  Co-Scapegoats:  Jon Maakestad and Josh Elliot
  SEx Director:  Lindsay (Josh E's owner)  Official sex goddess.
    (Someone suggested that to be inclusive, we should have a male sex goddess
     next time.)
  Film Critic:  Tim Rush (like the band, only cooler)
  The Charitable One:  Aaron Oehring  (one most likely to have a chair)
  Pinball Coordinator:  Marty Milder
  Mascot Keeper:  Michele Maakestad
  Sports Critic:  Tracie Michlin
  The Questioning One:  Peter Wezeman

  And so, everyone at the meeting was elected to something.
  Voting was almost unanimous for all positions, most had only one or two
  'nay's because we didn't want everything to be COMPLETELY unanimous.
  Electing Jon Maakestad as scapegoat, there was 1 yea, 1 nay, and everyone
  else abstained, so Josh used his presidential privelege to decide it.

- Lord of the Rings, the Two Towers, opens Wednesday Dec. 18, and we're going.
  Megan's organizing it.
  Harry Potter opens on November 15, probably.  Does anyone want to go to it?
