(Wow! This is such a great theme! It's so easy to write! -g) (Yeah! Where did you get the idea? -s) (I had a mailbox called "themes". -g) (I wish we'd known about that months ago. -d) (Well, this was the only one left, because Stone told me Joe had complained no one ever let him write a backwards SWILNews. -g) (Yeah! This really *is* a great theme! -Snibor Eoj) Submit to BEM! The Kegger will be scheduled for the weekend of Feb 15/16th, depending on when we can get Paces. If you signed up to help (we know where you live -s) you will get an e-mail as soon as Stone stops being lazy. (Or rather, as soon as Stone finishes typing up the movie blubs. ( -g) movie blurbs. -s) If you want to help out but weren't at meeting, e-mail Stone. () Next Monday's movie is Orlando. The IMDb describes it as: Science fiction / 1992 -- Based upon Virginia Woolf's novel; a comely, immortal youth experiences life from the point of view of both sexes as s/he moves through four centuries of social change. Movie Nominations happened. Keep your eyes peeled (ewwww -s) for a brand spanking new... MOVIE NOMINATIONS E-MAIL!!!!!! Coming soon to a mailbox near you! *** Sentience Proofs *** Katie McAllister Sentient beings can turn unfortunate situations to their advantage. Katie had to write a 7-page paper for religion over October break. She turned it to her advantage by writing on the Lord of the Rings. Also, sentient beings are nice to fellow sentient beings. Katie demonstrated her niceness by bring in candy. (The tootsie rolls tasted like mint! It was gross! -s) (But they didn't kill us. -g) (What doesn't kill us makes us stranger. -d) We voted Katie sentient because she bribed us. [Editor's Note: This sentience was voted with the proviso that, should we all die from ingesting the candy, her sentience would be revoked ex post facto.] (I get to use cool phrases like ingest and ex post facto, because I'm a classicist. -s) (Ingest is a cool phrase? -g) (Yes. Hush. -s) Ben Mitchell (aka Just Ben) First Ben asked if we would all concede that he was present at meeting. Since he had not yet signed the attendance list, we said no. Ben then said that since he was not present, and yet we all responded to his question anyway, he was clearly a superior being and he declared himself sentient. (Many of us took exception to the fact that we had not accepted that he was present, not that we had accepted that he wasn't present. (Whew! -s) -d) Then he signed the attendance list. Because he was present at meeting and a Swattie, he claimed to understand the concept of delayed gratification. His example of this was that he spent his weekend writing a paper, rather than having fun right away. There was much heckling, mostly over the fact that he could just have written his paper because he was irrational. Rachel pointed out that his fingers end, and since he has terminating digits, he must be rational. Therefore we voted him sentient because he has terminating digits. *** SWILLottery *** Ben Newman, whose birthday it was, won a pocket rocket launcher. (You are a cruel and shallow person! -~Elliot) (Yeah, well, you broke my heart! Get over the fricking bubblegum! -s) (You have a heart of stone! -~Elliot) ( -g) (You hit him for me! You're my hero. Maybe even the number one love of my life. -s) (Oh, fine then! -~Elliot) *** NonSWILBusiness *** This week's MST3K will be on *Tuesday* at *10:00 p.m.*, in Trotter 203, episode 312 - Gamera vs. Guiron, which some of you may remember from Schlock two years ago (this version is dubbed, not subtitled, which makes it much funnier). We held an Unnecessary SWILVote. In the event that BDan is elected president, he will *still* have no NonSWILBusiness privileges. Because it's funny, that's why. *** The Attendance List of Owls and Cupcakes -- 11/17/01 *** Arcadia "all-powerful van driver" Falcone (Why take a van when you can take a plane? -s) ( -g) (Now there's broccoli in my milk! -g) Lady of "H.D. does embroidery, so technically it's part of Arcadia's thesis" Shalott Raoul "Sartre sez movie nominations precede essence" Bagley Matt "Our prodigal son is returned to us!" Fowles Sony "I have returned from the stomach of the beast." Clie (Ah. That's where you came from. Matt?
