There will be a SWILnews forthcoming later in the week, when your trusty presidents are actually awake. (No, really! We mean it!) Fortunately, Retry is a habitual sleep-typer, so we are able to bring you these important pieces of information: (We apologize in advance for the non-humorous nature of this mailing, but this is important stuff and needs to be said now. We know you're all sorely disappointed, but rest easy knowing that we shall soon return to our own inimitable style.) 0) 12 Lemmings were playing golf in New Zealand. (Okay, we lied about being silly) 1) Freshman stuffing will take place tomorrow (that's Monday) afternoon, starting after lunch. We've got 382 mailboxes to stuff, so please come help if you've got the time. You can meet us in Sharples during lunch, or up at the mailroom afterwards. We'll be heading up to the mailroom at about 1:30. Remember, the more we are, the faster we'll be done, so please join us. 2) The first SWIL movie of the year is tomorrow night, at the usual time and place. (10 PM in Kirby.) We'll be showing "Something Wicked This Way Comes" (assuming we can find it in a nearby movie store.) Hope to see you all there! 3) Our annual showing of the Star Wars Trilogy will be taking place on Thursday night in Kirby. We'll be starting at 8 PM. Bring a friend! Bring an enemy! But don't bring your friend's enemy! Or your enemy's friend. But your enemy's enemy is your friend, so he's OK. 4) The activities fair will be next weekend. Come on out to table-sit with us. It's fun, and a great way to captu-- meet frosh. Also, as is traditional, we will be playing Live Chess. We'll even have a full 32 carpet squares! (Though they won't all match...) We still need the following pieces: Black King Black Queen 1 Black Rook 2 White Bishops 2 White Rooks All the pawns If you'll be available, please, please, please sign up! We're always lacking pieces, and we'd like to be able to field a full board (or at least the major pieces. Pawns can just be shoes...) 5) If you don't receive this message, please let us know so you can be deleted from the list. That's all for now. Stay tuned for a real SWILnews at a time and date soon to be disclosed. -- Abort, Retry, Ignore
