Meanwhile, Jackie and Benitez proved their [3. positive attribute] by propping properly. As a reward, they earned [4. plural noun]. Benitez [5. past tense transitive verb] a stuffed Dust Mite animal, and Jackie [6. past tense transitive verb] the Black Death. Arthur requested Herpes. We suggest that Arthur be [7. violent past participle action verb]. The moral of the story is, [8. verb in the imperative]! The kegger was [9. description] from 10-2 two weeks ago, on the 28th of February. Thanks to everyone who came early to help [10. verb] it. Special thanks to those who volunteered to help shop for supplies, including Susan, and Blake and Jerome, who got the Keg. Nick requested that people who hadn't yet activated their SCCS account follow him to [11. location] to get them [12. passive participle verb]. Susan died, and Jerome [13. past participle verb] her on the rear. We're not sure why Susan died. The threat of being [14. passive participle verb] by Arthur, or [15. passive participle verb] in grease revived her. Saturday Night [16. noun, capitalized] ideas, for future reference: Hitchhiker Radio Script reading Storyreadings Demonic Triathlon (consisting of [17. gerund], [18. gerund], and summoning [19. proper noun] from the ninth circle of [20. location].) Saturday Night [16. noun, capitalized] on March 20th will be card games, probably in [21. proper noun] Parlours. Sarah Hartman has been awarded the title, "Swarthmore Class of 2006", or SC-06 for short. Due to lack of heavy artillery, Susan was not canonized. She felt very [22. emotion] about this. It was decided that, in order to be declared St. Susan of Swarthmore, Martyr, she would have to become a Mawrtyr. She could have done this easily, by becoming part of Swarthmore Class of 2006, but she needed to get her sophomore [23. concrete noun] written and approved. Her canonization is postponed, pending her advisor's approval of her plan to major in Cthulhu Studies. Her sophomore paper is available for your [24. gerund] pleasure at http://www.swil.org/SWILnews/Spring04/StSusan.gif. The Swarthmore College Class of 2006 won the [25. game of chance] and received [26. artistic medium]. Designs for the 2004 SWILshirt are due at next meeting, March 20th, or by email to presidents @ swil.org by midnight the night before. NON-SWILBUSINESS: Andrew [27. past tense verb] 10th Kingdom episodes at 2:30, Sunday, in Science Center 199. Jim invited everyone to play frisbee golf with him after meeting. Andrew wrote incoherent things in the notes. Civ was planned, and occurred over break. This was Ben's idea; oddly enough, he didn't get to play. There was gaming after meeting, at 3 p.m. On March 17th, they opened the NJ River LINE. People like Jimmosk, Mark, Chris, and Noda rode on it.
